On that subject, here's Buck: "Re: Caleb and Jamieson opening the bowling, I think it's more to do with the prodigious movement O'Rourke tends to generate both swing and seam, and giving him a slightly more worn ball to help him maintain control."

New Zealand comfortably have the tallest set of bowlers in terms of release position in this competition. Mitchell Santner has the highest release position among the 48 bowlers on show so far, followed by Kyle Jamieson. Michael Bracewell and Will O'Rourke are the two other New Zealanders in top seven, the latter and Jamieson being the only quicks in this list.

"Any update on Mitchell's condition? Is it an injury or something else?" Sounds like some sort of gastro issue, Shane. Pindi belly

"A highly responsible innings is expected from Hridoy, just like his previous knock," whispers Madhavan. "BAN is desperate for a win." No pressure, son
