Back to the Cricket. We're obviously not praying to the right deity as Pakis hit 2hundy for 4.
Babar Azam reaches 3 figures.
My fault. Turned off for family commitments.
What a drop though, from 12 to 161 and counting...150 runs is painful

I dont really expect NZ to pass 300 once this series, so I'd say game over already.
Although I'd say a 0-2 ws odds on anyway, so no big hot take.
May be being too pessimistic, but they've earned by pessimism this last 12 months.
Taylor retiring and Boult and Jamieson not available has left the team looking vulnerable…….but there is enough class to compete.
The form drop is alarming though.

The leg spinner who bowls short long hops,full tosses and short pitched googlies,
He does not deserve his name spelt correctly until he can bowl leg spin.
In fact if NZ can not produce a decent spinner don’t pick crap options. -

I do agree though, the way NZ shoehorns a spinner for the sake of having a spinner pisses me off to no end when so many of them are not up to it.

Club level. -

Club level.Yep, not sure of you read my edit but our depth is starting to get exposed when our top guys aren’t available.
Vettori must look at some of the options and shake his head in disgust.

Must be a decent young option in NZ they could pick and stick with him,Someone who can naturally spin the ball, control will come with time , I see young kids over here who can turn it sideways all the time,Control is lacking but they get picked as you can’t really teach a player to rip the ball it’s natural.
But you can help with the control factor with,volume bowling and a few tricks. -

But even then Vettori was a kiwi great…..not a genuine world class great.

Didn’t really spin the ball Vettori , clever bowler used changes of pace and angles really well.
He understood how to exploit any flaw in a batting technique.
With 4 of the test playing nations in the sub continent now you need decent spinners,as there will be a lot of test’s played there in the future. -

All varying degrees of absolute class and better than anything the other three have produced. I think Timmy and Wags need to step up too.
