I'm calling that it will be all done. the Metservice forecast is from 4am -- I prefer the MetVuw that shows little to no rain in the evening.

Optimism aboundsedit: I mean that there will be play, possibly a reduced match, but still play

@JK said in Black Caps v South Africa:
How many overs can T20 get reduced to? Hopefully not just a super over....
5 each way
I do love a good 5 each way

These guys are smashing us to all corners.
Gonna be a hiiiigh scoring gameHope so - certainly looking like it from the SA side anyway.
Right now we're going to be chasing 200 if we don't pick up a bunch of wickets.

The Trent Boult and Assorted Muppets Show so far.
Let's hope Ronchi bats a damn sight better than his keeping tonight.
Yeah - I mean, seriously - how can you have a squad of international bowlers...tasked with bowling four overs each...and most of them can't avoid spraying it down leg side...repeatedly?
It's a good thing Sir Paddles and Chats are still alive - otherwise they'd be spinning in their graves.
That's just fucking hopeless!!!!

Yeah - we've got some batting power, so if the deck is true we should be able to go close - or completely self-destruct...though that's part of the game.
I don't really understand our bowling plan at all. Surely the last thing you want to bowl is a ball short of the length on off stump e.g. the first ball of Southee's final over. I think I'd rather see a half volley.
If you can't bowl a yorker, do you really have much business bowling in T20?
Yorker...a foot outside off stump...not many places you can hit it. Yorker on the stumps as another variation. Gives the batsman much more to think about.
