West Indies tour of New Zealand

[Ari]

Bell got 69 in his last innings in Napier, since then How has failed to do better than that in 8 tests. He needs to go back to first class cricket for awhile. Bell is the only other option I can see right now the other guys like Watling, Guptill etc still have plenty to prove.

Chanderpaul needs 32 runs to pass Sobers for 3rd place on the all time West Indies run scorers list.

Well I do hope he gets them, but exceed that and get another biggie. If we can take early wickets, and hold NZ to below 350, then I will be please!!! This wicket I can see Daniel V, creating demons for us!!!

holding them under 350 would be great. We just have to hope that the vets can make Vettori work. Marshall will be the 1st one to get out to Vettori. When Australia was in the Caribbean he was taking on Lee without a problem but when the spinners came on he struggled.

Maybe part of the reason How is still there is his decent ODI record. I think he averages about 35 after 15 or so games?

The day belonged to New Zealand, as they played cautiously in the first hour losing only one wicket. Flynn played well for his 95 and was given out by the third umpire through the referral system which is used in this series. Ryder also shared an important partnership with Flynn and remains unbeaten on 54.

bloody rain
any chances of play today?

 

[Dare]

inspection in 2 hours, im thinking if there is no more rain in 2 hours it should be fine to play.

 

[Raj_Aryan]

There are still 2 more hours for inspection,at 2pm umpires will come down on ground for the inspection...

This is a disgrace. Te drainage can't be good enough. Don't let Dunedin host tests at this time of the year. It's a beautiful day here, why can't they gt a test ground in CHCH.

 

[Dare]

where is the 2nd test being played, and how long till the play starts?


boy this is some sad stuff with this stuff on the field. Who puts cat litter on the ground.

 

[irottev]

Napier

Why the hell did they put kitty litter on the outfield? Unbelievable. Dunedin is a disgrace, don't let them stage another one.

On the bright side, it's pretty funny (if you put the fact that we haven't had cricket in a day and a half and now we have ANOTHER UNNECESSARY DELAY). This never would have happened before.
