*Official* Srilanka and New Zealand LO tours to India - Jan 2023

Be honest what kind of wickets are these games being played on? And where are all NZ's bowlers

Reminds me of the 2013 odi series where George Bailey made runs and James Faulkner made a ton
Mixture of injuries and resting players (which I don’t really understand in an India World Cup year?) means we are effectively fielding our 3rd string seamers + Ferguson.

Conditions for this match are 10/10 batting favourable.

feeding these bowlers to that Indian top-order is just brutal, even before factoring in conditions

Is this the same Allen that was smacking Starc and Hazlewood around for fun? Tentatively gets bowled by Hardik Pandya, hard to believe

He's middled that onto his stumps
He knows how to score at SR 200 but it doesn't last long. Has not worked out how to balance attack and defense less attack yet.

We’ve decided a guy who barely averages 30 in any form or level of cricket is our locked in ODI opener and I seem to be the only one who would prefer it if he had some track record of you know…scoring runs

Another stellar contribution from Nicholls with that review.

Don’t like piling on the guy here but he needs to return to domestic and earn his place back.

Lord Thakur ensuring Latham for once does nothing of note in a series against India.
Though must be said India seemed to have done their homework against him in the first game when he struggled in the middle overs

why the **** is there a clamour to get ****ing Patidar into the odi xi in this thread as if some grave injustice has been done to not play him? he’s okay for being on the bench and playing in case of an emergency but even then there are other players more deserving to be ahead of him
