*Official* Pakistan v New Zealand in the UAE 2018

[NZTailender]

I love that they're showing Pakistans next test squad for SA and one of the current players at the crease is not in it

Since apparently no-one cares that I saw one of the GOATs just walking down an Auckland street, I’ll add that Rahul is about 5’10” but initially seems taller because he’s very skinny

I was actually about to ask this

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Yea I think I was thrown off by how how throws his left arm in the air before running in. Now I'm used to it and it's actually pretty smooth.

Somerville still bugs me. Something weird about it.

ajaz doesn't quite follow through with his right arm properly

 

[trundler]

They're going to be absolutely wrecked in SA. It's going to be a thrashing for the ages.

 

[trundler]

Imagine if Somerville had a legion of leg side catchers. Bring those back.

 

[trundler]

Amusing over.

 

[trundler]

One of the dumbest batting displays countered by the most obvious trap.

 

[Flem274*]

turns out it looked a lot more out than it was.

lol at the whole team going up for lbw instead of worrying about hitting a dude in the head. baz' reign ancient history in this aspect haha

Current bowling strike rate: 45.0
Required bowling strike rate: 51.0

 

[Moss]

Camaan one more before tea.

 

[straw man]

This pair survives the half hour til tea and they'll start to get some belief that they can save the match for Pakistan.

[Flem274*]

looking a bit easier now

 

[trundler]

Fitting that he should get out to Southee.

 

[NZTailender]

OK Southee all is forgiven I'm sorry I rubbished you earlier in the test

[trundler]

Been a brilliant game, especially for a test in the UAE.
