That was like watching ODI batting last night, great stuff !
Obviously NZ are showing a ton of respect for Hughes by not bowling any bouncers, this pitch has a bit more pace than the other two, but by not bowling bouncers on these slow piches it’s allowed us to apply quite a bit more pressure on Pakistan & Craig has cashed in on it… outstanding controlled aggression by McCullum, poor bowling by Pakistan though, overdone the bouncers, especially on these sort of wickets, which McCullum is taking full advantage of, hope it continues & they don’t wake up by bowling fuller & straighter.
With them winning the toss looked like they were going to get 500 plus, now we’re in an excellent position to put the squeeze on them.
