These two have taken the time to get their eye in and get a good read of the pitch. Hard to fault that, they're by far our best players and have taken full responsibility for the innings.
No doubt both players have the ability to put the hammer down. Just have to hope they come off.
Yeah that get their eye in, has led to two miss hits this over....

#PaddingtheirstatsMaybe this pitch is not good to bat on. At the start of the game we assumed this was a 300-350 pitch. I think the pitch looks a bit slow and a bit tricky to bat on, particularly against the slow bowlers. Maybe it is more of a 250 pitch.

Kane doesn't look settled at all.

Yeah, there was plenty of seam early on as well. Think we've decided the final 10 is when it will be easiest so we're keeping wickets in hand for that.

Or maybe it’s the lack of form of NZ batters making hard work of it?
18 overs to go with 8 wickets in hand, slow pitch or not, we have 120 runs - we need a rocket

@ACT-Crusader something about dry powder.

Fuck Rossco what the hell are you doing?

Taylor looks unsure against the turn.

It definitely doesn't look like the type of pitch where you can come out swinging ball one. Whether it is as bad as Taylor just made it look who knows?
It's one thing if CdG or Latham play a rear guard action and makes the pitch look like a 250 deck... But Kane in red hot form has almost faced 100 balls and Taylor 50 and it still looks challenging.
The real question is will our bowlers be able to hit their areas?

This is why Taylor will never be rated amongst the greats.
I'm hoping that is one of those reverse curse comments.
Roscoe to come right and crank it up soon.
Crank up those miss hits and shots straight to fielders 😀

Kane showing some intent now.
15 overs to go, 8 wickets in hand. We have a platform, time for some fireworks.

Forgive my numptyness, but doesn't part of the front foot have to be on/behind the line for a fair delivery?
Just behind, can be in the air.
