Black Caps vs Netherlands

[Donsteppa]

Watched the Black Cap innings from the top of the bank. Much more fun than the New Years Test

We were briefly worried that Latham was going to pinch all the available runs when he picked out that hard run two early, but eventually singles and blocking prevailed.

@donsteppa wish I was out of isolation and able to join in!!

31/4

[Crazy Horse]

31/4. Did Fozzie give the pre match talk?

Gary Stead has the ultimate cruisey job these days. Paid to travel around and watch cricket, and every second game the team he’s in charge of doesn’t even bother to front…

[Yeahtheboys]

32/5

[MN5]

Holy shit, someone is stuck right in the Dutch oven right now.

[Bovidae]

Is the ball doing a bit? It's not that humid.

[Donsteppa]

Some of these fringe "it's great to see them getting a call up" players are only serving to remind us of why they haven't been selected until now...

Now CdG tries being a twat too but the catch goes down.

Just woeful shot selection from a haplessly inconsistent top order.

And he's presided over the worst Blackcaps season performance since 2012, 0-4 to India, loss to Bangladesh where team looked woefully prepared & tactically inept, the capitulation against South Africa (and only winning 1st test because SA players had been sitting in MIQ unable to train).

Just got home, what a shocker !

[Donsteppa]

CdG reverted to park cricketer stereotype with that innings.

[Crucial]

van Beek doing no harm to his aspirations to play for NZ.

[MN5]

Thank god all rounder Doug Bracewell is there to steady the ship

[Chris B.]

Bloody hell!!!

We don't even have a Timmy cameo to rely on!

[Chris]

Great recovery from Latham and Bracewell.

[Chris]

Great 100 by Latham he may have saved NZs arse.
