    England in New Zealand 28 Nov-18 Dec 2024 - 3 Tests

    Bond in commentary naively wondering how England will juggle bowlers until the second new ball. As if England can bowl 80 overs in a day.

    Yay, I'm wrong. Just had the right sound.

    Do Cantabrians hate trees and love skin cancer? Why they no plant trees at top of that embankment? If they'd planted exotics they'd be half mature already.

    Carse"s bowling action is a Kerry Walmsley clone. Which was one of my favorites, so I like him.

    Only been watching since lunch, am quite surprised at how visually brown the pitch is,

    2024–25 NZ domestic season

    Napier looking like a 4 day old pitch already. CD with 2 good spinners. If it lasts long enough. Abbas bowled by a ground grubber on Day 1.

    Severin has been looking in poor nick this season.

    2024–25 NZ domestic season

    Neither ND or Otago have a spinner in their 11 for this round, at Seddon Park. That is a bit strange.

    England in New Zealand 28 Nov-18 Dec 2024 - 3 Tests

    I mentioned earlier how bad the 2 potential debutants FC record is on Hagley. But even O'Rourke, for whom Christchurch has been his home town since finishing school. Has his worst FC records at the 3 Canterbury venues; Hagley, Lincoln, Rangiora. Where he averages 30 to 31 in each venue...

    A feel like bazball England are a bad match up for NZ. Maybe I'm just gambhiring .... But honestly. A Hagley pitch dried by the heatwave and strong winds turning into batting paradise, NZ medium pacers, Brook and co. It scares me I have to admit.

    I guess you could say McCullum himself was initially an 'attributes pick' at international level. He was picked to play ODI cricket for NZ in the Australian tri-series with this sort of List A record (because he scored a run-a-ball maiden century 1 month before that ODI debut in a different...

    Yes. Shell Trophy bowling averages in circa 1989 to 1993 were like what Sheffield Shield bowling averages are at the moment.

    Finished at age 28. Only played 4 seasons. Those last 2 seasons were presumably injury effected.

    Yeah. I was thinking that last year when his son got called up. I was wondering if O’Rourke senior was the last ever 'unlucky not to be a blackcap' (because that is impossible now, with 3 formats and JAM). He did 80% of his work in just 2 season (1989/90 and 1990/91). In the winter of 1990 his...

    It is interesting that neither of the NZ potential seamer debutants have a very good FC bowling record at Hagley Oval. Duffy: 51 from 7 games. Smith:145 from 3 games For Smith there may be an element of sample size as he dominated an away game v Canterbury once, but was at Rangiora rather...

    Official Jasprit Bumrah fanboying thread

    There will always be a Pakistan sized asterisk against Bumrah's record. Skipped the roadiest venues of his era. What a fraud. Edit. Actually, thought I better actually statsguru this before actually posting. And turns out Sri Lanka is roadier than even Pakistan (since his 2018 debut). And he's...
