**Official** New Zealand in Australia

I love ND

Hope Williamson goes well in the State Shield final.

How do you guys reckon Southee will go in Australia? When Gayle decided to smash him he looked rather pedestrian. Fortunately Australia doesnt have anywhere near as destructively awesome as Gayle.

Provided Warner survives Mills (which he shouldn't) I can see Southee getting some tap.

You can tell he wasn't around in the days of Leslie, the really wierd Vettori hating but ND biased domestic troll.

 

[Athlai]

Those were horrible horrible times to try and follow domestic cricket.

I wouldnt back Warner to survive anyone tbh. The plan should be to set someone at deep mid-wicket and bowl a foot outside off stump. From what i've seen he only really has one hitting area and if he isn't scoring, that is also his bail out option.

Ponting can be pretty brutal at times, Southee could be on the receiving end of that.

Yes, perhaps. Though i'd much prefer him to be bowling to Ponting than Gayle.

Will Oram & Styris be fit for Ind ODIs???

Styris should be, though he might not be picked. No idea about Oram, odds are he'll make a return but get injured again before then.

It only starts an hour later, 4:30 GMT.

Ahh, true.
Brain fart.

So it looks like I wont be doing much study on Sunday afternoon.

Apparently there's a headline in an Aussie paper that says "Even this useless mob think they can beat us".

LESS than 24 hours after South Africa wrapped up the one-day series, one of international cricket's worst sides has vowed to continue Australia's nightmare summer...

Even New Zealand cricket team say they can beat us | The Daily Telegraph

It sounds like The Daily Telegraph is the troll of the newspaper world.

 

[_Ed_]

Lovely.

 

[Jono]

That's a pathetic headline.

What are NZ supposed to say anyway "yeah nah we can't win, but we'll get close"

Yeah it's ****ing rubbish, it annoys the **** out of me when people from overseas read the Tele (and Herald Sun, FTR) websites and have cracks at everyone from Australia. They have Rebecca Wilson writing sport columns ffs!
