2nd test: NZ v Pakistan

[African Monkey]

Some disgusting stroke play after a good start from their openers.

 

[Hallatia]

early wicket to Pakistan, Mohammad Aamer gets Guptill for zero after Pakistan all out for 264, which is a bit of a fightback from 161/6

Tuffey and Vettori took 4 a piece, it's a funny looking scorecard, only 4 different names had a hand in dismissals

 

[African Monkey]

What a comical drop from Salman Butt. I think he dropped it on purpose.

what are you talking about? I didn't realise play had returned, but Butt took a catch and McIntosh is out ...

He dropped Daniel Flynn on 0.

our top order is so useless. The only person I would consider of test standard atm is Taylor. The rest however would struggle to make Sheffield Shield lineups.

 

[African Monkey]

NZ all out for 99. Our batting is nothing more than a pathetic joke.

 

[lockyno1]

No Bond=No NZ

 

[Hallatia]

you can't put this on Bond, New Zealand bowled really well, it is the batting which was the problem ...

 

[Collingwood Storm]

The Pakis could be a handful this summer. Asif is finding his form and they have that 17yr old leftie bowling well. You never know with their batting though.

Na they don't have a settled batting lineup at this stage to be a threat to you guys.

Younis Khan will add plenty if he comes out,but their Batting will let them down they will put up a better fight than the Windies though.

Young Umar out for 50 of 32 balls, what a breath of fresh air!!

 

[African Monkey]

NZ 70/3 at stumps. Another pitiful batting display with Yousouf dropping the sitters of all sitters which could be a ploy to keep Fulton at the crease, and then they go on and drop Taylor at 1st slip. Our top6 would be on par with Bangladesh's atm.

Yep no Shakib in the Kiwi's side.

I can't wait for the best left-arm spinner in the world to come to NZ next year

 

[Hallatia]

I like these two at the crease, a solid partnership of 150 odd between these two should give New Zealand the match ... a partnership of 219 will give New Zealand the match, but I am sure the tail can produce some runs if these guys produce enough

 

[Usain Bolt]

NZ are sh*t at test cricket. bowled out for 99. LOL_WUT!

 

[Iafeta]

McIntosh, Flynn and Elliott survived only because of how weak the NZ domestic scene is. No quality bats in behind them.

Don't tell me that all kept their place??? Fulton can't even hit the straight ones :crazy:

 

[Meth]

Pretty much, all of the batsmen 1-6 aside from Taylor are lucky to be there at the moment. They are benefactors of each other's poor form.

Good to see Fulton axed. He should never have been there
