    New Zealand doom and gloom thread

    Yeah he was old school but tbf to him, he was a pretty successful coach. The second time he did it, he took over a really bad team from Geoff Howarth, who was drunk most of the time.

    That series was epic. We got stuffed in the first two games, came back in game 3 at the Basin (I still clearly remember Mark Waugh being bowled early by Danny Morrison), the Jeff Wilson game 4 chasing a then-massive 250, and finally losing the last by a whisker with Gavin Larsen and Chris...

    Ok, let's accept that Mitchell didn't manage to say exactly how he felt about the loss. He was still using words and phrases that he hears every day in the dressing room. Those are the team's words. That's how they collectively think. And it's obvious to everyone watching and listening. Henry...

    It's precisely this attitude that has killed my life-long passion for cricket. I had been wavering for a long time, but it was during the 2nd test against South Africa in 2022 that I had finally had enough. We'd dominated the first test. It wasn't a particularly good SA side. I was looking...

    Imagine if Trent Boult still played tests, instead of adding to his collection of ivory backscratchers.

    Just a third man to both would be great at this point

    Man, I never get tired of Steve Smith's "fund manager's kid who just found out he can't borrow the BMW tonight" face

    At least they aren't bowling at the likes of Allan Border and David Boon then.

    Y'know, it's a shame we don't have anything on our whites to acknowledge our WTC win.

    There is just nothing to like about Scott Kuggeleijn. He bowls like a windsock, his batting stance is ugly, he's got a face like an SS stormtrooper and even his name is an upended scrabble board. Plus he's a *** pest and he's bad at cricket.
