Black Caps - Bangladesh tour 2021

[No Quarter]

Awesome to see us get the win after the heartbreak of game 2. That's gotta be the tactic though, bat first and grind out 100 - 120, then scoreboard pressure plus a dodgy pitch work together to make chasing very difficult.

[Donsteppa]

Batting first in game four. Ravindra has a bit to learn about batting patience it seems, having just thrown away his wicket to a good catch after four dot balls to start the innings. He gets his chance for redemption with the ball later though…

[canefan]

Allen erupts. That reverse sweep was clean as a whistle. But he has to control himself, we need him to stay a while

[canefan]

You farken dick. Not a surprise. Why didn't Latham go tell him to calm the fuck down?

[Donsteppa]

Allen is a great striker of the ball, but that was just dumb. And he knows it, judging by his reactions waking off…

[Donsteppa]

So…Bangladesh have just reviewed an LBW shout off Will Young to a ball that kept low.. off the full face of the bat!?

Compounded by the fact that Young looks very uncomfortable out there

[canefan]

CDG is up next. This feels bad

2.6 Nasum to Young, no run
Here comes the shooter: zips in from around the wicket. Young just about jams it out. Or did that smash the pad first? Not given out lbw, and Nasum calls for a review. Replays indicate bat first and only bat. It didn't hit the pad at all

[canefan]

Young is all at sea right now. Just wasting deliveries

[canefan]

Crucial DRS on Latham. Didn't look much in real time. Bangles maybe wasting their second DRS shout. They are worse than us!

[canefan]

Shit

[Rapido]

Disagree with the criticism of the first 2 wickets, but that by Tom was a bit silly v an offie, at this stage.

We were going well. Only need a hundredish.

Needed to keep ticking it over until about the 15th.

He was under no pressure. Now Nicholls gone. We are going down

[Rapido]

Ugh, should be Blundell before CdG.

Ha, doesnt matter.

[canefan]

Hopefully that's the last we see of Colin.

Na he'll play all 5, plus 3 Pakistan ODIs. The only other options on tour are trailenders.

Ah maybe Doug actually.

[canefan]

Message for CDG

[Rapido]

Really, really poor by Tom. I reiterate. Hard to get in on this wicket. He'd got there.

The 2 subsequent are just 2 new batsmen exposed to good spin bowling, that happens.

[Donsteppa]

Just saw a tweet claiming CdG’s batting average in his last nine T20I’s is 3.33.
