Black Caps vs Bangles
-
Some meaty blows from Boult to get us up to 244/9 with one over left. Broom on strike.
-
251 from the 50, Boult run out off the last ball. Broom 109*, next top score Ronchi on 35 so he really carried us there.
We are about 20 runs below par but if we bowl well there is more than enough movement around to defend that.
-
The bloody wind has got up which will negate some of the swing, doesn't look like Boult is getting much in the first over.
-
Southee is a bloody mixed bag - width, leg side, short, just all over the place.

@Donsteppa but didn't you know that fast bowlers (145kph+) induce premature ejaculation from NZ cricket selectors. It must go in their eyes, because they seem to miss the fact that they often go for 8 runs an over.

OK someone's got to say it and pretty quickly.
We have absolutely no chance of winning this game. Bangles at a canter
They might have to up it to a gallop
-
Fantastic work @dogmeat I took a break to play in the yard with the boy at 2 down, came back to 8 down. Good times.
-
All out for 184. Another comfortable win. I don't know why the comms are always so hell bent on insisting the pitch is always great for batting - this one was by no means unplayable but it was holding up and providing a fair but of sideways movement, and the scores of each team indicate that.
Broom MOTM by miles. Very mature innings given he was losing partners on a regular basis.

It's Bangladesh
They've beaten us in 7 consecutive ODIs in Bangladesh. So I'm pretty happy we are still at least putting them away in our own back yard - they are a fairly handy ODI outfit.

Yeah. I was reminded of Sir Alex Ferguson's 'it's Spurs' quip. Probably what the aussies say about us
