HB has taken an enforced holiday I think

giz a game

Huh, I didn't realise he was banned. Hope you're still enjoying the thread HB!

 

[Howe_zat]

Good to see Bres kept a cool head in what looks like a nervy chase. Captain's knock

Bowled brilliantly to put the pressure on NZ early on. 19 (57) and 8 (22) from their openers.

 

[Howe_zat]

No changes for round 9, I could bring back Strauss for Thorpe but they're both making single figures so w/e

Man of the match: Asif Mujtaba

What a match! And what an innings from Mujataba. Although Sidhu did ok with the ball (took his first ever wicket), Shri might need to think about employing an actual all-rounder in his team.
