Good come back from Australia. When I fell asleep it looked all over at none 100+ and them doing it easily. They went from 0/115 to all out 247 losing 10/125. Seems like a bit of a trend in the top order doing very well before big collapses.

I do question NZ when they will have to actually chase down a good score, ie. 340+. IMO they have a lot of reliance on either their bowling attack to keep the opposition to below 300 or on Guptil chasing down quickly.
I don't think Williamson really has another gear like Kohli, Smith and Root who also anchor the innings for their countries. Whilst they can hold it all together for their countries, they have the ability to score at a run a ball or more, I'm not sure Williamson really does.
Midsy said:Thought Maxwell was pretty disrespectful to Khawaja after the runout. You don’t stand in the middle of the pitch staring at your partner with a WTF arm raise. Runouts happen, and while it was probably Khawaja’s fault, you save the discussions for the changing room.
Maxwell and his ego again.
MD Jazz said:I agree in a way but I think He was shocked by Khawaja actions, he runs half way and then stops.
Who has the better ability to score quickly?
Khwaja was lucky to get the runs he did, he won’t make any against the better sides pace attacks.
Midsy said:He was fully entitled to be shocked and annoyed at Khawaja, but you simply don’t react in such a manner. You bite your tongue and wait for an appropriate time.
MD Jazz said:Also you do know it was Khwaja”s call and he called it? It’s basically tip and run at that stage.

Still didn’t like Maxwell’s reaction though.
