@MN5 I know he’s only had 7 tests but Phillips averages would suggest a bowling all rounder rather than batting. Aves 17 and 33 respectively.
First class stats would suggest otherwise but we’ll see. That bowling average won’t stay like that at test level !
Maybe he needs to leapfrog Blundell and bat six ?

@MN5 can only hope it does stay that way, but yes tiny sample size. Blundell still close to 40 ave I think so probably correct order at the moment. Certainly promote Phillips if quick runs needed. Blundell better higher up if new ball due I would think, so good to have both options.

@Chris Yep - the time to win this game is right now!
Yes bat to a lead of $150 plus.
is that the odds you give us in achieving that?

@MN5 you've already been warned once. STFU with your positivity and optimism.
This is the fucking Black Caps we're talking about.
Amateur.
A more appropriate post at the end of play when NZ are involved is. "We are fucking doomed. We are only 570 in front with nine wickets in hand and we will be batting last against Kenya. We have no fucking chance".

@canefan and when they do I'll be getting the tar and feathers out for @MN5
I’ve predicted far worse in the past.
We got this, hundred coming up for one of our guys this innings plus some handy support. No bother.

Blundell gifts his wicket away with a terrible shot...
I thought it was OK - just poorly executed. And actually hitting the glove was a bit unlucky.
