***Official*** Sri Lanka in New Zealand 2015

Needing to have verbatim quotes of people calling KW much better than Smith is a little bit disingenuous, the sheer weight of posting is enough of a clue we aren't children. We have a 25 page average thread about KW's average, despite his average being lower than many other top batsmen currently playing.

so short answer, you got nothing

there's a million page thread dedicated to pictures of steve smith. god knows what conclusions you draw from that other than some (disturbed) people like posting steve smith pictures.

Ah, stop this KW-debate or take that to another thread please guys.

Meanwhile NZ bats first today. For restricting them below 300, SL need to take 3 wickets in the first 20.

is grant elliott injured or just moved on?

Recovered from injury, played twice for Wellington (without success), had been picked in the NZ T20 squad. Assume the selectors felt no need to rush him back for the final 3 ODIs, giving Nicholls / Worker a run at #5 with an eye to the future.

Q) Is it true that McCullum called Cook 'our generations Bradman' Q) Yes, yes it is.

McCullum's statement is his opinion, and a patently absurd one at that.

AB's statement is the truth. He would have Williamson bat for his life.

Are you incapable of seeing the difference?

He's in the T20 squad. I guess that's their way of easing him back in? I imagine a fit Elliott would definitely be wanted for the Australian ODI's.

AB's is his opinion as well.

I don't believe there have been any posts stating that Williamson is much better than Smith.

 

[BeeGee]

Williamson wins the toss

Greatest since Bradman.

my TV isn't showing this match

 

[Flem274*]

cricket is always free if you know where to look

 

[Skyliner]

Slow pitch(?)

 

[Moss]

Definitely slower than Christchurch. Guptill seems to have judged the pace well so far.

 

[Flem274*]

probably not a fast enough deck to attempt bouncers

brutal shot

 

[Moss]

Top shot Latham.

Recalling the start of the year when Guptill was pretty much in Kulasekara's pocket and his place in the starting lineup was considered not a sure shot thing.

 

[vandem]

Definitely slower than Christchurch. Guptill seems to have judged the pace well so far.

320 run pitch?

Will be interesting how they play Vandersay. Nurdle singles for 5 rpo? Takes risks and hit over the top to throw him off a length?

 

[Flem274*]

awww no fun

 

[Meridio]

Was just about to admire how cleanly Guptill hits the ball, and then that happens.

1st one gone in 7.2. 2 more needed in the next 12.4.
