*Official* Match #11 (D/N) - New Zealand vs Bangladesh - October 13th, Chennai

The tough period has been seen through one feels

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

This is now far too easy just noodling

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Williamson looks ominous. The way he absorbed the pressure early on and now playing with authority

 

[Aritro]

This is now far too easy just noodling

Yeah depressing. Would be nice to have a few wickets just for the scorecard. Can't do much without scoreboard pressure.

Also it has to be said our quicks are better on the gluepots at home for some reason. They just seem to know what to do.

Also, EbaGOAT.

 

[Kenneth Viljoen]

Bangladesh were much better than this during qualifying, they are playing really average cricket.

 

[King Kane]

Conway and Williamson are in the zone now.

If you don't get them out early you're in trouble.

 

[Aritro]

Williamson looks ominous. The way he absorbed the pressure early on and now playing with authority

The annoying thing is the Kiwis were allowed to get away with having 14 fielders on the field and we've been restricted to 8.

Gah ****ing idiot, another drop. For ****'s sake.

 

[King Kane]

It doesn't help when you drop catches either.

 

[Aritro]

We drop high difficulty catches that other teams take against us and the Deshi commentators issue platitudes about how it was a tough chance.

I'm glad Ian Smith just called it out and say you've got to take those at this level.

Williamson looking good...Who knew a world class elite player would produce

Pure Class

Yeah the Williamson doubters will be crying themselves to sleep now

 

[Andyhere]

Timely breakthrough

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Bangladesh were much better than this during qualifying, they are playing really average cricket.

I dont know I think the weird pitches at home gives us false sense of security in bilateral series. I am actually pretty sure about this now. We could have Tamim and him captaining but the results would not change much than what we are seeing here. We will remain bang average.

 

[Neil Young]

Kane forced him into that review. Conway knew it was plumb.

 

[King Kane]

Conway in trouble here, that looks out.

And he's gone.

Why do batsmen keep playing the reverse sweep when they don't need to? Just an unnecessary risk.

 

[Neil Young]

A Boy Named Daryl.

 

[King Kane]

Mitchell close to being out too.

We are doing our best to make this exciting.

They play it well. For a lot of them, it's a percentage shot.

 

[King Kane]

They play it well. For a lot of them, it's a percentage shot.

It can be a good run scoring shot but it comes with the risk of losing your wicket.

Runs aren't the problem for us here, losing wickets could be though

 

[Molehill]

Looks like dew is now becoming a factor which will negate the spin threat. NZ should chase these down comfortably now, although probably won't get a boost to the NRR (not that one is really needed if you keep winning games).
