*Official* New Zealand in Sri Lanka 2012

[_Ed_]

Phwoar. Great shot.

 

[Flem274*]

Isn't the batting like an idiot something your not short of anyway?

Anyway what about Fleming surely he's available?

would love fleming back

**** our tail looks terrifyingly long. We desperately need runs from these two and Flynn.

 

[straw man]

can't believe people argue the charm of the umpires and technology isnt 100% call is why we shouldnt have udrs.

i mean mccullum getting angry is pretty funny, but that was a bit dire.

(yes i know SL couldnt afford the tech, which is why udrs needs to become official and funding provided)

Was listening to Barry Richards go on about this in the SA/Aus game before - about 20% of it made sense but the rest was a complete load of bs

That sounds hopelessly optimistic.

 

[Flem274*]

Williamson looks ominous today.

He'll get out now I've said that.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

C'mon guys lets save some wickets to lose to the spinners

Think he looks more relaxed and confident, strangely.

Still managed to defend a half-volley outside off to gully just now though.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Is he still hanging the bat out at everything within reach? Sounds like it by what cricinfo's saying.

 

[Bahnz]

Taylor looking very edgy atm.

not at all. he's played at one, but he middled the defensive shot. he's been leaving well.

 

[Flem274*]

morrison in the commentary booth. going to be half an hour of hard work for both nz and sl.

 

[Hurricane]

New ball has a better seam unfortunately

 

[Flem274*]

i dont like this ball. taylor needs to ensure we get another one.

 

[straw man]

Van Wyk should bat ahead of Astle imo. Primarily to tell Astle that his first job in the side is as a bowler.

omg Williamson with the prod - lucky

 

[Mike5181]

Kane's still playing at those then.

 

[Flem274*]

when we bowl every five overs we should split the seam and get a new ball unless we have the spinners planned to come on.

 

[Hurricane]

Steve - what is the deal with balls going out of shape - is it a real hindrance for the bowler's efforts?

 

[Mike5181]

Don't see any reason why Astle would bat above Van Wyk.

 

[straw man]

Kane's still playing at those then.

He's leaving a little better but has still been drawn into playing at 4 or 5
