***Official*** New Zealand Domestic Season 2008/09

[JimmyGS]

Did anyone know that the ND wicket-keeper Shane Gadson is only 17, and he only just turned 17. Wow.

Says much more about the lack of depth in ND cricket than it does about his ability to be blunt.

 

[James]

does anyone know much about matt sinclair bowling, i havent seen him bowl just noticing him in the bowling line uo on the net score sheets etc.. seems to be picking up wickets.

Amazing bowling, 16 overs, 10 maidens, 2 for 10.

Leave a comment in this latest blog article on the frontpage of Cricket Web and I'm sure he'd follow up with a response for you

 

[Natman20]

Sinclair comes in to bowl for the first time today and bowls Bowden his first ball.

 

[Polo23]

Lets see how our test players are doing...

McIntosh - 74 vs Otago
Flynn - 103* vs Canterbury
Franklin - 76 vs CD

Martin - 0/60 off 16
Arnel - 4/38 off 18

All in good form bar Martin, who's figures were absolute ****e.

 

[Flem274*]

CD throwing away the advantage, bloody Nevin.

ND batting and bowling well. Interestng to see Anton Devich opening, thought he was a middle order allrounder?

England A starting the chase badly

Auckland dominating Wagner.

 

[Flem274*]

Kitchen Sink brings up his century off 120 odd balls.

Williamson gets a fifty.

Trott and Morgan ****ing nZ A's bowling over.

Skippy off to a breezy start, Vijay on debut stonewalling his way to a decent debut score.

 

[straw man]

Neil Wagner surprisingly ineffective today with 1/95. Auckland absolutely slaughtering Otago.

 

[HeathDavisSpeed]

Sinclair comes in to bowl for the first time today and bowls Bowden his first ball.

Does Bowden even count as a wicket these days? He's a bag of ****e.

Should be stricken from the first class record.

 

[Manee]

Great start to the tour for Murali Vijay, this will likely propel him to first reserve status in the Test squad.

 

[Flem274*]

Haha, he's Indian? No wonder. I was thinking "who on earth is this bloke, never heard of whispers of him in the CD ranks". I'll see myself out.

 

[Manee]

Bye.

 

[Blakey]

so Southee bags five and am I reading things right - davis with four and very economical. Pitch must be a bitch to bat on.

 

[Flem274*]

Whats with the usual piechuckers suddenly finding their line and length? I'm not complaining, but all of a sudden generally poor bowlers are doing well.

 

[Polo23]

Yesterday the scorecard said Brent Arnel, and now it says Te Ahu Davis...so..who is it?

 

[Polo23]

DAY 3: TT Davis replaced BJ Arnel (ND) as Arnel called into New Zealand Test squad. Bowling figures in Canterbury first innings belong to Arnel and batting in ND first innings belongs to Arnel. Arnel had bowling figures of 2-0-4-1 in Canterbury second innings before being replaced by Davis.

So it was Arnel who took the 4fa and the first wicket in the second innings. Davis has no wickets as of yet.

 

[Flem274*]

Arnel may have joined the nZ squad during the match, so Davis was subbed on or something...

[Polo23]

I think you are missing Timmy Mac's ton vs the Windies.

 

[HeathDavisSpeed]

Doesn't count. His first chance average is only about 5.

Luke Woodcock doing his best to ensure the draw for Wellington against CD. 9 off 40 balls. What are you doing, man?

 

[204*]

Kane Williamson also picked up a 5-wicket haul
