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

    It was the overnight rain that most of the damage. Once that happened it was a struggle even with no further rain to get the ground fit for cricket. Obviously further rain meant it got called off at lunch.

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

    NZ didn't deserve any luck with the weather because of the way they batted on the 4th day. Obviously luck has nothing to do with whether you deserve it or not, but the point stands.

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

    Nate and the other cliquey dullards - go look elsewhere, this is beyond your attention span. The match had already been affected by rain, the forecast for the final day was always bad and yea it's NZ with a ground that isn't going to get properly covered or doesn't drain well - however you want...

    You do wonder how Ireland haven't started to pick him by now.

    So those people who were happy with NZ going at a shade over 2 an over in the morning session yesterday, still happy with it?

    **Official** County Cricket 2017

    Last season 15 games were rained off out of 126 group games. That's nothing like as big a deal as you're making out, also that's with the matches starting in late May. You're mainly arguing stuff about people attending matches, which as I've already said is a minor issue, but you'll see good...

    Yea that's what I thought too, missed the bat by miles.

    **Official** County Cricket 2017

    You've obviously not been on here long enough if you think I give a toss what most people think, let alone the majority of a fraction. Preaching to the choir and all that. I was around supporting T20 against the naysayers when it first arrived. I'm not going to be swayed by the naysayers now...

    **Official** County Cricket 2017

    You're looking at the tournament in comparison to itself and other County competitions. If you look at it compared to the IPL, Caribbean T20, Big Bash etc. then it falls behind massively on the global market. The attendances are decent, but that's really a minor point. The estimated value of the...

    Coverton hat-trick in the Middlesex v MCC game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QnF6DkDh-8M About -10 minutes from now.

    **Official** County Cricket 2017

    Exactly. The diehards will hate it. Most hate change by default because they're too short-sighted to see the bigger picture, they hated T20 when it first came out. The same happens in every game or sport. Sorry but the more 'casual' fans or whatever you want to call them, along with the more...

    You'd think NZ were 1-0 up the way they're playing. Atrocious.

    Hmm hoping Franklin doesn't take a wicket so he remains on a Gavin Hamilton. Although to be fair he has taken a catch.

    Duckett looked like he was hit well outside the line on the stream (you can go back and view all of the match).

    Hmm apparently some guy who's basically my new stalker is telling me to get a life. Interesting. Can't seem to see them any more though. Oh well, adiós. Can see why people moan about international week(end)s now. Bugger all on.

    Sounds like Tamim's playing for his century, Gets out a lot after milestones looking at his Test scores.

    Great straw man argument folks. I know sledger is incapable of actually addressing anything directly - basically a lite version of Donald Trump, and follows me around so he can "look at me! look at me!, what about this he said 3 weeks ago which I've stored up in the hope of bring it up even...

    *Official* English Football Season 2016-17

    What saying they need to spend more? The net spend of the two teams above them (the two Manchester clubs) is pretty much double the CDMs. The CDMs and a few others are similar and separated by a couple million per year here and there, if for instance Sanchez left then they'd rocket down the...

    Did none of the ITV 'experts' notice that the Vardy incident early in the game was a stonewall penalty? Instead we hear a load of **** about how he should try and stay on his feet?!?

    **Official** County Cricket 2017

    Yea that's my opinion too. It reminds me of the way my dad (he's 70) goes on about football in the past and saying it's no more skilful now than it was in the past. Then I watched a documentary on Nottingham Forest in the Clough era and the little fat guy (who was supposed to be one of the best...
