Oh well never mind
Hahaha haha1 -
They'll take it in a good sportsman like way...
Yer right!0 -
Every member of the SACB should fall on his/her sword after this pathetic performance, which was always on the cards. A complete overhaul of cricket in South Africa is required and it's time they took their heads out of the sand where they're currently but unsuccessfully trying to hide. Resign now if you want to retain one iota of respect... And so on, and so forth.0

Those words sound a tad familiar....
Sarcasm or hero worship ?

Afghanistan won the toss and elected to bat against NZ. Only change on either side is Young back into the side for the oh so unfortunate Williamson. Young has already been dropped at slip
12-0 off 30 -
Actually they are bowling2
-
Young obviously took his harsh dropping personally.0

Indeed though I suspect most might have concluded that from the fact that I said that Young had "been dropped at slip"bolloxbolder said:Actually they are bowling0 -
And Ravindra was dropped on next to nothing at midwicket too. The fielding has been dreadful.Cafc43v3r said:Young obviously took his harsh dropping personally.0 - Sponsored links:

And now a missed stumping of Ravindra off the bowling of Rashid0
-
109-1 off 20 though could easily have been about 80-30
-
Fortunately for Azmat you don't have to rely on the fielding if you can send middle stump cart wheeling albeit as a result of a pretty average hoick across the line. Ravindra out for 32 (41). Ravindra and Conway between them have scored 464 runs in NZ's first four matches.
109-2 off 20.20 -
And almost immediately followed by an inside edge off the bowling of Azmat again, excellently caught one handed by the diving keeper, Ikram. Young out for 54 (64)
110-3 off 21and a whole new ball game with two new batsmen at the crease0 -
Unbelievable scenes! Mitchell is caught at midwicket off Rashid for 1 (7). Three wickets lost for just one run!
110-4 off 21.40 -
To put that in perspective, the remaining NZ batsmen have just 124 runs between them to date albeit mostly due to limited opportunities due to the previous success of their top fourAddick Addict said:Fortunately for Azmat you don't have to rely on the fielding if you can send middle stump cart wheeling albeit as a result of a pretty average hoick across the line.

Oh my word! Mujeeb has just tried to catch a ball with one hand instead of two and dropped an absolute sitter off Rashid. The fourth missed opportunity of regulation or even easier standard
192-4 off 410 -
I really can't believe this but Hashmat has just dropped yet another off Rashid. That's five chances gone down and none were in any way hard to take. Their coach, Jonathan Trott, must be tearing his hair out watching this!
205-4 off 430 -
And a difficult one dropped by Rashid himself running back. Chance number six gone down.0
-
At last a chance is taken. Phillips caught off a full bunger by Rashid running in from long off for 71 (80) off Naveen0

-
And Naveen then bowls Latham trying to scoop one for 68 (74)
255-6 off 47.30 -
Boy were Afghanistan made to suffer for those half a dozen missed opportunities with NZ making 78 off the final 6 overs to finish on 288-6

New Zealand must be pretty pleased. Should of been bowled out with less than 240 on the board.0
-
Matt Henry. Made in Kent. Takes a wicket.0
-
For the purpose of a contest, this game is all but officially over. Whereas Afghanistan were 79-0 off 10 against us, they are currently 28-20
-
Afghanistan 139 all out. NZ win by 149 runs. Afghanistan were awful in two of the three disciplines.2
-
Kohli is bowling!!!0
-
After 5 overs, Bangladesh were 10-0. After 10 overs they are 63-0!0
-
Pandya has had to go off injured, hence Kohli finishing that over. That is, potentially, a massive loss as he gives India the balance that no other player in their squad can.0
-
110-2 off 20
Pandya will not field again and will not be allowed to bat until the earlier of 120 minutes and loss of 5 wickets0
