The fern is obviously inconsolable after the Rugby.......

but for anyone who is interested the BCs are 256/6 in the 48th. Daryl Mitchell being Mr reliable as ever with an excellent hundy.

Just as well you didn't say anything sooner.

Yeah he got out for 119. Windies pegged things back a bit. 269-7.

49 from Conway. Forgettable innings from Young and Ravindra.

@MN5 Young was pretty funny. Went through a loooong setup, then walked off basically.

No Quarter

Mitchell is just outstanding these days, fashioning himself a formidable record averaging 44 in tests and 51 in ODIs. Where everyone else struggled he looked very assured, they'd be chasing 100 odd without him.

Bit hard to gauge our score, there is a bit in the wicket, but we'll need early breakthroughs or those 260 runs will whittle away very quickly.

Such a valuable player.

Jamieson with an early one. Looking like a white Joel Garner out there. Very nice catch from part time keeper Latham.

Real reminder of how little ODI cricket we play when Mitchell, who it feels like has been around forever, only has 51 ODIs

No Quarter

Something has to give soon here, WI need to up the rate or RPO will get out of hand, and we need more wickets as we don't want to be bowling to set batsmen in the final 10 overs

Gunner

WI targeting Bracewell now, and making it look quite easy.

We need a wicket soon.

MN5

They're not exactly scoring quick but they're still in, wickets in hand and lots of batting to come.

Game on.

booboo

Great catch Rachin. Steepling out of the dark

booboo

Must be cold in Chch. Crowd has gone home

Gunner

Bracewell has been expensive.

31 from 3, going 11, 10, 10.

You can almost forgive Santner for giving him a second chance after an expensive first over, but a third, why?

It’s not like we need his overs.

booboo

Who is the moustachioed mulletted bogan pretending to be Matt Henry?

Gunner

9.5 rpo

The way I saw WI destroy us in the last 10 the other night, I’ll be happy when that number reaches 15…

booboo

Catch him!

And out.

Out of that dark

Reminds me of Iain O’Brien with those locks, he just needs the zinc across the nose.

booboo

And yes . Rrpo makes sense to me as a measure

Gunner

The fuck happened there, Mr Bracewell?

These Windies batters can hit it bloody high!!!

Gunner

Wow, a yorker.

Don’t see many of them nowadays

Looked like AllBlack level incompetence

MN5

Fucken hell ??? Where's the crowd gone ? everyone starting work early tomorrow ?

Gunner

We’re going to sleep in the field, another catch goes down.

booboo

Henry needs a shave and a haircut

booboo

Mrs Boo convinced WI win from here ...

She's always a pessimist

Chris B.

This is hand though, isn't it?

12 runs an over.

booboo

Don't bowl wides idiot
