Jay Posted February 26, 2022 Author Share Posted February 26, 2022 Humiliate them please. Thanks. Jansen is good but he can be worked out. Novelty factor wore off for kylie jammu. We will be better prepared for Jansen next time we tour. 3 stooges gifted wickets to him. Link to comment

Getting gloved down the leg side. Chasing wide balls. If they had Vernon Philander instead of these guys he would have run through. Movement was always there. But these guys were unable to etract much. Sipamla was able to move. But marginal. KG bowled well. But bouncers don't really go that high. We have to stop including N in SENA lol These pitches can be more docile than Rajkot some times. Jay 1 Link to comment

Even a draw would be enough to make NZ lose out dearly on WTC points. This is most docile pitch I have seen in Hagley Oval in last few years. They probably thought Saffers will roll over. Same mistake like we did in Joburg test this year after win in centurion. Sipamla is Okayish but Ngidi being injured has probably hurt SA here. There is Nortje as well. SA tour of Aus this year will be watchable if Nortje Jansen Rabada Ngidi all stay fit. Link to comment

But then our middle 3 in s.africa were our worst players who should never played in the first place. Pensioner club. SA got lucky. wont be so lucky next time. we will put out our full strength team without a dud captain like kuli kali. Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 Jansen is going places. Relentless short bowling. He is making this happen> Not the Ishant sharma type of short balls. 138 kph balls. After giving trouble to both CDG and KJ finally nailed KJ Lone Wolf 1 Link to comment

Our useless middle order made him look like a God. He is good but not that good yet. India A did well against him. If we had our best middle order we could have probably won the series vs saffers. S.africa are missing ngidi. Poor bowling to let them get to 293 tbh. They can still win it however. Link to comment
Frustrated Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 Elgar gone cheaply yet again when his team needed him the most. Is he still missing the indian bowlers? Link to comment

Frustrated Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 SA 38/3. Lead by 109. Test is moving towards an exciting finish (likely) Link to comment

Not sure how difficult chasing is in n.z. but team that bowls first usually has the advantage. Anything less than 220 is chaseable here I guess. From past history, many teams don't score 300 plus in first innings so I am guessing this is a flat pitch. Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 NZ is entering into rebuilding phase. Watling retired recently. Ross Taylor retired. WIlliamson not playing. Boult is not playing. For South Africa, De Kock retirement is a set back. This is a test for their line up. More than anything Williamson's captaincy is missed by New zealanders. Link to comment
Frustrated Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 (edited) Partnership almost 70. Lead is nearing 200. Every run scored from here on would add to NZ's woes. There is always the pressure of chasing on the team batting last. Edited February 27, 2022 by Frustrated Link to comment

Lone Wolf Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 Saffers so far have done everything right. India also took first inns lead of mere 7 runs here(could have been 50-60 if not for KJ).. SA didn't let that happen. They also had a mini collapse in 2nd whereas we were totally rolled over. Overall SA has a better chance right now. If they get to 300 lead they will win. Link to comment

Elgar won the toss & batted first here for a reason. It was not a green top. Hit the deck bowling is working here. Adamant 1 Link to comment
