Tom Not Pakistan, Sri Lanka, West Indies, or Bangladesh Test Sides Latham.

So... banking on Henry Nicholls.

Or England as Tom has a test century against them as well.

And still an average of 29 against them.

Have finally made it to Bay Oval today among a few other stragglers, but the flow of people is mostly out now...

One more than you have against England Mate.

Donsteppa

Even relative to the first two days, it's become much more of an English home crowd, especially with the scoreboard situation...

Embarrassing Black Caps fuck me lose defence again no fight what so ever.
The quality of batting is not even club standard piss poor technique.

If that's the standard we have to post to, we'll have to shut down the whole forum now...

I would back myself for a well compiled 0 (1).

KiwiMurph

So Matt Henry to come in for test 2 presumably.

Any other changes? Young?

Has to be Young or Philipps for Nicholls. Also Henry and Bracewell

Well by the looks you don’t need any sort of defensive technique to play Cricket for the Black Caps anymore, So everyone is up for selection I reckon I could knick one threw slips and jag a boundary.

So long as these two bat out the rest of the evening session and then through to tea tomorrow we are a shout.

Young will score not much he is vulnerable to knick off as he loses his off stump, Poms will love him.

They've already amassed an 11 run partnership, England will be worried

Both are well capable of big hundreds under pressure.

The key will be getting through tomorrow's night session with wickets in hand.

Not sure They both are capable of a big innings under pressure in a test match,
Mitchell yes we have seen it Bracewell hasn’t so is he capable.

Bracewell nearly single handedly beat India in ODI a couple of weeks ago from a similar situation.

That was a ODI innings a lot different to a test match.
As for tests 74 not out one good innings and 7 failures doesn't tell me he is capable of 150 which is a big score under pressure.I hope he does but a I out of 8 test innings in Test Cricket doesn't prove he can.

Donsteppa

That unbeaten partnership at the end clearly has England on the ropes. I'll be back there tomorrow with great expectations. The scoreboard had us well ahead of the required run rate too.
