Winter 2020 cricket Aus, NZ, SA


Pakistan's session. Only 1 wicket lost. Odds still massively in favour of a New Zealand win by a big margin but at least they're being made to work for it.

Pakistan not losing a wicket in the 2nd session, tremendous batting really digging in.
36 overs left, 6 wickets left, 158 runs at 4.3 an over needed if they wanted to go for it...
Great test match cricket, it's good to have it back and England hopefully start in 2 weeks.
 
Great batting this

As much as I love NZ, these produce some awful pitches like.
Santner not up to it here on the last day like
 
If they went at 4.5 an over from here on in they win it.

Don't think they'd risk it like and nor should they. But all three results are on the table.

EDIT: Alam century. Brilliant innings.

Get in! Fantastic Fawad, imagine how that feels so long after his first?

Yeah its too much of ask for Pakistan to win it from here. I was just saying as they were 6/1 a few overs ago on betfair but a glut of maidens has put it out 30/1 now as Pakistan have signalled their intention is to draw the game.

If Fawad goes NZ to win
arrrrgh after all that, tired mind that like, just leave it

Ah man, well battled Pakistan

great viewing that, those are always the best games, a team hanging on late in day 5

Man how good does it look there, is this happening on the same planet as us?
Think I'd sacrifice a lot just to be transported there

Well deserved although the usual caveats apply. Can’t remember the last time they toured (yes there are reasons for that this year) never mind won. Apart from in Aus last winter where they got hammered
Absolutely ruthless at home mind

NZ are class at home, they are the darlings of the cricket media in this country though, they were so bad in Australia its untrue, yet it barely got a mentioned. I think we'd hammer them in England over 5 tests personally.

Wagner is such a weapon for them on those pitches, batsman dont like facing short bowling, at any level, and the difference with Wagner to others is he can pretty much do it all day long.

You can't help but like them

Not sure about hammering them, their attack would be a handful over here and Williamson scores runs anywhere. just wish we’d get the chance to find out! Hardly ever play them over here, just seems to be Oz, India, Pakistan and WI on a rota
 
Five Indian players have broken covid protocol by having a meal indoors. Just mentioned on big bash!
