timaru Feb 2016 11:16am, 21 Feb 2016 432 posts	0 timaru Its heading for a draw here, mccullumn got a few records yesterday including nearly hitting me with one of his sixes. Aparently the fastest 100 in test cricket! It was funny after the no ball, as the aussie bowler came the boundary they were all singing 'no ball, only one no ball' 10 mins later the police turned up and all the 'banter' ended. a bit hot though, 33 apparently and just around 430 pm we had an earthquake, exciting times in Christchurch.
Badger Feb 2016 2:56pm, 21 Feb 2016 6,939 posts	0 Badger Utterly spineless performance by the T20 side here. Decent attempt by Morgan, Butter and Root. SA look set to win by ten wickets with about 8 overs to spare. Great job by the women's team this morning, though.

Scorge Feb 2016 8:49pm, 21 Feb 2016 174 posts	0 Scorge mid 90's-esque collapse this afternoon, ouch. would love to see SA stick with ABDV/amla opening at the worlds.

Wriggling Snake Feb 2016 11:17am, 22 Feb 2016 11,159 posts	0 Wriggling Snake I wouldn't say mid 90s collapse myself, always liable to happen in T20, you have to keep getting runs, no two ways about it, in the short format it can all go wrong very quickly, it is a bastardization of cricket, os that sort of thing can happen.
Crash Hamster Feb 2016 12:17pm, 22 Feb 2016 713 posts	0 Crash Hamster To be fair, Morgan was going well and unlucky to be run out backing up... but otherwise, we were woeful. As Wrigglers says, it can happen at T20, it's not proper cricket...
