*Official* Pakistan in New Zealand 2020/21

[ParwazHaiJunoon]

Looks like Naseem has changed his action a little bit. His pace is around 135kph.

Possibly a bit less sling in his action. Maybe he's not taking his left arm across his body at the point of release. Could be doing it for greater accuracy, or to keep himself more injury-free, I would think

Gotta give some credit to Taylor here, I didn't think he still had it in him to play a battling innings like this.

 

[straw man]

grats Taylor, now double it for your 20th

 

[trundler]

Well deserved and entirely infuriating 50. Why the **** has he rediscovered how to play a properly gritty test innings all of a sudden grrr

 

[nightprowler10]

Yeah this looks like 150 partnership in the making.

sigh...

 

[trundler]

Taylor marked his prey pretty well. Beast mode being unleashed.

Or as our Arab friends would say, Bebsistan.

[hendrix]

Don't think Pakistan have bowled all that well

This is NZ conditions. You need to be full of a good length.

Wow, ripper of a ball. took off for one that's 56.4 overs old.

 

[straw man]

Ok Pakistan, time to drop Nicholls five times on his way to 50.

If Nicholls was on the Challenger Space Shuttle, I'm pretty sure he would have survived.

Harder to get rid of than a ****roach

 

[nightprowler10]

So so sloppy in the field. ffs.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Okay so I can pick Neil Adcock in a draft but can't mention an insect

 

[straw man]

How much of a road will this wicket turn into?

Reckon it will really flatten out, won't believe any talk of fifth day breaking up until I see it either.

 

[Athlai]

Big Daddy boxing day

Yeah I’ve been questioning his output over the last couple of years but still want him to get through the last phase of his career in style. Wish he’d made it century no 20 today, but good throwback nonetheless (battling 70 coming in at 13 for 2).
