**Official** New Zealand Domestic Season 2013/2014

"NZC! NZC!! They're using lateral again!"

"Is this true, CD?"

"Yes, yes it is. We were paying $20 at the TAB."

 

[Mike5181]

Wheeler, Small, Henry, and Verma in the wickets this round is so good.

 

[Blocky]

14 for 3, with Kuggs getting all three... chasing 70 - time for Will Young to step up and show what people think he has.

 

[Bahnz]

Wheeler with 59 wickets at under 26. Those really are the kind of figures that should be gaining the attention of the selectors.

 

[HeathDavisSpeed]

De Grandhomme and Cachopa both hit some ovoleee shots before a late comeback from Wellington. A dirty slog across the line to Woodcock cost Cachopa his wuckit, a rank shot (again across the line) from Hopkins saw him depart and then a decent ball from Gilluspie saw to de Grandhomme.

55 @ 21.70 is even better from Matt Henry

AFAIK Wh33ler hasn't played any A cricket for NZ while Henry did and didn't do that great.

 

[Flem274*]

both should be next in line.

Southee goes down, Henry comes in.
Boult goes down, Wheeler comes in.

Tbf to Henry it was his first visit to the subcontinent and he did bowl beautifully for no reward in a couple of games, he just didn't know how to respond when batsmen went after him on those pitches.

 

[Days of Grace]

Anyone know why Trent Boult is not playing in this round? Is he being rested?

 

[ohnoitsyou]

Sore leg, or if not then something minor

 

[Howsie]

AFAIK Wh33ler hasn't played any A cricket for NZ while Henry did and didn't do that great.

He did back in 2011, he was picked along with Bracewell iirc. Got injured after the first game however.

 

[hendrix]

this vault thing is amazing.

Out of the 204 balls that Latham faced in both innings, he played and missed only 9 times, 3 of which were down the leg side. He executed shots poorly only 4 times.

He hit the ball in the air zero times.

 

[ohnoitsyou]

Hendrix is getting more and more insufferable

 

[Howsie]

CD are going down here....

 

[ohnoitsyou]

I can so see Van Wyk and Bracewell saving this

 

[hendrix]

wtf is happening?

 

[Howsie]

wtf is happening?

Bad day? I mean this is a who's who of batting superstars according to most.

 

[ohnoitsyou]

Yuss. Aldridge WAG

Haha. This coming from the team whose top scorer in this game by some margin is Scott Kuggleleijn?

Top orders have not enjoyed this wicket. In all 3 completed innings, the batting side has been 5 down before 100 has been on the board.
