Trying to dominate the captain first over is a dumb move.
Get your eye back in first idiots.
Very arrogant batting!

To be fair it was unusually a no footwork smash straight to a fielder.

Batting lineup as brittle as caramel shards.

Great to see the Windies have a go, something that they have been lacking for a while now.

Marsh who has been dropped this morning almost chops on.

Luck on our side thus far.

Dodged a bullet there but right arm around is difficult to get LBW unless it straightens.

NZ commentators talking up Kuggeleijn as a bowling change master stroke. Not sure why. First class average over 100 plus matches is 367 at 31.

I thought Armie summed it up well when he said he bowls like a 12 year old.

Terrible review by NZ. Keep burning them.

Yeah I like him

Good innings by Carey so far…..hopefully he can go with it. NZ losing the plot a bit

Stats.

Kuggeleijn credited with a maiden but 6 leg byes and 4 byes.

The anomaly that is byes and leg byes not going against the bowler.


Carey brings up his 50. Batting with great concentration. See us through to lunch boys.

And the luck keeps going our way. NZ lose their second review.

Lunch. 5/174 trail by 105.

Carey has batted beautifully. Marsh has slowed it up in the last 20 minutes and has had more than an ounce of luck.

Evenly poised.

I was going to say Carey is looking very organised nek minit Henry raps him on the pads and he survives the review (positive press forward helped)

So I won’t say anything about how “Lucky” is going….
