wow, Southee obviously wants a bowl
three consecutive catch attempts (one taken)
Im still hoping for 400 (dont think it happens now)
Are you implying that Southee is batting irresponsibly? I can’t believe no one has mentioned it before
He is always agressive, however it did look like he left some food in the fridge that he was in hurry to get back to before CDG stole it
doesnt matter anyway...400 up

That over faced by Southee reminded me of these tweets yesterday from from Francis Payne:

Henry can hold a bat as well. We don't have any real bunnies in our lineup.
SA's fielding is below club level though, they only have themselves to blame for this huge lead we've built up.
Henry looking really good too.
Below club level you say? To be fair on South Africa, I once dropped a sitter like that first attempt off Southee. I had been drinking all day, was in barefeet and had to avoid a hedgehog in the backyard during the attempt, but did recover to take it one hand one bounce..
so youre right..some of those attempts were awful even at backyard level

We haven’t since Chris Martin.
Will Somerville impressed me with his batting in India, it’s just a real shame he’s a spin bowler.

This is a really heartwarming score on so many levels.
This SA team seems pretty shite though.
How long do you think they'll continue the bat? I'm pretty shit at strategy of test cricket!
Both these two are close to milestones, I’d say til they get out.

Henry's first milestone will be to pass Wags's score I bet ha ha

Continuing the theme of players who are berated on TSF promptly start performing - Blundell has started to turn his form around with the bat too.
We are further evolving into a giant reverse jinx.
I don’t know why people go on about Kane Williamson and say he’s so great.
Definitely THE most overrated player I’ve ever seen in all my years of watching cricket.

Matt Henry having himself quite the couple of days

@donsteppa said in Black Caps vs Proteas 2022:
Not just content with taking 7 wickets, Henry was determined to knock off the 23 runs he conceded too...
Now pushing for allrounder status cheeky bugger
-
@donsteppa said in Black Caps vs Proteas 2022:
Matt Henry, all-rounder.
Given how loosely the selectors throw that label around he most definitely is.

Was hoping for a lead of 300 early, but as the bowling has tired, fielding getting well below par and some inspired batting efforts, I didnt think we would be looking at at 400 run lead, but here we are lol

There’s a question I want to ask, without asking it and putting the curse of the fern on these two.
I have a feeling the answer is about 110…?
Anyone a mind reader and know what I’m getting at, and what the answer is?
Edit;
Stand down, I looked it up, and the answer is 151.
Still a long way off.
