*Official* Match #11 (D/N) - New Zealand vs Bangladesh - October 13th, Chennai

I don’t know if I like Shakib lower down the order this game his usually their guy to rescue the collapse

What is Rahim doing at #6? They have experienced and good batters, but can't get their batting order right!

Was it the right call to chase on this pitch? Looks like a bat first pitch to me.

 

[Aritro]

I've prepared a mock-up of how Mitchell Santner's action should always be presented

What is Rahim doing at #6? They have experienced and good batters, but can't get their batting order right!

So people want Rahim, Hridoy, Shakib all to bat at the top while management wants Tanzid and Mehedi to bat at the top.

Field day for Lock

 

[ataraxia]

Dunno if it's just me but I felt that shot went loads further than Das'.

His front arm falls away too soon though, doesn't it?

 

[King Kane]

The short ball plan pays off, Lockie is sending down some heat.

 

[Moss]

Pleased to see Lockie's pace back today. Promising signs.

Guys observe 1 thing

Lockie has been bad since some time, leaking tons of runs and not taking any wickets

In IPL he was bad too

But he wasn't playing under Kane Williamson

I think Kane with his strategies brings out the best in him

Same like Dhoni used to do with many bowlers

 

[Andyhere]

These are decent conditions to bat and BD just gifting wickets instead of keeping wicket in hand, taking it deep and posting 250 - 260.

 

[ashley bach]

That was a very AFL-esque catch from Henry too

Hoping this means Buffy has come to the party.

 

[NZTailender]

lmao Phillips

the Piranha feasts again

 

[trundler]

Well it was nice to fancy an upset but BD just not up to it. NZ looking scary.

 

[ashley bach]

Decent crowd tbh

Is that @honestbharani I saw there with a hot-dog in one hand and chips in the other?

So people want Rahim, Hridoy, Shakib all to bat at the top while management wants Tanzid and Mehedi to bat at the top.

Just makes more sense to have the more experience and successful batters up front to deal with the new ball and that. And now they find themselves in a deep hole without much partners left to rescue it

 

[Moss]

Jeez what are Bangladesh doing?

Phillips sure is proving useful at the bowling crease.

 

[King Kane]

Old golden arm Phillips strikes again.

Won't matter if this not 'so smart' batting can't even post a decent total!

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

The batting order is all wrong. If they are gonna keep changing and playing musical chair, this might be our worst world cup and we had some pretty horrible world cups before
