***Official*** South Africa in New Zealand 2017

[_Ed_]

Henry didn't even appeal. That's probably a sign that it's not worth reviewing, Kane.

 

[Nate]

Latham
Raval
Williamson
Taylor
Munro
Watling
CdG
Santner
Henry
Wagner
Boult

is what I'd like to see (with my limited knowledge).

NZ with the drs are like an 18 year old who's just discovered poker

Did you just drop Ross Taylor?

 

[Burgey]

NZ in with a very good shout at this here. Sounds like a bloody unlucky dismissal but it's a handy pick up for NZ nonetheless. How is the deck holding up? Will it still be pretty true tomorrow?

more like an 18 year old who's just discovered...oh i see what you did there

 

[Moss]

The first time in over a decade NZ are in with a reasonable chance against South Africa. Missing Boult badly but the attack (ok the seamers) have done well so far.

 

[_Ed_]

Both reviews gone. FFS. We'd better not get a shocker now.

 

[Prince EWS]

There will be a lot of "lol NZ suck so much at DRS" posts rolling in now, but tbf I actually thought that second one was out. First one was madness though.

 

[Spark]

I just saw a video of the run out.

Uh.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

they spend their chips early either way

 

[Athlai]

Won't need reviews when we bring Jeets on.

I mean this in a positive sense.

 

[The Hutt Rec]

For a risk averse captain, Williamson goes all in on reviews like he owes a couple of hundred grand and has to pay it tomorrow or he's gonna lose a thumb.

 

[straw man]

ICC needs to give New Zealand 10 reviews per innings so we can waste them in even more impressive and imaginative ways.

 

[_Ed_]

I just saw a video of the run out.

Uh.

Yep. One of the least enjoyable NZ wickets ever.

I thought it was Smith who said that, although I was watching at the Backbencher and slightly distracted. In any case, it seemed a bizarre comment as the more obvious water related sport would have been diving.

Delighted to see de Grandhomme notching his maiden test fifty and continuing his good work with the ball. His international revival has been one of the feel-good stories of the summer.

 

[straw man]

Highlight of the runout: https://streamable.com/yn9tm

I also enjoyed Watling's non ideal take and then desperate lunge for the stumps, with De Bruyn nearly the length of the pitch away .

 

[_Ed_]

Very questionable musical choices today, btw. I was particularly mystified by the live recording of Live earlier on.

 

[straw man]

All the focus of the DRS-fail ire has been Williamson, however he's not standing in the best position to judge and is heavily reliant on Watling, who seems to be giving the wrong advice time and time again. Sounds like neither Henry nor Wagner were particularly excited for those reviews.

Bound to rue this some time in the next 62 overs.
