Pak 4/347 Yousuf 89 Guptill 11-2-28-2!!!! A lead of 99 runs. What a great days play, Guptill shocking, Yousof class batting, Umar trying to get himself out, Taylor starting to drop slip catches (can he concentrate for long periods??), and Vettori captaincy. Oh what a day..test cricket at its best!!!!
Guptill now becomes a real ODI player, he can bowl 5 or 6 overs for 20 to 30 runs?? To go with his batting and fielding.
I believe the game WILL be a draw.Pak. don’t want to lose and we won’t risk a run chase. Yes then it will come down to Kaniera. He is the key.
More good Plunket performances, Raval 134, Broom 86no (how many more runs does he need??), Merchant 93 (a big future??), Anderson 11.3-4-22-5. Gosh he’s still only 19, could he be in the ODI squad?? (with Broom, instead of Oram. Oram HAS to prove he can still play).
My player of the day, is right out of left field. Bennett 16-6-39-4. They say he is the quickist around, but so many injuries. If he’s fit I would play him against Bangledesh.
Just another Blogtown NZ weblog
I am listening to the Test and following this amazing runchase on the net. Ingram and How have now got the highest open stand in NZ first class history. This is wonderful stuff.
Go New Zealand, GO you good things!!!
It was awesome listening to the last day, with the Plunket Shield as well. Don’t for get Otago!!!!
