Test 2022 South Africa Tour of New Zealand (2 Tests)

[Plugger35]

Rabada gone but the damage is done, this lead is just about out of reach now for NZ.

 

[Crashy]

Century for Verreynne

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Verreynne gets his hundred.

Thought he was a poor mans ABDV, but he’s put that to bed.

 

[corbies]

Verreynne gets his hundred.

Thought he was a poor mans ABDV, but he’s put that to bed.

Would he still not be a poor mans ABDV? As he certainly isn't him.

 

[Santana]

Why is South Africa still batting?

 

[Maybe Tomorrow]

SA should declare now. NZ aren't going get 410+, all they are doing is using up overs. Each one they bat is one less for NZ to face.

 

[Crashy]

Hit out or get out come on

 

[freo_leo29]

Excellent innings by Verreynne

 

[Plugger35]

SA declare with a lead of 425, an NZ win out of the question now you would think, the best they can hope for is a draw.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Verreynne gets his hundred.

Thought he was a poor mans ABDV, but he’s put that to bed.

Being a poor man's AB is still no slouch. You're referring to one of the GOATs.

 

[Plugger35]

Not a good start for NZ with Young gone for a duck.

 

[Plugger35]

Latham gone cheaply now too.

An awful test from the NZ openers, in both innings they have scored a total of 4 runs between them.

 

[PhatBoy]

The more cricket passes, the more Elgar’s rocket to Rabada early in the India series looks to be a genius moment

 

[corbies]

Latham gone cheaply now too.

An awful test from the NZ openers, in both innings they have scored a total of 4 runs between them.

Latham now has 98 runs @ 9.8 against South Africa in his test career. You could set your watch to him making a double hundred v Bangladesh and doing **** all against South Africa this summer.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Latham now has 98 runs @ 9.8 against South Africa in his test career. You could set your watch to him making a double hundred v Bangladesh and doing fu** all against South Africa this summer

You only have to look at his averages vs WI, SL, Bangladesh and Zimbabwe vs his averages against the rest. Flat track bully personified.l which is why I've never rated him highly.

 

[The 747]

Rabada dishing out a beating to NZ today

 

[Stig O'Hara]

A Jaffa!!!

 

[PhatBoy]

A Jaffa!!!

It was beautifully bowled especially for his second ball, horribly played by Nicholls though

 

[corbies]

At least it wasn't an off spinner that made Nicholls look silly this time.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Maharajah gets Mitchell with another ripper.

4/81...

 

[PhatBoy]

Maharaj would have a fine record if he played more cricket on spinning pitches. He’s one of the few non Asian spinners since Swann retired who routinely gives the ball a lot of air

 

[Plugger35]

NZ 4/94 at stumps. a draw looking unlikely unless Conway can bat most of the day tomorrow with support from Blundell, de Grandhomme and the tail.

It doesn't look like there will be any rain tomorrow to help out either.

 

[PhatBoy]

The problem the kiwis have got is that in his current form, Rabada is unlikely to go a day without at least one burst of 2-3 wickets So it doesn’t leave them much to play with assuming that happens

 

[PhatBoy]

Incidentally **** Devon Conway is a jet

 

[sherb]

Three NZ bowlers in the SA second innings ended with 2-81.
