Black Caps vs Pakistan Series

[Gunner]

Munro drops a tough one handed diving catch. Would have been a beauty if it stuck.

[Crazy Horse]

@gunner I reckon it would have been a routine two handed catch.

[Gunner]

Fucker Fakhar looking to play some shots, gets a couple of boundaries of Southee’s over. Not bad bowling, he’s just decided he’s going to have a go.

[Gunner]

@crazy-horse yea looks like he miss judged it after seeing it on the replays. Bugger!

[Gunner]

3 loose overs in a row from Boult, Fergusson and CDG go for 31 and release the pressure valve.

69/2 from 15

[Gunner]

Santner should not be bowling fucking wides, that’s 3 now.
Yep he’s attacking the legs of the batsmen but still, at 85 odd clicks there is no excuse.

Need a wicket here, these two seem to be doing as they please!

[Gunner]

The tactic pays off as Fakhar comes down the wicket and plays all around one that moves sharply off the pitch and takes out leg stump.

Timely wicket that one!

97/3

[Chris B.]

Santner's got a carrom ball!!!

[JK]

OUCH!!

Wasnt wearing a helmet or even a cap!

[MN5]

Kano bowling better than our specialist spinner.

Piss off Santner, your services are no longer required.

[Donsteppa]

@MN5 A bit harsh to drop for 1 -29 off 8 overs

Tongue firmly in cheek. Santner isn't too bad for a BC spinner.

[Mokey]

Ack, dropped by Taylor. Ferguson is bowling well at the death here. Am loving the fact he's regularly dropping it in over 145kms too.

[Cyclops]

Awful end to the innings takes it from a good bowling performance to an average one. 62 from the last five overs.

[Cyclops]

Good innings from Hafeez and Sarfaraz though, can't take too much away from them as I don't think our bowling was awful, just got punished when we made mistakes.

[Chris B.]

Based on several of their guys doing pretty well on this surface, I'd say it's a belter - especially facing the seamers.

I reckon PK probably 30 short of par.

Anyone who hasn't seen the ball Santner got Fakhar with should keep an eye out for it.

Nowhere near as spectacular as Warne to Gatting, but it's a similar theory. A spinner beating a batsman all ends up with a beautifully executed ball that the batsman didn't know he could bowl.

That's a new variation that's going to help keep batsman honest against him!

[No Quarter]

Munro superb once again.

[KiwiMurph]

@no-quarter and gone.

[Paekakboyz]

@chris-b if he can get that ball working well he'll be in the money. Epic delivery.

Fuck, guppy just holed out

Done his job though, he was always going try and keep hitting.

Guptill... that was stupid. Just needed to build a partnership with Kane.
