*Official* New Zealand in Sri Lanka 2012

Flem274*

123/5
if we bowl like this on subcontinent pitches how will we go at home?

england will take this attack lightly at their peril. good players but while they'll maul our batting, these boys can bowl

okay, as i was saying before i ran around my room cheering, tbf to dilshan that ball was put in a position where he wasn't sure what to do, and his first instinct is attack. it was bowled with purpose and put in an awkward area.
yeah it was a perfect length.

This ball isn't even swinging.

Southee is just awesome right now.

Sri Lanka send out their last good batsmen in a panic. Time to capitilise!!!

EDIT: Forgot about Samaraweera.

It's amazing the difference in Southee's body language to a year or two ago. Then he was fodder and he knew it. Now (in my imagination) he looks at the batsman like they're his prey and he knows how to get them.

I also suspect it really helps him having Boult at the other end - they're used to bowling together and I think also Boult is quite a clever bowler.
