Never in doubt
Wheeew. We snuck of jail there.
Good comeback in the 2nd half of that over from Jamieson, but by Christ we should have never been in that position.

Jamieson snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Did we really have no one else to bowl?!
he seems so unsuited for t20
his figures are terrible, his bulk and size dont go well as a fielder as we saw on 1 occasion
on top of that hes terribly injury prone, why do they keep risking him?
NZ needs to pick more T20 specialists rather than hope that the likes of Jamieson, Conway and Ravindra perform in a format less suited to their skills.
Yup that’s why we aren’t competing as well as the other teams. The bulk of their selections are t20 specialists.
We have a few good ones already but we need to identify more and give them a decent chance
Given the workloads and often injury issues, it makes fuck all sense picking guys like Henry, jamieson etc in all 3 formats

Yep there is a lot resting on those two as guys who are massively important in the longest form of the game. I'd much rather the shits and giggles type bowlers make up the T20 squad.
Maybe they feel Jamieson needs game time ? and that with his height and awkwardness he should be more economical ?
Matt Henry is in the fortunate ( or unfortunate ) position of being bloody good at all three forms of the game.
Just watched the first over from Nelson and there is something not quite right seeing the Windies opening with a left arm off spinner.

Bracewell has been an absolute passenger this series so far. He needs a big one.
Tough to go off a run out.

Ah well, double figures is progress and he has a chance to have a bowl too.

Black Caps falling apart here after being on target for a decent total.
Getting worserer.

We'll be 20 behind where we should be
Yep, a flurry of wickets.
Windies bowling well.
The moment I remembered this was on I started watching and the BCs lost 31-6. The good news is I have to go to the tip and to Bunnings so will miss watching the Windies bat.
We got this.
52 from 23 needed. 2 wickets in hand. We should nab this.
As I type Jamieson serves a nice pie for Springer to hit for four.
@booboo said in West Indies tour of NZ:
And the good news is it's either Jamieson or Neesh to bowl the last
Jamieson
@MN5 said in West Indies tour of NZ:
Shepherd facing. I have to say this series has gotten me into T20 more. Great fun.
Nah. It's like watching the All Blacks fritter away a lead.

Jamieson dedicating this last over to @Virgil
10 needed from two balls.
You must be behind a bit
