The plucky little Kiwis are doing well to hang with the Might of the Banga’s.

World champions showing great fight

Surely the Bangers add 2/20 and declare immediately?

 

[_snafu_]

I reckon I could get a ton on this wicket against 2nd grade bowling.

 

[Mr Spock!]

Good selection dropping the bloke who took 10 wickets in an innings for a bloke whose wickets average 50 in fc cricket.

 

[JJ]

Oh well, being good at test cricket was great while it lasted…

 

[Eelectrica]

Bangers still haven't declared? Do they even Test Cricket?
Declare now, take 5 wickets before the close of play, then just add 2/20 and the Kiwi's would be almost out when play starts tomorrow. Only if they declare now though. Offer won't last.

This wicket is pretty lame, but our performance lamer. Worst since we toured Australia, and it started with a poor ill disciplined performance with the bat…. The entire top 6 got out softly or at very bad times…

Bangladesh have been much more disciplined, I think we were complacent and poorly prepared

Bangers 6/439

Lead by Lord Nelson
111

Man for man they’ve just thoroughly outplayed us tbh…. It’s a bit like watching the Tigpies vs the Warriors though…

world champions missing their captain I think, mainly for his leadership, he sets the tone for professionalism and effort… and is a handy bat

It's likely to be a draw but NZ have looked completely directionless from the bits I've watched IMO.

Like they expected Bangladesh to just fall in a heap and had no plan to actually beat them

Yep, pretty complacent and almost arrogant performance imo

63/2 67 behind and looking shaky

That was literally the funniest review ever, he literally middled it

Not even the great Tim Paine reviews that

The plucky Kiwis with a lead of 6 with 7 wickets in hand, can they stave off the night of the Banga’s???
