Worse than Bracewell? At least Boult has a good yorker.

So who would you take if you had to choose between Nicol and Ontong?

Oh well. Bring on the tests.

If the SA selectors pick Ontong in the Test team based on a 40 scored against NZ in a T20 then they're a bigger bunch of morons than the NZ selectors and they deserve all they get.
You always need a comic relief character. He's the Jar Jar Binks of the NZ team.

I hate having Boult and Bracewell in the T20 squad. They should be concentrating on their Test bowling, not picking up bad T20 habits.

Well, thank god that's over. A win is a win, but at least the real stuff can start boys. Was happy with all the debutantes, can't wait for de Kock to develop as a player and work him into the Test team, the dude only made 2 this game, but he just looks so classy imho. Think we would of done a lot better at the last T20 WC with this lot, with the additions of AB, JP and Dale. Still think Levi has a role to play in the squad, but he needs to sort his crap out, if he does, he can be a very good player.
And fair play to N.Z, they did O.k. Brendon Mccullum needs to really stand up as a player, with such a young middle order, he needed to pull off a Guptill. I thought Neesham looked pretty classy for the small time he was in there. Hira bowled a lot better than I thought he would, and troubled our openers. Also don't think Bracewell is a T20 player yet, he just bowles pies.
And now the real cricket begins.....

Top post.
Just needs a disparaging remark about Hesson's appearance and it would have been perfect.

yup.
If I were McCullum and had great ambitions to become a captain, I still wouldn't have let the coach and the board have their way and replace Taylor and put me in charge instead because it would have been of serious detriment to the team in general and to my relationship with Taylor, who is the easily the best batsman.
Such a egoistic selfish ****

You, sir, have earned the right to be aggressive.
