*Official* New Zealand in Sri Lanka

Well done to Dilshan. Man of the match performance surely - both innings have given SL a much greater chance of winning rather than drawing this match.

The bug list is McIntosh, Flynn, Ryder, McCullum, Oram, Patel and Martin

So that leaves a top order of Guptill, Taylor, Vetorri, O'Brien

The bold move would be for Sri Lanka to declare now. New Zealand aren't going to get 413 in four sessions, especially with so many of them ill. Could get four or five in the hutch tonight.

To which they have. We need to bat out 34 overs tonight.

Dawg, the highest 4th innings scores at this ground are
England 210/9
South Africa 203/3
Sri Lanka 154
Sri Lanka 136
Pakistan 117

Don't think many sides would fluff about with history like that behind them

Hopefully we can get something along the lines of that SA score :happy:

Hope he keeps on going all the way to a 100 personally. I hope guys like Taylor and McCullum can HTFU and not get out playing a stupid shot.
Not going to be too critical on Baz as he was sick but Taylor really needs to sort out his mentality. Did all the hard work vs M and M only to gift his wicket to the seamers.

Just makes the decision to pick two spinners and then bowl first all the more puzzling.
Yeah I thought if you win the toss and play two spinners, you batted first for that reason. Anyway, it has started raining, all part of the plan :ph34r:
