Miraz the number 9 just faced 102 balls with no problems whatsoever. I managed to watch the last few hours and I think maybe 4 spin deliveries did something. The rest was just way too easy for them. Not even one wicket from the spinners. All the wickets came when the ball was still relatively new.

Credit to Jarvis tho. He did his best and showed that he has the quality on a flat deck.

Now lets see Chari versus the Fizz :lol:

Surely these scores show that the pitch should be a batting one and our guys should at least put up some sort of fight. Does not matter if they have to block it or take their time, it should be a dead game.

This game is GONE. All we can do is bat for time. In a way this could be a good thing as it should extinguish any hopes of 2-0. Just bat for time. No reason to poke the bat at anything outside off stump.

I reckon we need a few more drops over the next couple of days.

Hami dropped already. Lets hope he makes it count like Monimul. The new ball is the key

I was about to comment but AC best me to it. Chari just steps down the wicket, doesn’t take his head to the ball.
Kevin Petersen renewed his career by going back to his old coach and just getting his head to the ball.
Hammy on the other hand is a bit prone to falling over and is susceptible to that leg stump delivery.
