Number Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 (edited) RRR just reached over 6. Santner was troubling Babar and Haris. Why would a captain bring dibbly dobly part timer into the attack at this point. Possible reasons a) The ball was turning - But Munro is not a spinner he bowled Right arm medium b) 5th bowler quota - There were already 11 overs bowled by CDG, Neesham and Williamson combined Munro conceded 8 and gave much needed momentum to Pakistan.

flat_wicket_bully Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 No logic here. It was complete brainfart Link to comment
Nikola Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Williamson himself bowled 8 or 9 overs for no reason. He had many overs left of henry or ferguson back then but still kept bowling and gave easy runs to pak. Link to comment
Ankit_sharma03 Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Coz the ball was turning and they went for part time spinners like munro n williamson as they only had one spinner in santner Link to comment
Aiden Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 (edited) To increase overrate Because Williamson already fined and got detrimental point for slow over rate in previous match. If he does again he will get a ban for one match. Edited June 27, 2019 by Aiden Gollum 1 Link to comment

coffee_rules Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Yes, and after Munro, Williamson bowled another over before the main bowlers, by that time, the pressure had eased off. Was the match fixed or what? Link to comment
thecricketer Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Stupid captaincy from Williamson. The required run rate was up and climbing, six main bowlers had plenty of overs left, still, you went for non regular bowlers from both ends. Not picking Sodhi was also a big mistake from New Zealand Captain Link to comment
Rasgulla Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 If he got a wicket in that over will people still be moaning ??? Nikola and sandeep 1 1 Link to comment

In some situations, being cautious and pragmatic is good, whereas in others it can backfire. I enjoyed baz's captaincy more than willy's, although some could argue that the latter is better than the former. Link to comment

Just like Hafeez. but hafeez was a batting allrounder for pak over the span of more than 1 decade. munro is even more of a part-timer for NZ (in terms of wkts/match) than willy. I think it was more of a temporary brainfade on willy's part. Link to comment
Vijy Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 3 minutes ago, Shaz1 said: I mean he saw that his normal plan of keeping Santher was not working. Pakistani batsmen were playing it too safe against him. So he probably thought of thinking outside of the box. Sometimes that works and sometimes it doesn’t. I gurentee you if Munro got a wicket this thread would not be existing right now. yes, I agree this thread would not exist. but it was still a bad move with low probability of success, since munro is an all-rounder only at domestic level; in int'l matches he is pretty much treated as a specialist slogger and very rarely bowls. it's like kohli coming on to bowl, but only slightly better.
