Is Will O'Rourke the best fast bowling prospect since Shane Bond for NZ ?

That has to be Jamieson imo.

 

[Chin Music]

I see that the weather is dodgy all match and it makes India winning the toss and batting strange, although I guess I think they wanted to put a big enough score on the board and just bowl NZ out twice. Surely NZs plan has to be to come out and attack, get bowled out about 200 runs ahead and then blast India out for the second time!

 

[_Ed_]

Five-fer and 100 wickets for Henry!

 

[morgieb]

Gotta say, looking a lot more comfortable out there since lunch despite the wickets.

If true that’s gotta be one for the toss decisions Hall of Shame.

 

[Spark]

Impeccable catching performance full of screamers and then one bloke who simply forgot to catch the ball

 

[SteveNZ]

That has to be Jamieson imo.

Yep it was Jamieson, when he was in God mode at home and we thought this 6 foot 8 guy bowling rockets would be unplayable forever. Then Hesson gave him a $2.5m IPL contract and it all went down hill

 

[PlayerComparisons]

Hopefully these two destroy the Bazballers later this year

 

[SteveNZ]

Hahaha there isn't a reason in the world why Macewell went one hand there

 

[King Kane]

India all out for 46 and a deserved 5'fer for Henry.

Hopefully our batsmen don't stuff this up by being bowled out for a low total too.

They are different styles of fast bowlers, he is more like Jamieson than Bond who was more express pace, but he is a great prospect nonetheless.

 

[Skyliner]

5/15 for Henry. What a disgrace he didn’t play in Sri Lanka.

 

[morgieb]

One run less than Cape Town.

lol

Commentator rn:-

 

[SteveNZ]

Stead can get ****ed if he claims any part of this. Just like when he discovered by accident/injury that Rachin was a gun ODI opener

 

[Spark]

One run less than Cape Town.

lol

Alas for NZ, also one run more than Cape Town.

 

[Gob]

Tim's going to be full of ultimatums after this showing

 

[Gob]

Bumrah will **** **** up here though

 

[Silver Silva]

It just sums up NZ's luck that there is probably little chance this test can get enough play to have a result with the heavy rains for the rest of the test match . Tomorrow there 80% chance of rain , the next day 100% and day 5 is 90% lol even the weather can save India in India

 

[sayon basak]

At least India played more overs than Pakistan.

 

[Moss]

Seems like it was a masterclass in making helpful conditions count. Super stuff NZ. Hope the batters can stand up, won’t be much fun against Bumrah and co.
