New Zealand Tour Of Uae

[Kram81]

Brownlie copped a shite LBW.. NZ 2 for 54 in the 8th.

 

[Kram81]

And now Afridi knocks over Williamson 3 for 58 in the 10th, mini collapse from NZ after a good start. Anyway I'm off to bed..

 

[futureblackcap]

Nice to get a win. Wonder why Milne wasn't playing..

 

[Kram81]

Stupid IQ wouldn't record it for some reason.. Pretty comfortable NZ win anyway.

 

[Kram81]

That first lbw Devcich picked up was a massive howler from the umpire ha.

 

[futureblackcap]

First ODI starts tonight.

 

[Kram81]

Starts 7pm here, should catch most of the 1st innings.

10:50 here...

 

[Kram81]

New Zealand choose to bat 0 for 19, that's some beard that Devcich is sporting!

 

[Kram81]

5 for 136 with Taylor on 56*, he and Ronchi need to steady the ship here to get some sort of a score.

 

[Ljp86]

I'm glad NZ have finally figured out that playing Neesham and Anderson in the same side is not a good idea. They seem to be romanced by the idea of having guys in the side who can bat and bowl.

 

[Kram81]

Taylor really struggling with timing and getting bogged down, he's 58 of 100 now.

And bang Ronchi getting a few good ones away to the boundary..

 

[Kram81]

wtf Luke not really needed at this stage.

 

[futureblackcap]

Not a bad start by New Zealand. Still need to find some runs from players other than Rossco or Kane.

Latham looked good until Rossco ran him out.

 

[ioppolo]

Not sure what to make of Devcich's beard.

Not sure what to make of Devcich's beard.

Never mind his beard, his batting was atrocious! We don't need anymore players who don't use their feet...

The kiwis have had a fine tradition over the years of opening batsmen that have lead boots coupled with no talent

 

[Kram81]

Good start for NZ 2 wickets in the first 2 overs, plus one that was disallowed because of a no ball.

 

[Kram81]

Shezad century, 2 for 192 odd 35 overs, Pakistan are going to post a massive total here.

I watched the last part of the Pakistan innings on Sunday night and that was some of the worst bowling I've ever seen. Half volleys, waist high full tosses, half trackers, short pitched balls which went way over the batsman's head, it was horrendous. Whatever happened to bowling full and straight at the stumps?
