Just hate the idea of losing to Afghanistan and more specifically Rashid Khan. Arrogant little man
He always looks seriously ill or like he uses a lot of hard drugs :lol:

Rashid is too good. Simple as that. Needed to be chasing 200.
He is awesome, but if you're sensible and have skills you should last a bit.

That was a good ball Bennett got. Didn't pick it again, thought it was a googly, or a top spinner.

And Newman lasts a couple only. We had this game nailed down even chasing 250. Some poor stuff again. Another good ball, not turn, just bounce.

We're a fickle bunch 😄 last game when we scored hundreds for fun we weren't saying that.

We just don't select players who can compete at this level, that's the issue. I'm not convinced over Gumbie opening or Kaitano at number 3. There has got to be a change for that Ireland test. They'll no doubt bring in Wez and drop Curran..

Ngarava must try and hang around. If he starts hitting out I'm going to surrender from this nonsense. It's not dead yet.
Mostly dead but not yet.

Williams and Raza played two really stupid shots there. Everything hinged on them, and Bennett.

I think Bennett went out to the identical delivery last innings?

He's getting brutal turn and its staying low, so tough to keep out. That leg slip is going to come into play for a Ervine.

Ngarava has had a day to fix his new helmet.
