    The people that say that aren't exactly the most believable.

    ***Official*** Trans-Tasman Twenty20 Tri-Series

    God this summer is a shitshow. We should be balls-deep in the juiciest test series of the season, yet here we are debating bullshit while we (i.e. NZ fans) wait ten days between meaningless T20 slugfests. We're constantly fed the line that the problem with tests is lack of context, yet this...

    Not ideal, but definitely defendable. I really hope the good Tim Southee showed up today.

    Hasn't been a problem for them so far.

    Perhaps it might be due to good bowling from an attack that's at least as good as theirs. Remember they could only muster 240-odd on a faster pitch than this in Nelson.

    It's not a bad pitch, it's just obviously slow. Taylor only scored at 80 and Latham didn't get that many.

    They have to bat on the same pitch.

    Says a lot about the NZC 'brains trust' that when Southee finally gets canned, it's in the one format that he's been decent in recently. His ODI form has been complete arse since the 7-for, why not drop him from that side?

    FOR ****S SAKE Southee

    ***Official*** South Africa in New Zealand 2017

    A couple of 100s against Zimbabwe and Bangladesh inflate those numbers somewhat. I'd also argue that having 3 bits and pieces allrounders in our middle order does more harm to our balance than a specialist keeper lower down. Would like to see a young specialist like Blundell given a go. Ronchi's...

    Not convinced about Latham in the ODI side. When Guppy comes back, keep Brownlie and drop Latham imo.

    Thought he should've tried Guppy too.

    It's just a silly saying you use when someone seems to be in a rush.

    I think it's just a confidence thing, he'll improve (especially if he manages a not out in this innings). Edit: Goddammit.

    Hoping Raval will do well this innings - looking good so far. He's got some flaws, but I reckon he's worth persevering with.

    Nice to see some consistently disciplined bowling from NZ today.

    There are few finer sights than a ripping Trent Boult yorker.
