***Official*** West Indies in New Zealand 2013/14

More concerning that Wagner's action on that freeze-frame is it showing he's bowling back foot no balls and not being called for them.

How is this batting performance Sammy's fault?

It isn't..but if the "captain" can't inspire his troops after the embarrassments we've had lately when exactly is he gonna inspire them? he also ran his mouth off to the press afer the first test and then went on to get two ducks.

Read that as dicks at first. Time for some sleep.

Having said that, yes go get some sleep before SA vs. India

Haha, I may sleep at odd hours but I still only get about four hours a day.

Baby steps.... Tbh I'll be cracking out the champagne if I wake up tomorrow morning and see they managed to bat out the day! That's how low our batting has sunk,

WindieWeathers made a good point earlier, these batting collapses and awful technical displays have been happening ever since Toby Radford left. Our batting was definitely on the up whilst he was around. Might be just a coincidence, but I doubt it somehow.

Pretty disappointing to see Latham left out for Munro after Latham actually played a decent knock.

 

[Bahnz]

Ryder, Guptill, KW, Taylor, McCullum, Anderson, Ronchi, NcCullum, Mills, Southee, one of Neesham, Mitch or Milne

Looks a pretty good side.

 

[Kippax]

Southee rested or injured?

 

[Flem274*]

Would really like NZ to get them out for under 200. This partnership is bedding in too well for my liking.

Ryder named to make Black Caps return in ODIs | Stuff.co.nz

Adam Milne gets his chance in the squad with senior paceman Tim Southee set to miss the first two ODIs to have treatment on a big toe injury.

Cricket being a sport of stats it is interesting to see the most runs scored by a Kiwi batsman in a calendar year is 871 by J R Reid in 1965. All this time I thought it was 820 by Martin Crowe in 1985. So back on point, I think it will be difficult for Taylor to break Reid's record as he requires a further 139 runs from two innings.

Southee rested or injured?

According to Bruce Edgar on the telly, he is having minor surgery on his foot and will be out for two games.

 

[straw man]

Sounds like a good innings from Ramdin to begin to dig WI out of trouble.
