    Better opener : Gavaskar vs Cook

    Tim McIntosh was pretty good.

    Troy Johnson I guess.

    2024–25 NZ domestic season

    Philippe Boissevain playing for Canterbury A's an interesting development. Also some injury to Ken McClure? Retired in the first dig, didn't bat 2nd.

    NZ Domestic Selector 24/25

    I don't like it, and it seems so much more of a conservative pick than mine so far, that it's hard to say... Matt Bacon. Curtis Heaphy Nick Greenwood Dale Phillips Mark Chapman Michael Schlanders Jock McKenzie Nathan Smith Big Gus McKenzie Matt Bacon Will O'Rourke @Fuller Pilch

    *Official* New Zealand tour of India 2024

    This series has genuinely piqued the interest of the cricket layman. There's been plenty of discussions at work about it - and not just with the cricket aficionados (though I've also discovered a couple of fellow travellers who I had no idea were cricket fans!).

    Kohli Test Average

    How long did that take you? Sounds interesting.

    Greatest XI for your County/State

    That’s a damn fine looking team.

    Biggest test series upset of all time

    I can understand that view. Something about this recently completed series missed something of the BG win. NZ somehow won 3-0 despite dropping a decent number of catches and being largely inept with their reviews. The win is astonishing, but perhaps at times the quality was a little questionable.

    Try and aim for a reasonably balanced line up and have Greenwood as opener. Curtis Heaphy Nick Greenwood Dale Phillips Mark Chapman Jock McKenzie Nathan Smith Big Gus McKenzie Will O'Rourke

    2024–25 NZ domestic season

    Nerves of steel from Big Gus in that final over. Only conceding 3 runs when defending 6. What a legend.

    NZ Domestic Selector 24/25

    Banking on Jock McKenzie having a breakout season. So I’ll pick him to pair with Big Gus. I think that might be Bahnz up again?

    Biggest test series upset of all time

    My point was that back in 2005, you're more likely to find legitimate variability away from the Betfair market at the time. Which is parallel to the point you were making. I guess in the context of Molehill's post, just because Betfair was at 5/1, that doesn't invalidate that a bookmaker could...

    Biggest test series upset of all time

    Yeah, we were doing that even back then, but the bookies generally hated doing it as they took some umbrage about management perceptions of the prices they'd set themselves or had got themselves into a place they'd created an exposure. Fascinating business tbh, but really fine margins in a lot...

    Rabada vs Williamson

    Stop taking my post seriously. Oy veh! It was clearly a parody of the logic deployed in recent Williamson threads to make him sound worse than he objectively is. In this case, similarly selective use of statistics to make Rabada sound objectively worse than he is (without an active comparison...
