The hell is up with ferguson? gettin smashed by ireland scotland and now looking so toothless here. The trademark pace isn't there and neither is the direction. Really need this guy to get it together. Expecting him to be the leader of the attack in Aus.

Look, I obviously absolutely love the guy but I’m starting to get a little bit over the whole Kane Williamson always injured thing. What’s going on here, is he just insanely injury prone, not putting in the fitness work etc.

You can already start to see some of the cricketing public here in NZ starting to turn on him in regards to always being fit for the IPL but consistently missing test matches and limited overs games for NZ.

He really isn’t needed in the 20/20 team, just drop him from that allow him to rest up for everything else. His body is obviously not ageing as well as it should be
It's been quite disappointing Kane missing out every possible series. Bit of a bad luck he missed a test vs England due to covid but this frequent forced break is not helping him find any rhythm in batting. Here's hoping we are yet to see his best. The man is a delight to watch but it's been ages since he's found that rhythm to his batting. The overdose of t20s might be truly messing his batting up. Hard to find that confidence and balance when you are not playing frequently enough.

Good knock by Mayers and he'snot done yet. He's pumping it... to be honest it's not a bad thing for us, at least our guys will bat positively and we will truly know if we can handle the pressure of chasing a big score without Kane and Taylor in the side. This is our full side sans Kane and Kyle.

Shai scored about 30 runs too few for the amount of balls he faced there. It was like going back to the start of his career. I hope he doesn't repeat that often, he'll look a little silly if this is a high scoring game.

And Mayers goes... that's a bit strange. Looks like he was too happy with the hundred. He's well settled and there is still 15 overs to go and he goes for it. Not sure if that was right. High chances we will get a chance to come back in hard now. This is what puzzles me about West Indies batting, they will be going so well but then they just lose it.

Just tuned in 20 mins ago and the first score I see is 173/0. Thanks for waiting Black caps but really wasn't necessary.
