*Official* 2024 South Africa tour of New Zealand: 2 tests

Phillips is such a weird unit, worth the price of admission just watching him do his thing.

lol this is a new commentary low

 

[straw man]

That wasn't really what I meant by 'Petersen should play some shots'. There were some bad balls could've been hit.

Idk i quite enjoy guest commentators, but they're only as good as the people asking them questions and on this situation it's pretty average.

Guests on cricket comms always seemed a treat when listening to the ABC, for instance.

I think Russell Howard may have been a bit drunk

Was mostly just how he talked right over the fall of the wicket. It felt like he hadn’t been briefed at all on what to do and they genuinely just found him half pissed on the embankment.

 

[thierry henry]

South Africa seemed comfortable enough against the spin aside from those two slogs for two wickets. I guess (supposedly) you have to get some runs eventually.

Santa 3/33 @SillyCowCorner1

I hope they bat again just so all the Latham downhill skiing haters can be infuriated

Wow. That innings by Paterson was one of the most inept looking innings I've seen at Test level since Chris Martin's pomp. Truly awful.

And remarkably he started the innings with a test average of 43

They called it village standard on the radio.

Open with Phillips and Mitchell and let the boys go mad

 

[thierry henry]

tbf to Paterson at one point he appeared to attempt to pull a yorker, but I think it was actually just his version of a Marnus-style leave

Yeah, not really seen many people play a completely different line and timing to the delivery in front of them for 4 deliveries in an innings that lasted 6.

Players who didn't get a start bat first imo

Do we think Tom Latham will survive the summer without his average dipping below 40?

Good chance to get 100* here, Latham's at the top of the mountain with the skis on and the powder is looking fresh.

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

Is there uphill skiing? Is the downhill part redundant?

 

[straw man]

There's certainly cross country in which gravity helps less

There goes our next test captain.
