    Virat Kohli Retires from Test Cricket

    Really did feel like a career of 3 acts: 2011-2015: showed flashes of his immense potential but not really a great player yet 2016 - 2019: an absolute monster of a batsman who gave Smith a serious run for his money as the best in the world. 2020 - 2025: a stunningly protracted decline in run...

    Who would be your ideal Big Three

    The best part of this would be reading about Oceania winning every game.

    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    The absence of IPL participants, and the timing should hopefully enable it to be a bit less of a farce than the old Champion's league.

    *Official* Bangladesh A v New Zealand A

    Given that the full NZ white ball side seems to pretty much only play in ICC tournaments these days, and the regular home summer first XI is often pretty close to a first choice NZ A side, probably fair to say this is more of an NZ development XI, but a proper one stacked with guys the NZC is...

    *Official* Bangladesh A v New Zealand A

    Tbf, his plunket shield numbers this season (566 @ 27 and 18 @30) make it look like he's going the bowling all-rounder route in all formats.

    He would've smashed him if it was a sparring session.

    Yeah, Bakole very lucky to sneak away with the draw. While I thought he clearly won 4 rounds, he also very clearly lost the other 6. Re his weight, I'm not surprised he came in at 299 after being 310 a couple of months ago. The big problem was ever letting himself blow up to that size in the...

    Yeah, Southee clearly learned a hell of a lot about bowling over his 17 year test career. Not sure how good a coach he is at this stage, but not surprised he's making a career move in that direction.

    Sears also getting a county gig. Here's hoping he can stay fit and get some miles into his legs.

    Fisher hasn't played since the later stages of the super smash so I' guessing he's injured again.

    *Official* Pro-Wrestling Thread II

    Decided to check out WM after watching Super Eyepath Wolf's brilliant recent video essay on the careers of Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes (definitely check it out if you haven't seen it, and don't let the 2 hr 40m run time intimidate you, it's awesome). Eh, it was alright I guess.

    I'm really not sure what the point of a dedicated test coach would be, given we only play 6 or 7 tests a year on average.

    Never has a home summer left one feeling more like international cricket is the minor leagues, and serves solely as a vehicle for the identification of talent for franchise cricket.

    "The exact nature of Walter's involvement will largely depend on whether Stead wants to continue in the role, as he remains New Zealand's first choice for head coach and whether he wants to continue coaching the national side in all formats. " Urrrrrgghhhhh...
