New Zealand v West Indies
-
Gotta love being able to stream live sports anywhere now. I was watching this from hospital in the delivery unit waiting for baby boy #3 to come. The midwife was a cricket nut so no shady looks from her either. The little guy waited till after 6pm which allowed me to catch most of the days play.
Well we are slapping them again but we didn't bat particularly well. Not sure how many times Nicholls ended up being dropped but it got beyond a joke in the end. Basically the difference between the teams is we actually took our regulation catches which shouldn't be the case at this level.
Jamieson is some player though. Has all the attributes both mentally and physically to become a world class bowling all rounder. So excited to see how he develops.
Agree with enforcing the follow on. This pitch won't break up so batting last shouldn't be a factor. Just put them in again and keep the foot on the throat.

@No-Quarter massive congrats old mate
Timmy with a Michelle. Every time there’s talk of writing him off he proves the doubters wrong.
This might even bring @Baron-Silas-Greenback out of exile to gloat.
But seriously, when was the last time Boult AND Wagner went wicketless in an innings ?

Surprised that Wagner and Boult have been given the ball this morning. Would have thought Southee and Jamieson earner the right to have frost crack at finishing off the tail.
Wags just got the one over so Southee could swap ends.
Southee cleans up the last 2 wickets quickly this morning and it’s the first time 2 NZ bowlers have got 5 fors in the same innings.

That is very cool, easily our best ever new ball pairing.

100%.....our 3rd and 4th seamers make it the closest we’ve ever had to a mid 80s style West Indies attack as well. As if to prove a point Boult has made sure he gets the first two wickets to get himself on the board too !

Chase got caught on his crease and Kyle’s swing does the rest. Two goose eggs for Chase.

Windies best bat out there now with Blackwood and Campbell.

Nice jinx.
Five down now still needing 195 for NZ to bat again

Francis Payne also tweeted this is the first time Boult has not picked up a first innings wicket in a test.

On the slide. Clearly. Had a good career but obviously coming to an end.
Do we need 4 quicks, or should we make do with 3 and pick another batsman? Doug Bracewell's name has been mentioned on the Fern as a possible replacement.

Despite not scoring a ton or even 50 at test level he’s an all rounder. I’m sure a huge score is just round the corner. See ya Trent.

The other name that has been bandied about on the Fern is Jessie Ryder.
Perhaps Ryder as the batting allrounder is the way to go to replace Boult.
