***Official***Match #35 - New Zealand vs Pakistan - November 4th - Bengaluru

[RossTaylorsBox]

Lol they forgot to study the tapes

 

[King Kane]

Couple of streaky shots from Conway but they both went for four so all good.

 

[Athlai]

almost though I'm not sure it's possible to take 55 wickets in just one innings

The shark hungers

 

[straw man]

So what do we reckon par is? Fairly roady so far.

Rachin and Conway will go at full pelt, as they should. But if we lose a wicket or two, need to work out if we're targeting 320-350 or more like 250-280.

 

[honestbharani]

The last minute flick by Ravindra is just so good - Ramiz Raja, Nov 2023.

 

[Athlai]

Fmd Ravindra is a highlight reel of great 4s today

 

[Daemon]

I think that's the best four I've seen all tournament. So ***y.

Thankfully Babar is such a bad captain he hasn't thought of putting a leg slip or leg gully in for Conway.

Gotta say 320 at the moment but we should have a better idea of what they want after the powerplay

 

[centurymaker]

Slow start but we are getting going now.



We will need a big total to help our bowlers with scoreboard pressure, it's not a bowling line up that we can rely on to run through a batting line up.

It's a flat deck (with tiny boundaries). Similar to Aus-Pak game.

Par score is maybe 330-350

DLS might be factor too so would need more to safeguard against it giving relatively easier targets in shortened game.

 

[straw man]

I PMed Moss and told him to bring his vuvuzela.

I assume some stadia must have just banned them? Huge difference between games with and without.

India games they seem to be handed out for free

 

[King Kane]

Ravindra cutting loose now.

 

[straw man]

We're targeting him with the ball, but Iftikhar's batting would fit in really nicely down at 7 for us. Should borrow him imo.

 

[Athlai]

Revising par score to 500 after the latest info from commentary

 

[Daemon]

Quick start from NZ. Here’s Rauf to stem the flow..

I would happily swap Latham for Rizwan too.

Sarcasm?

I mean this is the one right here, can we take Shah Afridi too

 

[Athlai]

They call him the plumber because he gets the tap
