Chris Martin is a joke.

Knock knock
Who's there?
Chris Martin!

Chris Martin is a joke.

Seriously, why isn't Vettori bowling?

 

[Blaze]

We are going to get killed in South Africa if Martin and Franklin bowl in tandem.

Wouldnt be suprised if they are both dropped for that.. mills and mason will be in

Was Sarwan's hook his typical idiotic shot based on the fact that he was crucial in the WI fight back? It sounded that way.

Yes it was, the WIndies commentator wasn't best pleased.

Looks like this Test is going to go down to wire.

Smith just out - West Indies 241/7 (65.1 ov)

 

[sirjeremy11]

At the moment this is one of the more interesting tests for NZ in recent times. Hope we don't have our becoming traditional second innings collapse...

I REALLY wish I was watching this match. Foxtel should look at getting a 24 hour cricket channel cranking.

 

[sirjeremy11]

Just getting closer! Martin gets Bravo. His third wicket. Why can't he stop bowling rubbish amongst the good balls?!!!

 

[James]

Keep Vettori on and bring back Bond now, any runs gained through a first innings lead will be critical.

 

[James]

YESSSSSSSSSSS!

69.4 Vettori to Ramdin, OUT: Nine down! flighted delivery on the leg
stump, Ramdin tries to flick it away through onside, ball takes
the leading edge straight back to Vettori

So true! Sounds like a terrific match.

Ramdin gone now, Vettori gets him. Crucial wicket.

Can say that again! He really could of done some damage after watching him in the last ODI.

 

[sirjeremy11]

All over. WI make 257. Why didn't Vettori bowl more - got 2-7 from 7 and a bit overs! Interestingly poised... Let's see if Marshall can make us all shut our mouths!

 

[Blaze]

Great fightback. Have to say the Windies blew it, Sarwan and Bravo were looking comfortable until Sarwan holed out.

Martin's figures flatter his bowling.

I think Martin's figures are typical of his bowling. He bowls enough bad balls to go for 4.71 an over in a test match, but still manages to bowl enough good ones to get 3 wickets. Weird.

 

[sirjeremy11]

Do you think Marshall has done more than expected of him in this game?

 

[James]

1.3 Bradshaw to Marshall, OUT: full length delivery on the off stump,
Marshall drives on the front-foot and gets the outside edge and a
good low catch taken by Ganga at gully

Oh dear, now what's going to happen for the second test....

I think they will keep him and say "Well, there is just no one else to pick", thereby insulting Papps, Sinclair, Vincent, Taylor etc
