***Official**** Sri Lanka in New Zealand 2014/2015

[Jono]

Triple ton then duck on this ground. That's cricket lol.

 

[NZTailender]

Pure stupidity by the crowd there. Expect better from the Basin.

Terrible clapping form

 

[Zinzan]

Yeah I don't wtf that clapping was about....he was on 0 off 1 ball.

 

[BeeGee]

Okay, that's too much luck for them now.

It's not luck. It was a **** shot to a good ball.

SL well on top now.

 

[NZTailender]

Okay, that's too much luck for them now.

Also saw Kane do a bit of a chop on. Legit tactic now.

 

[Maximas]

SL well on top now.

Settle down, we still have to bat on this

against Southee and Boult

 

[Zinzan]

SL well on top now.

Poor shots or not, 2 chop-on dismissals on the oppositions top 2 (or 3) batsmen in the space of 5 minutes needs some luck. How many inside edges hit the pad or miss the stumps.

 

[morgieb]

Sri Lanka have been very lucky with tosses this series.

 

[Jono]

Baz needed me to fly to Wellington and then he'd triple ton up.

 

[NZTailender]

Excuse me while I jinx but another Wellington match saving triple tonne in the works here

 

[Zinzan]

SL well on top now.

I'm not convinced having NZ 140/4 after winning the toss on a green wicket ( that seems to be quickening up) puts SL that far on top at all. I'd say it's actually fairly evenly balanced now. Possibly slight edge to SL.

 

[Dan]

So here's a great chance to see if Jimmy Neesham can grit/be mature.

Yep, definitely an important innings for him here.

Baz needed me to fly to Wellington and then he'd triple ton up.

Hmmm... maybe this proves that the first innings collapse and Ishant 6-fer last year wasn't my fault after all.

 

[Jono]

You were there for a Dhawan 98 though

 

[Zinzan]

Jimmy has a chance of completely shutting Anderson out of that no. 6 spot for the English tour if he come up trumps again today.

 

[BeeGee]

It was all Jono's fault.

 

[Jono]

Ian Smith cracking it at the rules of cricket.

 

[NZTailender]

fmd he had no idea where that was going

 

[Jono]

It was all Jono's fault.

You can't blame me for Ishant 6-fer and then not credit me for Baz triple

 

[NZTailender]

fmd he had no idea where that was going

Did that time though. Good comeback.
