Black Caps vs Pakistan Series

I suspect it's been mentioned previously but the Pakis do seem to have a disproportionately high number of left arm seamers over the years.

All the way back as far as I can remember to Safraz Nawaz and Azeem Hafeez (or Hafeez Ahmoff as Billy Birmingham dubbed him).

Took a wee diversion to Statsguru.

A list of all ODI left arm pace bowlers shows:

• Pakiatan 20 of 102 total pace bowlers (19.6%)
• World 123 of 1204 total (10.2%)

So basically double.

[No Quarter]

That was an awesome innings from Munro. Got the run rate going against a decent attack, which takes pressure off Guppy and Kane.

Hows the deck?

What sort of score are the comms predicting?

Very early days, but just looking at he scoreboard alone so far, I'd guess 320 might be on?

Current WASP at 321 - refer link

So how does it work with the bails off for run outs and bowled? Is any contact enough or is it up to the umpire to make a call?

[booboo]

@cyclops beat me to it. Was wondering the same thing.

[ShadowTrooper]

Nice shots from Guppy

[No Quarter]

Guppy and Kane reaping the benefits of Munro's innings. 149/1 after 26 with these two now finding their timing.

[ShadowTrooper]

Shitter. Out on 48.

[No Quarter]

That's an incredibly soft dismissal. Gah.

[ShadowTrooper]

Yep this Pakistan side will sort out the wheat from the chaff, soft dismissal Latham.

And again.
I’m not sold on Nicholls yet, time to impress me fulla!!!

[Gunner]

Need to go at 8’s from here to get to 320.
I think we need all of that.

If Kane bats late into this innings we’ll get there.

Right now we should be aiming for 350.

There seems to be no interest in going for a score like that as of yet...

Time to put the hammer down surely?

[Siam]

Watching Kane at his efficient best makes me even more incredulous that resting him for home games is the best thing for NZ cricket this summer.

He is a joy to watch at his job

[Siam]

@shadowtrooper yeah, proper international standard bowlers. Fielding looks committed too

[ShadowTrooper]

De Grandhomme back for the next ODI surely?

Yup, both players need to start hitting now, need 330+

Shoulder charge to the head, minimum yellow card

Reckless but not intentional, yellow should suffice.
