Not gonna lie, I'm switching this on just to watch Herath bat.

 

[Howe_zat]

this is weird.

also, boo.

there's a picture of him and ryder next to "cbf" in the dictionary

edit: well I posted that before seeing that he was 5 off 41

 

[Neil Pickup]

This Siriwardana lad looks quite handy. Fairly compact, watches the ball well, plays the ball pretty late.

Watch as he now chases one before slicing it to backward point...

 

[Neil Pickup]

this is weird.

also, boo.

He's rising to the responsibility of batting #8

Arnold has an ability to say a simple and correct point but sound like a smartarse douche when saying it. Always talks like a know-it-all. Its something about how he speaks, can't pinpoint why. Maybe the pauses.

 

[Pratters]

Re Arnold: In the beginning it looks nice but it gets pretty annoying with time. He is in this mode all the time.

I think it's because he's smiling when he talks, genuinely think he loves his job. Love the bloke.

Ugh, can we just bin uni oval as a venue already? Always produces garbage cricket like this.

Pakistan vs. NZ in 09 was pretty green wasn't it?

 

[Neil Pickup]

This length is going to lead to Herath backing away / having a slash / compulsive hook before too long

 

[Bahnz]

Yeah, the one occasion they managed to produce a pitch with a bit in it. But 1 out of 6 isn't the best strike rate.

Yeah, enjoying it.

No way.

We need pitches like this so we can work on our weakest suit.

Complete bowling attacks should be able to knock over SL's tail no matter how flat the conditions.

tail bowling comes third after two openers and spin bowling imo

 

[Bahnz]

Really solid effort from Wagner to get it up into the mid 130's running into this wind. An asset in conditions like this.

 

[Jono]

**** this is brutal bowling. that one would hurt

 

[Cabinet96]

Urgh. Can someone give him a lid with the neck protection please?

 

[Neil Pickup]

Yeah, enjoying it.

Wearing it was the fourth option. Not a length that he looks comfortable facing when trying to prevent himself from going after it, and NZ have hit it consistently.

 

[Athlai]

Ooof. Unpleasant to see
