    Namibia v New Zealand (THIS WILL BE A FUN GAME) at the Magnificent Sharjah Cricket Stadium-- 11/5 Friday (D), Match #36, Group 2

    CI says NZ have failed to overtake AfG's NRR. Needed to restrict NAM to 94 to achieve that. Should NZ be worried ?

    India v New Zealand (WTC FINAL, replay-- NAHHHHH) at the Ring of Fire, Dubai, 10/31 Sunday (N)-- Match #28, Group 2

    My game summary NZ - Congrats to my fav team for coming back with a strong win. P.S. - Allowing Southee to bowl 20th was again a suicidal move, you got lucky yesterday. Won't get lucky every day. Real pigheadedness in insisting that he is a death bowler. India - All IPL play made Jack...

    West Indies v Bangladesh at the Magnificent Sharjah Cricket Stadium, WIN OR GO HOME-- 23rd Match, 10/29 Friday (D)

    And thus falls the "gifted", "talented" Hetmyer... once again. :D :D

    Pakistan vs New Zealand at Sharjah: Matchday thread; Tue 26/10 Late Game

    Feeling sad as a Kiwi supporter but Pakistan have been exceptional. If they carry on this performance into 2 more matches, will have to use a word never associated with them, for them - Consistent. :D

    South Africa vs West Indies at Dubai: Matchday thread; Early Game Tue 26/10

    Hmm.. you seem to make lot of interpretations on your own. Your first assumption was that I don't want cricket to expand. Now you have come up with "WI should be stripped of international status". Secondly, I am entitled to my opinion just as you are. So, if we go by your argument (although I...

    South Africa vs West Indies at Dubai: Matchday thread; Early Game Tue 26/10

    You seem eager to construct a strawman argument here. I didn't say "teams" , I said West Indies. I am all for the game expanding. That is why I whole-heartedly want ICC to pay attention to countries like Kenya, Zim and the other associate nations.

    South Africa vs West Indies at Dubai: Matchday thread; Early Game Tue 26/10

    You chose to focus only on part of what I wrote. Ignored the 25 plus years bit. But to each his own.

    Pakistan vs New Zealand at Sharjah: Matchday thread; Tue 26/10 Late Game

    Best of luck Kiwis and please don't select Southee. Hope to see a Kohliesque innings or even better from KW.

    It was indeed a clinical innings.

    South Africa vs West Indies at Dubai: Matchday thread; Early Game Tue 26/10

    As I have asked elsewhere - 'Waste' Indies, why do you bother to play? WI should stop playing International cricket. They are good for IPL like showbiz but don't have cricketing acumen for the International stage in any format. This is not a knee-jerk reaction but having followed the Windies...

    Afghanistan v Scotland at Sharjah: Matchday Thread; Mon 25/10

    Absolutely wild thought... Will AFG win the t20 world cup?

    Of all the warmups played, WI seemed to be the least interested and bothered. Great match between Pak & SAF. Brilliant knock from RVD.

    I would cut them some slack there because NZ obviously don't have sub-continent level of spinners. They are doing their best with whoever they have got.

    Looks like too much of partying & less of defending to me. :D:DBut best of luck all the same. :)

    Notes on the games I have seen 1. Dear Kane Williamson & selectors Persistence has its own rewards but persisting with Southee & Jamieson as death bowlers will result in your team's premature death in the tournament. 2. Getting a bit ahead of myself - India taking the right steps to win...

    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    If we take the statistical route, his highest ICC ranks as a t20I bowler have come in since 2019 (10th) , 2020(7th) 2021 ( 6th - best ever) and now sitting on 10th again as of date. However, with my limited knowledge as a cricket spectator and that too not being a NZlander, dare I say that in...

    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    Why Tim Southee..why? Despite his stature in Test cricket, I don't get it why NZ persist with him in t20s. Over the last few years, that I have seen of him, he can't bowl at the death , consistently gets hammered and these things were on show again in yesterday's warmup match against Australia...

    Official NZ in Bangladesh (5 T20s)

    Btw, just because I am from India please do not assume that my favourite team is also the Indian cricket team. My favourite during my growing years used to be West Indies but I gave up on them a few years ago. I don't have any hopes for them. My current favourite since the last few years is the...
