CWC Game #9 Black Caps v England

[reprobate]

fucken really?

[No Quarter]

Nearly got him first ball!

Shit keeping.

[Donsteppa]

Latham not seeing it with the bat or with the gloves...

[reprobate]

that's more chris harris than dipak, almost looks like he's throwing down slow-motion inswingers

[No Quarter]

I don't mind the tactic. These two like the pace so taking that away could frustrate them...

....provided Santner doesn't dish up wide full tosses....

[reprobate]

i reckon it's a horrible tactic. we've got boult. we've got southee who is a swing-only bowler, and henry who is a new ball only bowler. those blokes at least should have had a couple before this.

[No Quarter]

@reprobate OK yeah it's swinging so let's ditch the Santner experiment immediately.

I agree, waste of an over. We need to swing it and take wickets. It won't swing as much later.

England on track for a score of close to 400 ffs.

Does that ginger gay bashing mercenary have a Maori sleeve tattoo? What a fucking flog

[No Quarter]

Fark this is a bad start. 150 run loss looking like a conservative estimate.

[MN5]

I'm glad Southee is back. Terrific first over.

The way the first few overs are going, they'll probably save all Henry's overs for the death too...

Always nice to give the Poms a fighting chance in their own tournament.

[Squirrel]

Well Roy and Bairstow are in a mood

[Cyclops]

Seriously? On another day that first ball cleans up Roy and we get a perfect start. Santner bowling the first was a great call.

Boult and Southee now need to make the most of the movement. A bit too soon for all the defeatist '400 plus' moans.

[No Quarter]

Southee bowling pie after pie after pie...

[westcoastie]

just saw a Pakistani comment on every four killing their changes of qualifying, I'd say its doing NZ in.

[NTA]

This Southee bloke looks like shit

[MN5]

It's ok Southee, I'm sure you'll do heaps better at the "death". Chin up son.
