Just kick the stumps over seriously

Seemed like they went for DRS as reward for how well he was bowling to Green; never looked out.

Can't imagine he's ever being given LBW on anything hitting above knee roll.
Would be nice for Green to trade in the toothpick he's brought out to the middle for an actual cricket bat

After that over, Smith should try to hog the strike to protect Green.

He’s so tense it’s ridiculous. So tight in the shoulders, if he was a boxer he’d be worn out by half way through round two.

Was a lot closer than it looked in the end. Only just over. Still a bad review

Greaves is considered a batsman and doesn't even bowl every innings for his domestic side, but this is immaucate seam presentation from decent height at mid 130s every ball. He sprays it occasionally but seriously there's a frontline bowler in there - at least domestically!

And he hammers one straight to the only fielder in front of the wicket

Yeah this is a serious spell. Absolutely not just dibbly-dobbler areas.

If JDS can develop into a serviceable six they could potentially play Greaves at seven in the right conditions and he’ll be a genuine wicket taking option
the batting is still pretty bad overall for the Windies but there’s some good signs with their attack. There hasn’t been one of their bowlers who I’ve thought looked really terrible. All contributed something at different times

I don't think we can play Green in the NZ Tests unless he somehow turns this around tomorrow and makes 60 or 70. At least not as a batsman.
Unfortunate because his bowling was excellent today
Michael Neser would bat a lot better than Green has this series

Bright side, he's done a perfect night-watchman role here

I think they're probably one top-tier bat short of having a pretty good team. I think their Top 4 isn't too bad, problem is that none of them are really 45+ averaging guns.

Yeah I thought the same about Mayers. They're not really good enough in the roles they've been picked in but they average low 20s with the ball domestically despite being under bowled and you can see why. Having one of them bat seven and take their bowling more seriously would be a good thing for them IMO.

Thanks to C Green, T Head doesn’t have to come out and get going first ball
