This is pretty good recovery all things said. Obviously you hope not to lose 5 wickets in 10 overs but it does happen.

Latham has been masterful. Not such a great final over though.

don’t know 16 runs off the last over is ok

Aged like milk! 16 off the over

I will take credit for the last 3 balls.

I know it's not top tier opposition (not that you'd know that from the start of our innings) but that's a great century from Latham.

I think we still need to bowl well to defend this but Latham has given our bowlers enough runs to have a fair chance.

[Donsteppa]

Tom Latham and the Ten Passengers Show.

[Donsteppa]

Tickner might be fast, but he's all over the place.

[Donsteppa]

Heh, better start to his second spell, a half-tracker gets hit down deep square leg's throat.

[Donsteppa]

Sodhi has been turning it square, that's an overdue/well deserved wicket.

[Donsteppa]

Tickner would have had a second wicket if Bracewell didn't catch like me on the boundary...

M. Bracewell makes up for the batting by turning a massive offbreak through the gate. 😊

Looking home and hosed thank fuck.

Losing to these chumps would be unbearable

[Donsteppa]

That’s a massive relief after 32/5 😊

[Bovidae]

I am contemplating going on Monday but there is no guarantee that Taylor will score runs.

[No Quarter]

Latham doing what he does best, fucking dominating the minnows

Thank fuck he did the rest of the batters couldn’t

[MN5]

Some BCs looked decidedly second tier

Which they are

Michael Bracewell is a very handy batsmen, hope he fires in the 3rd one... was impressed with his bowling in the 2nd ODI, he gives the ball a really good rip for an off spinner.

Happy to be proven wrong but that record of his indicates he’d be not much more than a place filler at international level. I’d like to think we have more potentially dominant players than him floating round the traps.

He batted really well for Wgtn this year, so deserves a crack... he also gets really turn off the pitch, probably more turn than any other off spinner we have.
