Ball 1 goes for 6
Off on another tangent.
Why did we need to wait to check if the ball went for 6?
It was over the boundary so it was either 4 or 6.
Play could have continued as there was no need to change anything, just let the Third Umpire alert the scorers when they've checked and confirmed it.

Jamieson is awesome. Bowling average of less than 16 and batting average of 50 odd (quick calculations based on todays results).
For clarity, the above post was after the first wicket.
Now the post goes doubly so.

I know the BCs are excellent at home but bloody hell....
We have decades of "conditioning" and "expectation management".
This is better than the opposite (which is happening with the ABs).
It is hard to adjust.

Veteran batsman Ross Taylor’s Twenty20 international cricket career is in limbo after he was dropped from the Black Caps squad to face Pakistan. Taylor’s absence was a major talking point of the 18-man squad named for three matches starting next Friday in Auckland, along with star fast bowler Lockie Ferguson who is awaiting further medical advice after suffering a bone stress injury in his back in a potential major blow for the side. Fellow pace bowler Hamish Bennett was also ruled out of the series after suffering an abdominal muscle tear.Good news about the omission of Bennett but is this the end of Taylor's T20 career?
Black Caps Twenty20 squad to face Pakistan:
Game one: Mitchell Santner (captain), Martin Guptill, Tim Seifert, Devon Conway, Glenn Phillips, Mark Chapman, Jimmy Neesham, Doug Bracewell, Todd Astle, Ish Sodhi, Scott Kuggeleijn, Jacob Duffy, Blair Tickner.
Games two and three: Kane Williamson (captain), Guptill, Seifert, Conway, Phillips, Neesham, Daryl Mitchell, Kyle Jamieson, Astle, Sodhi, Kuggeleijn, Tim Southee, Trent Boult.
Schedule:
Friday: 1st T20 at Eden Park, Auckland, 7pm
