*Official* New Zealand in India 2010

[blahblahblah]

I'm sorry Gareth ****kins. I was wrong about you. You are EVEN WORSE THAN I THOUGHT.

 

[NZ Guy]

Oh dear, the pitch resembling a hospital here

 

[blahblahblah]

when was the ryder injured?

 

[TT Boy]

Hopkins looks a lot like Paul Nixon in his Cricinfo profile photo. Not as a good as Nixon with the gloves or with the bat mind.

 

[duffer]

Wow, previous injuries being aggravated. Jeebus.

 

[duffer]

Can so see Jess bludgeoning a century here. Would be typical.

 

[Meridio]

And McCullum plays a reverse sweep! Comedy cricket here.

 

[NZ Guy]

Really eerie feel to this match, almost feels like we're watching an open wicket practice

 

[Bahnz]

Jesse practically hopping on one leg. It'll either be over quickly or it'll be one entertaining last session.

 

[duffer]

Heh Arun Lal. Soon he'll need another bat to act as a crutch!

Strange, strange session of cricket so far. Not trying to make light of it but much respect to Ryder batting on here if he has a torn calfie.

 

[NZ Guy]

Why oh why do all our good players break down every two games! I thought it was just the bowlers but no, the batsman now too

 

[Meridio]

This is bizarre.

 

[duffer]

At what point does bravery turn into stupidity regarding playing on with serious injuries(especially Ryder's)?

 

[straw man]

Why don't they have runners?

 

[Bahnz]

Heh Arun Lal. Soon he'll need another bat to act as a crutch!

Yeah, but if he stays out there for too long, he could wind up doing the sort of damage that could keep him out for an extended period of time, like what happened after he tore a groin muscle in the CT.

 

[Prince EWS]

Why don't they have runners?

Pre-existing injuries.

 

[blahblahblah]

so a match savin partnership now?

 

[chicane]

Would suck for NZ if Ryder is taken out by injury, has fairly breezed towards 50. You unfit ****. Think these two will take NZ past 200 atleast.

 

[NZ Guy]

Both were injured prior to the match, reckon they should just have a blast tbh although wouldn't be suprised if McCullum physically couldn't

 

[Bahnz]

Why don't they have runners?

You can't have a runner for an injury that occured before the flipping of the toss. Also, Ryder has aggravated an already existing injury so he's not allowed a runner either.
