*Official* South Africa in New Zealand 2022

[thierry henry]

Yeah we can’t win a series against South Africa. The power of AJ McLean and Nick Carter compels them

 

[cnerd123]

He was actually dropped early on.

I must have missed it lol. Was it the chance that went past Erwee at point? Where he looked all confused after, as tho he didn't see the ball?

Game losing day this.

And with it, serious questions to be asked of the backroom staff when we've got players in their primes regressing.

Anyway Blundell needs a score here imo because I really don't trust his keeping, so he kinda always needs runs.

 

[straw man]

wtaf

 

[StephenZA]

I love to watch an on song Rabada...

 

[Flem274*]

Questionable batting on a road today.

 

[Skyliner]

Embarrassing stuff from Blundell. SMH.

lol cop that

 

[nzfan]

Oh boy... I was hoping they bowl short or short of good length to Blundell and they bowled consistently full. The ball nipped for sure but looks a bad leave.

This is a strange batting effort, barring Young no one's nicked off.

 

[straw man]

For some reason just feel like we're not in this match - or maybe it's just me and the distractions of the world right now.

Nah I was right the first time - four of the softest dismissals you're likely to see.

(I'm not counting Young as it's more of a technical flaw for him and just shows he's not an opener)

 

[NZTailender]

We're never beating SA in a series are we

Also Lathams ****ed me fantasy team

Wagner century when

 

[morgieb]

Talk about a curse.

 

[Nintendo]

Colin at 7 with nz 94/5 really doesn't inspire confidence.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Might be CDG's last test, so needs a big one. I'd rather have Phillips or Ravindra, but see how he goes. Tail really needs to stand up. Will be interesting to see if Southee is still ahead of Wagner and Henry.

 

[Meridio]

We've just looked off the pace this whole test. Dropped catches, soft dismissals. Still a long way to go and we can recover (honestly looks pretty flat out there) but we're in a real hole here.

 

[Frost]

Tbh two unlucky wickets. I love nz supporters all doom and gloom after a not so great day still well in the game thanks to saf scoring so slowly

 

[Flem274*]

These two should counter attack I reckon. Neither are good blockers, and if they must block I'd rather it be next innings.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Need to somehow get to at least 260. Can't be more than 100 behind

 

[nzfan]

Mulder is on a song, he's quite good. Nips it both ways.

 

[nzfan]

Way too many runs behind and will take a special knock from CDG and Mitchell. Both are capable but Mulder and Rabada shouldn't be bowling lots to them if they have to kick on here.

CDG looking quite organized today. He's got nothing to lose
