awesome postIt's because Chops is the one kid we've seen at a really bad inner-city school who's actually trying, effectively. By all rights he should be compulsively hooking by now, but instead he keeps taking the hits in games that <100 people care about, placing the sort of value on his wicket we like to see.
Probably what we're hoping for ultimately is a 'more fluent and shotty Richardson or Bryan Young' who'll get us back to fighting for a 60(160) pretty regularly. The sort of guy who does the sound check and sets the props, who'll see an angry and restless crowd and surprise them by lacing a few of his own acoustic covers through the covers.
Do his arm balls drift like a mofo? Can't imagine him getting any real conventional turn.looked dead to me. kain isn't a conventional slow left armer.
Didn't CD come out and dispel those rumours about Gayle? They desperatly need some more batsman though.Millmow's embarrassed himself with his trademark pessimism btw, even radio's Steve Davie saying Gayle at Pukekura Park this Wednesday.
Young dislocated his finger in the w/u apparantly. Milne had rolled his ankle so couldn't bowl.Urgh, come home to see the inevitable with such a short batting line up. Milne practically playing as a specialist batsman is mind boggling, even if he has a FC 97 at number 10. It's not like we don't have any reserve batsmen either, not to mention ten million bowling allrounders like Badenhorst who can offer something.
There must have been a short notice injury and we were probably caught out with the squad we brought down, though I notice Will Young was 12th man.
Good to see the fresher Wellington bowlers doing well.
.did Anderson get injured or something?
Corey Anderson is off for a scan on his wrist tomorrow morning, hopefully nothing too serious. Ditto for @scottbstyris missed ya #HRVCup
Pitching it a bit short to start off with. Seemed to work out his length better towards the end. Also seemed to know exactly where to take his run up to best obstruct the batsman running. Promising enough, I guess.
