He looks a bit like like SVG honestly

who?

McPeake on the other hand is the least aesthetic cricketer of all time. Looks like a bloke who learned to bowl hurling rocks around a quarry.

He's mediocre at best. Hasn't really ever got any better. I'm staggered he's still selected tbh. He seems to be selected more frequently in T20s than ever, yet his stats are atrocious. I don't get it.

who?

I'm guessing he means Shane van Gisbergen.

Cricket: Top run scorer keeps his eye on the ball

The country's top run scorer in first-class cricket this season says he is beginning to home in on "the formula he wants" following a dominant start to the summer with the bat.

Pandey has been such a good signing for Canterbury.

 

[straw man]

For unaesthetic bowling actions I have J Sussex and W Clark - both step to offside with their front leg and then push the ball back the other direction towards the stumps. More straight lines pls.

Are they still talking about his pants every time he bowls?

What's wrong with his pants?

I played against a guy in club cricket who had no arse, and had to run in holding the elastic up

 

[Prince EWS]

What's wrong with his pants?

He seemingly likes them a bit shorter than the average player and they kept talking about the McPeake Pants every ****ing SS game he played last season.

 

[ataraxia]

I don't agree with the talk about McPeake's pants, but I do agree, tbf, that McPeake's pants.

Will be annoying if Jacobs isn't available for Auckland's game today because of being part of the NZ/SL series squads.

He is playing. As are Latham and O'Rourke, despite them being in the ODIs that start in Wellington on the 5th. They have been flexible.

That’s a ridiculous Canterbury bowling lineup

 

[straw man]

O'Rourke and Jamieson opening with Shipley first change - fitness permitting could be a dream NZ boring attack.

Oh yeah and Gus McKenzie too.......

 

[_Ed_]

Guptill bringing back some lovely memories with those shots.

 

[anonymouskefe]

Shipleys action to me looks like a taller foulkes

attack of the gigachads

edit: **** missed the chance to make an Attack on Titan joke

 

[Bahnz]

Yeah Gup! Take this lanky fetus to school!

 

[wellAlbidarned]

haha that shot looked so much like guptill it took a few minutes to register with everyone that it was o'donnell

 

[ataraxia]

Auckland playing about 4 bowlers opposite Canterbury's 7 is an excellent troll.

We might get the five-peat for Canterbury later in the competition, with Henry and Foulkes joining the Fulton-coached two-metre club. If that eventuates I can only hope they play Gus McKenzie, purveyor of yorkers, too.
