***Official***Match #41- New Zeland vs Sri Lanka - November 9th - Bengaluru (D/N)

[Fuller Pilch]

The Pakistani players must be feeling sick to their stomach watching the Lankans meekly lie down like this.

What do you mean? SL are fighting hard but faced early swing, decent pace, and now an ATG spell of SLA.

 

[Adorable Asshole]

Santner is the shortest international cricketer who is constantly described as tall like it’s a defining characteristic #heightchat

What's his height?

 

[King Kane]

Ferguson bowling well again but I'm not sure we should be bowling him now when he could get injured again.

I'd be tempted to keep him on ice for the semis and bowl Phillips or Rachin instead.

Santner’s figures

 

[White Ball]

The Pakistani players must be feeling sick to their stomach watching the Lankans meekly lie down like this.

Barring rain they're pretty much 95% done & dusted for this World Cup.

To be fair if you want to qualify you shouldn’t be relying on others to help you.

 

[thierry henry]

What's his height?

Probably a shade over 6’. He’s certainly not short but it’s odd how often commentators go out of their way to mention that he’s tall.

Maybe because he looks lanky. He always gave me a taller impression than Southee.

 

[Athlai]

This Theekshana 200 will be incredible

 

[Athlai]

Bowl it even slowerrrrr

 

[King Kane]

Theekshana is more like Woakes than Maxwell, a very handy lower order batsman but I don't think he is capable of a 200 off about 100 balls.

Southee and Santner

 

[The Hutt Rec]

First 8 overs run rate: 8.75
Next 21 overs run rate: 2.62

 

[Athlai]

Catchable that

 

[thierry henry]

Theekshana all over Santner tbh

 

[Adorable Asshole]

Southee and Santner

I used to think Southee was 6'.

 

[Shri]

think game is safely done

 

[Athlai]

Deserved more than 2 there. The drop didn't help but ah well. Enjoyable spell

 

[The Hutt Rec]

They could only find four highlights for the 21-30 overs montage.

 

[Ghost]

Good figures those for Santner, chew for chewnty chew

 

[King Kane]

Can't fault Athers knowledge of the game, he seems to know more about the history of NZ cricket than even Smithy does.
