*Official* Pakistan in New Zealand 2020/21

Grant Elliott is constantly on the line between ‘is he dopey’ and ‘is he taking the piss’, and I’m only just catching up to the fact it’s the latter. He is constantly dropping outrageous double entendres too and I’m increasingly thinking they are all deliberate.

He's an absolute dream to listen to... that accent.

I dunno, I’ve found he sort of drones on haphazardly and you’re never quite sure where he’s coming from...but as I say, I think I’ve just been slow to pick up on the fact that he’s rather droll and cheeky

I don’t think anyone could possibly make that many by accident lol

Critiquing cricinfo commentary is redundant, but whoever is doing this game has been laughably biased towards Pakistan. He pretty much made out that Faheem was bowling like Hadlee and all NZ runs have been edges.

agreed - didn't even acknowledge Nicholls passing 2000 test runs until we sent about 5 messages through haha.

Yeah and yesterday you would’ve thought Rizwan and Azhar were doing it easy rather than playing and missing all over the place

I wonder if Taylor and Nicholls would ever swap in the order? Feel like Nicholls is better suited to grafting through the tougher spells these days and then Taylor could come in with a bit less pressure and add some icing (not that he’d want to come in and face spin straight away, though, I guess that’s the drawback).

I think when Taylor retires, Nicholls will go up to 4. Conway at 5 perhaps? Although probably better to have Conway in top 4. Hmmmm.

Cricinfo commentary is always garbage when Pakistan and India play.

Depending on who's doing it, England matches can also have a remarkable level of salt.

There's just something so definite and murderous about a Kane Williamson block. Absolute perfection.

Actually feel ever since the McCullum captaincy era they’ve been generally very complimentary about NZ, especially the bowlers. And ever since they made the discovery that Watling and Wagner are rather good they can’t stop gushing about those two.

I think this might be it for Naseem for now. He needs to go back and work things out. I like the kid but he's obviously been called up too early, as has been evident for some time now.
