*Official* Sri Lanka in New Zealand 2022/23

[Prince EWS]

I want to say it’s ridiculous this home season is still going, but tbf it looks like beautiful weather and a packed house

It never rains in NZ in April.

Mitchell dropped catch off Milne
SL 39/0 still in to 1st power play

Some commentary from Rigor that last over. Mendis hits it over square leg for 6 and the commentary is entirely about how square leg (in the circle) might catch it, not acknowledging it actually went for 6 until the next ball is bowled

 

[thierry henry]

Rachin’s having a shocker

 

[G. S. Kohli]

Crappy Ravindra Rachin
He just Dropped a catch plus 2/0/27/0,
not know how to pitch the ball on right area.

 

[G. S. Kohli]

Nz likeky to chase 210 if Asalanka also bats same as mendis k

 

[G. S. Kohli]

Kusal Mendis likely to Drill Ireland's *u** at Galle in 4 innings this very mos.

Jeez I thought the more she was looking at it the more it looked out. Think there might have been an illusion from the behind angle that he was touching the rope when he wasn’t

 

[kaetor]

I think it was not out by about a frame or two, super tight. I'm glad to see SL put up a total so I'm not complaining though

 

[Socerer 01]

Nissanka wasting nearly 10 overs at 100 sr will be the talking point at the end

James Marshall on radio comms saying Ian Butler had a strong arm in the field. Itstl. Makes sense though, given he was suppose to be quick.

I feel like this is an apocryphal story you hear about various bowlers, but I’m reliably informed that Butler once bowled a “6 byes” (which is actually only 4 byes) at my club’s home ground. It’s vaguely believable since it’s an artificial pitch with very short straight boundaries.

Is it just me or is the camera work today particularly shoddy? Almost makes you think camera men aren’t overly interested and like my Spark subscription are into their final hour.

Has been shocking. Also with the glare it’s just generally really hard to follow the ball. Pretty much 90% of watching this game you can’t see the ball.

Seifert batting the house down since I said he couldn’t bat

 

[wellAlbidarned]

seifert bats kinda like a less talented right handed Warner

Reverse to @Athlai's post about Arshdeep.

God dammit. I just went to suspend my subscription, only to find that it rolled over for another month 20 minutes ago. The next 10 overs better be the best cricket ever.

I guess the selectors have proved me wrong about Seifert.
