Black Caps v Pakistan

Hardly any variation. Southee aside, very few slow balls have been bowled.

Yea which is bloody strange.

Phillips pointed it out in his post innings interview that their tactic would be to bowl a lot of slower balls.

It was obvious to every man and his blind dog but they just haven’t done it.

That's a weird delivery from Neesham with that field.

[Damo]

Neesham into the attack. Uh oh.

[voodoo]

We got this

Apparently "its a crucial time".

Wild.

[ACT Crusader]

Mitchell even taking catches off throws from the crowd.

[Gunner]

How strange to see another ball sailing over the square leg boundary.

Aside from Southee the bowling has been so far below par tonight it’s not funny.

[KiwiMurph]

@Gunner You also have to credit the hitting.

Rizwan on for the ton [jinx alert]

So sloppy. The overthrow, the wide. Amateur hour

[KiwiMurph]

@voodoo game is over by now anyway

Yeah. To your point on hitting, that was a great shot off a not-too-bad delivery

[Donsteppa]

Boult has dished up some pies tonight.

The margin of error at McLean Park is so small given the short boundary. Pressure on the bowlers to get it right or it usually goes the distance.

You’ve gotta love a batter that goes for a golden, as he’s walking off gives advice to the new batsman 😎

"Get the other guy on strike"?

[KiwiMurph]

This is like a reversal of the last game where the chasing team stumbles a little at the end but does it easy really.
