*Official* New Zealand in Bangladesh 2023/24

[Athlai]

Looked like it popped up onto his fingertips after he took it too, which is not a good look

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Blundell been poor today. Catching fishes

 

[Athlai]

Not a costly drop

 

[King Kane]

Ajaz finally getting some reward for some good bowling with the new ball.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

A quick 25 from Sohan will be handy now

 

[Athlai]

Gotta love the three reds

Dwta. Would not be ideal

 

[Aritro]

They've been terrible at picking the variation deliveries today. All at sea against googlies and arm balls.

It's one of those catches where you're just never really sure.
What was bizarre though is the TV umpire repeatedly saying I've got fingers under the ball.
After repeating this phrase three times he now suddenly says the balls touching the ground.
Contradicted himself something terrible there.

 

[ataraxia]

Been quite a nice test, hasn't it, and as I write Nurul tries to defy me. When we chase this 3 down it will feel pretty sweet.

Shamim should have been bungee jumping safety instructor

Fingers aren't larger than a ball, he was only semi under it

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Jamieson is unplayable right now

 

[ashley bach]

ataraxia no shortage of confidence in our batting.

 

[Athlai]

Bat?

 

[Athlai]

Absolute howler from the umpire

 

[Kenneth Viljoen]

Shocking decision to give that out. Thank God for DRS

I don’t think that was the ruling, it was that he caught it cleanly and then the ball touched the ground as he rolled taking the catch, while it was in his hands.

Yeah cos he didn't catch it, it hit his hand, then when collecting it, it touched the ground. It wasn't "pouched"

 

[Kenneth Viljoen]

Is Mitchell the worst slip fielder NZ has ever had? He's dropped a few..
