Santner has scored 2 runs and taken no wickets for 92 runs.
Heās certainly biding his time to make an impact on this match
Keeping the powder dry
Jeepers. Shithouse Rugby vernacular has made its way into a cricket thread !

@MN5 Ravindra looked as threatening. Bracewell for Santner, Henry for Southee
The former is basically like for like and wonāt make a shred of difference.
The latter isnāt happening cos heās captain even though it should
Henry should be there somewhere though, fuck having loads of spinners when theyāre all shit. OāRourke has been the pick of the bowlers by such a ridiculous margin itās not even funny and heās a pacer
Seeing as my positive approach didnāt work maybe itās time to be more real.
VERY hard to see an early breakthrough and this niggly partnership will matter quite a bit in the final wash up. Lots of pressure on OāRourke for a couple of early ones, if that doesnāt happen weāre fucked given the lack of collective effort by the rest of the bowlers.
We still have a very capable top order on paper but again, very reliant on one guy in particular ( with an honourable mention to Johns son )
Still game on, Iām being as positive as I can be.

He is a more entertaining batsman, even if not actually better.
New ball on Sunday...(about as positive as I can get).
Splitting hairs.

Wow a rest day, very old school! The Sri Lankan players are apparently going back to their homes to vote, which must be a weird experience, and maybe an opportunity for a momentum swing? Although they're well on top now so might not be enough, and as full-time pros they should be able to handle switching off and on.
