Yep. Anderson with a runout - and we are going well. I still fear this bowling lineup, but we should have enough hitters to get to 130/140 reasonably comfortably

[Kruse]

Wait... what? When was this game scheduled - yesterday?
The only reason I knew it was happening - it finally appeared in my android notifications - 5 minutes ago.
I could have been watching cricket for the last 90 minutes? FFS.

shoulda got on the Fern earlier!

[nzzp]

Wheels really falling off NZ now. 89/4 needing another 60 or so at 9.5/over

I shouldn't have. Since I started watching we have lost little Kane and just had DGH run out.

THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT.

2.5 hours into the season, and I'm already lashing out a fans Love being a Craps supporter.

needs something special to get home from here

[Snowy]

Yep, my fault.

We have won 2 rugby world cups since I stopped going to them after the Wayne Barnes debacle (refused to fork out my money for corrupt / incompetent refereeing).

Craps are going to have to have a slash at it a bit now - too slow.

[dogmeat]

We did better than I expected but ended up withy the predictable result. Still cricket is back

[Virgil]

Black Caps blowing a winning chance to win a game?
Must be the start of Summer.

[No Quarter]

Meant to get up for this but was out late drinking at a Halloween party.

Good to see Munro and Taylor score some runs, and a decent bowling and fielding effort. We really miss Guppy in the shorter forms.

And GREAT that cricket is finally back! I am close to rugby'd out now - bring on summer!

[Bovidae]

I watched the last 3 overs live. Pakistan bowled well but we struggled to find the boundary rope when needed. None of the big hitters in the middle order did much damage.

More competitive than Aussie though.

[nzzp]

So, T20 2 is on. And we're not dominating. Pakistan bowling attack very very good.

131/5 with 10 balls left. So actually not too bad ... last over went for 1 run and a wicket,a fter Corey Anderson played 644. On this pitch, 140 is a solid score

[nzzp]

We finish at Edit:153. Good score here. Munro and Anderson both got 44, to make this competitive. Great to see Anderson back in international cricket after what seems like forever injured!

[No Quarter]

Munro, Kane and Corey score all of the runs. Munro is some T20 player.

Probably a par score, will need to bowl and field well.

Here probably slightly above par I'd say. That said, Pakistan were making it look easy, going at 11/over for three overs! Southee, Milne and Patel getting stick.

Great catch from Williamson, shine off th ball and it's all a bit harder now.57/1 after 7

[ACT Crusader]

Argh, was a good over so far and then Sodhi gives a half volley.

deG poor with the bat and drops a catch

[nzzp]

Pakistan now need 10s for 5 overs. Goign to be a tight finish, well done NZ to get themselves in this position

[No Quarter]

Damn, another 6 after the Munro wicket. A 6 every now and then is relieving the pressure.

[No Quarter]

We just didn't get enough wickets early on. If you have batsmen at the crease with this equation you should get home nearly every time.
