***Official***Match #16- New Zealand vs Afghanistan- October 18th-Chennai (D/N)

Latham is stuck in the same fever dream I was in for a whole season of playing T20. The harder I swung the more singly were my singles.

 

[James]

They haven't dropped another one have they

 

[Molehill]

I've not been watching that closely, but how many drops is that now?

 

[Athlai]

Rashid why no catch

 

[straw man]

6

that last one was very difficult though

 

[Athlai]

Yeah that gets taken maybe 5%

 

[King Kane]

A four from Latham, he is on the charge.

 

[Tom Flint]

Not really a drop that from rawhide but 3 of the other 4 were as bad as they come. One in the slips was pretty simple too.

 

[Athlai]

Tom Acceleratham over here

 

[thierry henry]

Even though I've seen it heaps of times, it does still amaze me how far Phillips can hit the ball when he's stationary and he's making all the pace on the ball.

 

[GIMH]

Haven't been able to watch much of this due to meetings, is this a decent recovery or a below par score?

 

[Shady Slim]

bizarre game. you'd think if you said nz were four down against afghanistan in the 46th with afghanistan having an all time bad day in the field 320 or so would be potentially on the cards but even having been given every chance they haven't run away with the game yanno?

Not clear really. Feels like 250 would be Afghanistan on top for sure though

 

[ashley bach]

That's it Tommy

 

[Athlai]

Tom Acceleratham over here

Yessss

A recovery was required but imo they scored a bit slower than necessary. Absolutely smashing it now so every chance we make 280+ and this partnership ends up looking very good

 

[Athlai]

Tom wants his ton

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

Latham's 8th innings of the, err, innings, is proving to be his best.

 

[Moss]

Was a top bowling effort in the middle overs without the wickets to show for it. Needed respect for sure.

 

[King Kane]

Looks like Latham got the bat that hits fours and sixes.

About time.
