*Official* New Zealand in England 2021

Does Doull not know the ball can't touch the grass even if it's in your hand? Eg. Jamieson at home this season.

No, he's always been terrible on this rule. In fact if I make myself imagine horrible commentary for a dropped catch in this manner I automatically imagine Doull.

That looked pretty out to me. Ball could've touched the ground even though his fingers were underneath it. I still think that's out though?

 

[Athlai]

Doull is 1 part good commentator. 2 parts bad commentator. There is no part of him that is just ordinary IMO. Either hes saying interesting good things or you want him to shut his stupid face.

was literally about to say similar. sometimes he's great, but mostly he's cringe. very occasionally he's denying climate change on live tv.

 

[The Hutt Rec]

When he analyses bowlers' actions and gameplans it's definitely usually worth listening to.

The rest I'd rather not have to endure.

Honestly I have given up on that rule, I see them give those out even if a piece of the ball is touching the ground. I just wait for the result and shrug my shoulders

You covered that.

And I'm not going to explain where. Fight!

also worth noting simon doull has always been very loyal to his patrons outside nz

 

[honestbharani]

Its amazing how many of the current commentators are good when analyzing the game during the breaks or in between sessions etc. and yet suck at play by play.

Haha what is it with New Zealand commentators and right-wing politics? Isn't Mark Richardson a talk radio shock jock?

Anyway, it's crazy to think Conway didn't work out in South Africa. At least Hussey would've gotten game many years before he did for any other sides. Conway was averaging like 20 in proper FC cricket before heading to New Zealand. Yet is probably the game's best left-hander.

 

[wpdavid]

It's all looking far too easy now.

 

[morgieb]

Ooof that's a bad drop. Came quick but have to take those at this level.

 

[Arachnodouche]

Has Stone lost a few pounds recently? Remember him looking burlier/scruffier.

What a sitter!

 

[nzfan]

That was an easy grab. Very lucky young, now go on and get a big one son

 

[Uppercut]

Yeah really bad one, they don't come much easier at slip.
