Two of the most miligned NZ cricketers needing to manage the rebuild. I've slapped a cheeky $50 on Braces to top score.
Even maligned cricketers can turn things around…..
See Santner, Mitchell

There we go. Poor spelling from me.

Indeed. That's punting though. Stoked to see Chapman look so good.

Chapman almost always looks amazing when he's in and playing classical shots. He's a very gifted cricketer.
If he gets us out of this I won't ever doubt him again.

I remember him at the 2010 U19 CWV at Lincoln. He was playing for Hong Kong as a 16 year-old I think. Looked up to it then too.

Chapman and extras saving us from being bowled out for 26!
Young, Ravindra, Mitchell, Latham, Phillips and Santner collectively contributing 5 runs off the bat.
We could have picked 6 random ferners and not done much worse! Anyone specialise on the nick for 4?!!

I was always good at a left handed cross bat slog with non existent foot movement. It got me many a six ( against shit bowling ideally )

Ravindra and Phillips get a pass because those were two incredible deliveries that are wickets 99 times our of 100, although I don't remember the last time Phillips looked like he was in any kind of form. The time off between now and the Pakistan tour might be good for him if he can hold his spot.
Mitchell played a lazy shot but also undone slightly by the movement. Latham extremely disappointed and his place in the squad in danger I think.
I've always thought Santner is overrated as a batter. Slightly unusually, I think he's a better bat in tests than in short ball stuff. He's well organised and fair sound defensively so is a tough wicket, but in short form he just really struggles to generate any kind of strike rate.

Big win.
