This is the very best of Neesham today, he often seems to play his best cricket when the responsibility is squarely on his shoulders.
One of the best I’ve seen from CdG, because he had to adjust his natural game and then build an innings.
I thought if we get 220 that would be enough on this wicket.

Arrgghhhhhh

Perfect time to send out Southee for a late flurry. Oh wait.....

What a shame, he was going for 6 on that 2nd last ball with 11 to go for his ton. Hits the final one clear over the fence.
Neesh 97* take a bow.

Pakistan have some natural hitters as well so they will have seen how Neesh and CdG played the wicket.
I’m a little worried we don’t have enough bowlers that can retain

The Pakistanis did well with a number of yorkers and slower balls in the last few overs. Southee could have replicated that, not sure if Henry can.
I actually like this set up for Henry. I've been critical of him so far this tournament but if Pakistan do come out looking to play the long game (similar to Amla & co) I do like his chances of frustrating or forcing a wicket.
If he goes at 8s here they can drop him at the airport on the way to Lords'.
