Who would you rather have come in at No. 6 for your team with 15 overs to go?

So we build the weapons for the T-Rex after studying its mind, and then giving its the tools, weapons and resources to defeat us that the USA would not even give to members of its own species?

And then after going to war with us, we continue to supply it fuel and ammunition? No. First winter and that bad boy is extinct again.

It will not hand the blitzkreig of drones as it tries top fly around in its jumbo sized apache helicopter.

Its hard to get shiyat down without opposing thumbs.

It typically happens in something like the following manner:

Permabanning for Forum Atmosphere is a thing omg.

Good stuff

So, he was Blocky right?

I don't think he was. Other people do. We don't have any real evidence either way. But if there's a big debate over whether you're the same guy who got permabanned for forum atmosphere reasons, it's fair to say you probably should be too.

I didn't actually think of your situation when I posted that, but that's a good point really.

My favourite part was where kiwivictor said Bevan wouldn't get in the New Zealand side.

Utterly laughable.

Why would we want Bevan consuming late innings deliveries when we have Anderson, Ronchi, Santner, Southee to hit out with?

Oh dear.

Only about four years too late to adopt this attitude, quick off the mark as ever

 

[kiwiviktor81]

What's crazy is that I have never suggested even once that Bevan was anything less than an absolutely superb player for his time and place.

Yeah you're right I'm going to start picking Santner in my ATG ODI XIs instead from now on

our mistake, how silly of bevan to bat in the way that made him the best for his team at that time.

kane williamson isn't a world class odi batsman because he's not batting in the way they bat in 2050

 

[marc71178]

What's crazy is that you don't think Bevan would even get a spot in the current NZ team.

 

[Flem274*]

or many other teams. he's pretty much saying the aussie icing of maxwell, forkers, mitchell marsh etc is better as well

finch, warner, smith, bevan, bailey, maxwell, forkers, wade etc

baz, gup, kane, ross, bevan, candy cannon, ronchi etc

yes please

 

[kiwiviktor81]

He simply wouldn't fit the team balance. There's no room for a late innings batsman striking at 72, or anywhere near that, in the current Black Caps team.

Let's say we didn't have Guptill, Williamson and Taylor at the top. Replace them with some spuds or mediocre players. Then I would love to have Bevan beacuse he'd be coming in in the 20th over a lot and then I don't care about strike rate.

I'd like to see a stat on when the Black Caps' 3rd wicket falls on average at the moment. If it's after the 35th over I maintain there would be no room for Bevan in the current BCs side.

It's better to go 5/100 in the final 10 than 0/80.

Lol then replace Williamson or Taylor with Bevan and bat him at 3 or 4 because he'd be better than both of them put together
