They are mentally shot against them even before the game. We are their bogey team though. I guess we complicate things too much against them. Link to comment
Lord Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 Damn hope they play Southee over Henry Henry is in good form and did well vs us Link to comment
Lone Wolf Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 Will be very funny If NZ drops Henry for Boult. Southee & KJ are a lock already. This is a bigger headache than Shami vs Siraj debate. Link to comment

The reason why both of them were rested. Wagner will miss out coz of Patel. A spinner is needed in Rose bowl. Link to comment
Sgattick10 Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 So Pant made 121 of 94 ball, Gill made 85 Link to comment

Last test was his first outside and he was poor His batting is a bonus and not good for an AR India will love if Patel plays.will be way easier than Wagner Link to comment

I understand but our guys suck vs left arm seam,so there's a case Plus last game he was getting it to go in to RHB.Has added that perhaps Still will be tougher than Patel for us Link to comment

You need a good left right combo to counter wagner boult. every other team handle southee well except us. southee is the main problem and probably patel knowing rahane and kuli vs spin. Issue can be fixed, however, ball is in dunderhead's court. Link to comment

SLA's don't trouble us.I can already imagine Pant repeatedly coming down and hitting him for six.Maybe Jaddu too Wagner doesn't bowl short only.He does that when there's pace or there's no swing.Otherwise he does mix it up and gets it to shape in.Also decent with reverse swing. I see Henry as big problem if he plays.The WC SF is still fresh in memory Link to comment

The way Henry is bowling I think NZ will be making a very controversial call on Henry. Jamieson was very handy with the new ball in last test on a flat pitch. His first experience with duke ball wasn't bad at all. He is their 2nd best atm behind Southee. Pujara Kohli won't love if Patel plays. Left arm spin troubles them. Wagner is more or less useless on soft pitches. Link to comment

Yeah he sucks with Kookaburra hasn't got a consistent run too. But with dukes & his history with Indian top order & the way he is wrecking England.. I will hope he doesn't get to play which is most likely. Link to comment

Boult has been okay just not brilliant.Even here he took 4fer in first innings Henry will trouble us big time if he plays How is 3/113 very handy.On same flat pitch Southee got 6. Wagner is getting inswing now.And our guys dont play left arm seam well When was the last time SLA troubled us big time.Even in last series it was Moeen who got Kohli while Leach was played easily.and those were turners Link to comment

He got lucky with tail wickets & comfortably looked least impressive of all the quicks. Leach wasn't played easily. Pujara kept dancing throughout. Only our lefties Pant & Sundar & too a extent Rohit managed to tame him. Moeen actually was giving easy runs as well. Edited June 12, 2021 by Lone Wolf Link to comment
