***Official*** Pakistan in New Zealand 2016/17

Why did Flem get banned. What did he do wrong?

Attacks on Blocky rather than his posting, I assume.

Why isn't everyone banned then?

 

[indiaholic]

Good question.

Blocky got banned too

Doesnt seem fair to ban a user for calling out a ****** poster you were gonna ban too anyways. If Blocky wasn't posting in a bannable manner then Flem wouldnt have reacted the way he did and gotten banned too.

I'll delete any further posts on the matter.

Class innings from Taylor, maybe not the toughest circumstances to bat in but someone needed to take the responsibility of building a lead. Should also acknowledge his first innings effort which in hindsight was useful from both a team and individual perspective.Quite a relief really considering a lot of people here were wondering if he was done. Let's just hope he's as keyed up when the Saffers (whom he has never done well against) visit later this season.

seriously, someone from Pakistan should start a tab on the number of dropped catches off Amir

also, is there trouble in the ranks where guys don't want Amir taking wickets?

NZ should have batted for at least another 20 overs. Why even give them a sniff? Track is flat, dead flat. This should be right up UAE Khan's alley but hopefully the lads won't let him get that outside SC average from 39 to 40+.

Any sign of swing this morning?

Any sign of swing this morning?

Nope. It certainly looks quite nice for batting. NZ need lots of patience today.

Not really. Nothing in the pitch either.

I am seething at the stupidity of Kane's decision to declare. Regardless of the outcome to allow them a sniff on a pancake pitch with a series lead at stake is incredibly dense.

 

[straw man]

Nah, they need nearly four an over and would have to bat extremely well to even get close.

 

[Zinzan]

Lol @ Doully telling everyone about Mark Richardson's cramp video as if people don't already know...

This looks like an absolute pancake. 4 an over is no longer an insurmountable challenge. Another 15 overs for 60 runs and they would have killed the game off.

Not exactly motoring towards the target here to be fair.

Declaration was fine, they will have to bat immensely well to get anywhere near it.

While these are both true, where's the fun in that? Pakistan have a small chance at winning yes, but NZ have a much larger opportunity and their chance to win is probably higher by giving Pakistan a sniff.
