Jeets over Santner was a dumb move.

nope.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

nope.

what serious short-term advantage does jeets offer, given the point of santner was as a long term investment?

winning a series against South Africa

i thought howsie was the only one with a time machine

 

[Fuller Pilch]

The best thing about picking Jeets over Santner was that we had to pick CDG instead of Matt Henry. Go big man.

the quinton specialist did well to get his man today. only scored 90 odd

If kane is only going to bowl 5-10 overs of spin an innings like he has most of the summer baring Dunedin, than yes you can play Santner as an alrounder. But that is more of a reflection on Kane's captaincy..

where's the evidence that patel offers a genuine threat with the ball? he still bowls every single ball at the same pace and from the same crease position after over a decade as a spinner.

You will see in South Africa's second innings. Well, that's if KW figures out how to rotate bowlers properly.

robbing southee of his hard earned 5-fer

robbing southee of his hard earned 5-fer

Tbf Southee got Cdg his wickets

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Tbf Southee got Cdg his wickets

yeah southee has looked much improved following the kick up the butt. needs to happen far more often.

 

[Athlai]

For those keeping track at home, four more wickets in this series and Southee will have a new top wickets in a season.

 

[straw man]

I take back what I said earlier about Wagner's seam position being better than it used to be . That was as an affront to seam bowling, though it worked.

Could be a difficult period for our openers tonight.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

lets just forget that you can bowl normally at the tail shall we

 

[Daemon]

First Lakmal and now Morkel. Tail wagging's just the best/worst depending which side you're on. So fun.

 

[straw man]

THIS IS NOT FUN!!!!
