New Zealand v Sri Lanka: 3 ODI's, 1 T20. January 2019

[Meth]

Neesham gets Chandimal now. Caught by Taylor at midwicket

211/4

 

[Meth]

So, Southee for Henry in game 2?

 

[Iafeta]

Quick question. Tim Seifert... have they pulled this chump out of B grade for Masterton Red Star? He makes Matt Wade look like the second coming of Jack Russell with the gloves.

we've looked like we need a long stop at times.

 

[Iafeta]

Matt Henry and Trent Boult are fair dinkum pulling their puds with the way they’ve bowled.

I think the tea drinkers will get them here.

 

[Meth]

Sodhi picks up Gunaratne. Ferguson takes the catch down in cow corner. Big wicket. It'll be tough for Sri Lanka from here

 

[Meth]

Ferguson gets the other Perera, having bowled a great over. Munro covers a lot of ground from backward point to take a great running catch.

273/6

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

99 off 48. That's tough, especially with the lower order coming in. Don't think they have anyone who can Neesham it from here outside of Perera.

 

[Meth]

Not too bad from Sodhi in the end

 

[JJ]

I've alway thought Jimmy was a test player only, but he's been terrific on return

If we win they'll give MoM to Guptill I expect, but IMO should be Neesham

 

[JJ]

And that is a terrific hundred

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Poor over from Henry and yet the RRR still goes up.

Sri Lanka has a lot of youngsters in their top 6. Hard to get a read on some of them. None of them average over 33, but there is some flashes of talent there.

Neesham for mine as well

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

6 of one, half dozen of another. I'd be happy with either Guppy or Neesh.

 

[JJ]

perera gone, should be over now

Really hope they do the right thing and acknowledge Neesham

Taylor played well too,and Williamson obviously Guptill

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

That's game surely.

 

[vvvrulz]

Good win on a dead surface.

Neesh, Kane and Guppy excellent.

Henry and Seifert were garbage, especially disappointed in the former as he’s got potential, but he’s had plenty of shots now.

Southee, Boult and Ferg are surely our paceman now, and Santa is bound to return too.

 

[Meth]

Guptill got man of the match, but Neesham’s runs and then Neesham’s wickets ended up being crucial. For game 2, I’d consider resting Boult and bringing in Bracewell for Henry.

 

[Meth]

So, tomorrow I'd be keen to see-

Munro
Guptill
Williamson
Taylor
Nicholls
Neesham
Bracewell
Seifert
Southee
Sodhi
Ferguson

 

[vvvrulz]

CDG fell out of favour?

You can only afford one of him, Neesham or Anderson. Santner coming back will be interesting.
