Kyle Jamieson wicket first ball, swung a lon gway

Hes such a boss 🤗

138km/h loosener swinging like that. Sign him up for the Test series

He was great in the tests last year. Handy with the bat and great temperament too

[Stag]

Even with all of his experience Southee still just keeps under performing time after time. When will enough be enough?

[ARHS]

He tries to encourage shots at the swinging ball when he opens in powerplays. Odi and t20. Then bowls tighter line second spell. Has his off days but I think he performs well mostly.

[nzzp]

holy crap, Glenn Phillips just pulled in a screamer in the outfield.

T20 ton, runout, catch - thanks fella

Edit: and did it with a dodgy kneecap too...

[Damo]

Neesham into the attack. Was about to say the target doesn't look so imposing any more. However Phillips pulls in a screamer from a rank half tracker.

[ARHS]

I think the term kneecapping just took on a new meaning. I. E. Inspiring utter sporting brilliance. What an amazing catch by Phillips

[canefan]

Can someone please tell Ian Bishop that Eden Gardens is in India, Eden Park is in NZ....

Santner getting some tap

[ARHS]

Black Caps clearly inspired by their return to the home of NZ cricket 😉

Interesting that NZ had the 2nd, third & forth worst bowlers in the match, the other 3 NZ bowlers being outstanding covered for them

But the Windies worst bowler was so far ahead of the pack that his performances in both games 1 and 2 have been something to behold!

I’ll be pleasantly surprised if there are 40 overs tonight

[Bovidae]

Mentioned on TV3 that Ross Dykes passed away today. Black armbands to be worn.

@Bovidae 2020 can't end soon enough.

[mikey07]

Does anyone find it ironic that the two t20s were played at the Mt for what I believe is the generally better weather yet it rains both days

[Bovidae]

There aren't many places it isn't raining today.

[mikey07]

@Bovidae true but I’d imagine they were thinking it wouldn’t of this time of year

[ARHS]

Pity they did not start earlier. It started raining at 7.05....

They probably thought it was one of their better chances of good weather, but February is about the only month I'd assume it wouldn't rain in NZ, even here

(though scheduling a cricket match always tempts rain, even in a drought...)
