Re: Sri Lanka V New Zealand 1st Test Is it a good idea to bat first at all in NZ?

Re: Sri Lanka V New Zealand 1st Test Quickfire 14 off 9 balls take SL past 150. They fold for 154. 35 overs to go today.

1.5 Malinga to Sinclair, 1 run, 151 kmh, he's cranking it up, this is faster than what bond bowled all day, flicked through midwicket

Re: Sri Lanka V New Zealand 1st Test bollocks. murali has begun. cummings bowled between the legs and then astle out lbw twice.

Re: Sri Lanka V New Zealand 1st Test Yeah Murali the nemesis doing it again for SL. Right from the moment he came on today he has meant business. Had few shouts against Flem and Cummings prior getting Cummings. From around the wicket pitched the ball on off/middle and straightened. Cummings hoping the ball will turn was front on but the ball went between his legs. Very bizarre way to get out. Astle was plumb too, bowling from around the stumps pitching on line and straightened it. Once Astle missed it was quite natural he was a goner. Oram is in but he is not such a good bat against spinners and particularly when he doesn?t attack. Oram looked out of sorts against spinners in the ICC CT. Flem although a touch tentative has showed plenty of application today. Hopefully he goes on to blunt Murali.

Re: Sri Lanka V New Zealand 1st Test Oram goes too, very soft dismissal. Hit straight to short mid wicket off Vaas. Now SL well and truly in the game. NZ 113/5

[Dhondy]

Re: Sri Lanka V New Zealand 1st Test Nah. Flem will rescue NZ. Besides, their batting begins about now. :hic:

[King]

Re: Sri Lanka V New Zealand 1st Test McCullum is a goner too. Vaas gets McCullum. McCullum not sure whether to leave it or not decides to in the end but the ball takes the inside edge and crashes on to the stumps. NZ has lost 4 wickets for 7 runs. Two old horses working for SL.

[King]

Re: Sri Lanka V New Zealand 1st Test Yup you are right there Dhondy, Vettori is among the better batters and Flem is showing some scoring intent against Murali. I guess we will have about 70-100 runs scored for the last three wickets :chin:

Re: Sri Lanka V New Zealand 1st Test wow did I borrow Ravi's karma

Re: Sri Lanka V New Zealand 1st Test Looks like it Desichap, the reason why I didn't post anything positive about NZ so far was for that reason. Now then welcome to the club of goat mouthers :hic:
