lol Latham away from home is so bad
Not really 6 test 100s and 12 50s away from home better than a lot of Nz Batsmen
2 of those in Zimbabwe and t also the neutral UAE,2, remaining in Pak and SL, for me Zim should not even count. As @African-Monkey says nothing in decent opposition countries
still better than others have done and played in the same countries toughest job in cricket opening the batting.
Absolutely.
Facing the new ball, fuck all chances of not outs to boost the average…….
That’s why I admire Hayden, Cook and Sehwag as genuine modern greats for the records they have.
Gooch, Greenidge, Haynes etc the generation before.
Yep 100%

Although he is one of NZs best in that position, I Don’t debate that by the way, I would hardly compare him to those guys. Those guys had results in most countries. Latham just doesn’t have that complete mental fortitude in my mind and goes missing on tours when we really need him.
Still better than me on my couch though

A very good point. I’d back Chris Martin to carve up with the bat at beach cricket better than I could too.

At some stage going to have to play some shots here
balance starts to shift as the ball ages a bit. It's going to lose its shine, and perhaps get some moisture in the outfield.
Weather the storm - mostly done!
now start scoring runs. -

I can hit a long ball off shit bowlers. Possibly 50/50 then. I’ll back myself.

Doesn’t matter, they all count right now, as long as he doesn’t give his wicket away

Oh yeah, I'm not complaining!

TBF he did well to get the bat on that, it moved a long way. Just need to see off this Bumrah spell

He misses that he's out LBW

Great opportunity for Young here, would be great for him right here

These two have bowled very well.
The ball that got Latham out - in combination with the ball before - was an absolute jaffa that would get most players out 2nd ball of an innings.
I feel that we just need to hang in for another 5 overs and it will get a lot easier.

Bumrah needs a break. Please

Shastri says he'll probably go for 7 or 8 overs
