    *Official* 2022 New Zealand Tour of England, Ireland, Scotland & Netherlands

    Chaminda Vaas i think... 2003 World Cup?

    I mean I agree somewhat but it's absolutely farcical he's in the squad let alone the team. Below average record in all formats and coming off easily his worst season in FC, I do not understand the logic at all.

    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    If Macewell makes the WC squad, I'm burning all my jerseys. 15 months out, my WC squad is looking something like this: Guptill Allen KW Conway Latham Phillips Neesham Santner Henry Ferguson Boult CdG, Young, Sodhi, Mitchell. Probably a bit light on fast bowlers, I assume Southee makes it...

    Well played Macewell. Still don't rate him though.

    No matter how many sequels are made, they just aren't that enjoyable after awhile.

    Latham must have missed the memo about making sure Henry bowls out by the 40th over. Tickner bowling garbage for the most part. And kept getting overs after getting pumped.

    *Official* Australia tour of Sri Lanka 2022

    Reckon this match might get cancelled halfway through with all the revolts in Colombo overnight?

    SKY just confirmed they are not showing any of the Blackcaps white ball games in NZ. No word from Spark yet.

    *Official* 2022 New Zealand Tour of England, Ireland, Scotland & Netherlands

    I've offered to do it for them (I'm a uni student with a bit of down time) but haven't heard back. The two most watched sports in my household are cricket and Formula 1 so Spark is a no brainer for us. Still have SKY for rugby/league + the odd international cricket (I assume the Windies series...

    I'm more annoyed at the lack of comms from NZC, Sky and Spark about the upcoming white ball series in Ireland/Scotland/Netherlands. Have asked both to no reply.

    *Official* 2022 New Zealand Tour of England, Ireland, Scotland & Netherlands

    I had a SKY Box for years but now with a new smart TV and the Spark/SKY apps, I didn't need it anymore. Have had maybe 1 connection issue in the last 12-18 months - maybe I'm one of the lucky ones. It doesn't just work on crowd noise, but it is the main factor in terms of ranking the...

    Yeah Spark is great, and having some close colleagues who work there, sounds like execs are very happy with cricket at the moment. I hope NZC announce shortly who has the rights to the white ball games in Ireland/Scotland/Netherlands though....

    Just switching to England for a second .... with Crawley's failures - is there any possible recall for Rory Burns in Bazball era? Thought he was pretty good tbh, scored tough hundreds even if he only averaged just over 30.

    *Official* 2022 New Zealand Tour of England, Ireland, Scotland & Netherlands

    Amen to all of this. Our selectors are just brain dead. How M Bracewell is even near a test squad let alone making the starting XI is actually unbelievable, especially ahead of Ravindra/Phillips but probably more Phillips. Latham's minnow bashing has been rightfully questioned and I don't...

    Didn't think I'd ever get Twin Peaks/Blackcaps fanfic on here but I am here for it.

    they have an AI system that does their highlights based on crowd reaction. it ranks them all then puts all 3-5 in, and usually some of the others. hit a friend up who works for them and he said it's very surprising that the CdG-Stokes non-dismissal was missed. he's gonna look into it haha.

    Great news to wake up to this morning. Daryl Mitchell could literally win us a World Cup and I still wouldn't rate him. hahahaha.

    Pumped for this. Bairstow at 5 is good. Still not a fan of Mitchell at 5 for NZ.
