The Kane Williamson Average Watch thread

[vitalogy83]

I certainly agree with Blocks bit about Kane's technique. He was supremely successful because he played ball so late. He's just lost that a bit. I guess when you are in a semi-rut that one of the first things to get affected. He needs to find his zone again.

 

[NZTailender]

You disagree? How about you look at Kane's record...

Better yet, watch his innings from today again.

Our commies were embarrassingly talking up Kane like a batting genius in his 13 run innings where he was dismissed twice.

Good batsman gets out for small total in latest innings. Must be mud.

Would love to have seen you commentating Bradman's final innings.

Ftr, I know Kane's record and it's pretty good. Centuries against everyone and when it's mattered, too. Scored 1000+ runs in a calendar year, which McCullum was the only other NZer to do. Hasn't scored a century against test class opposition in nearly a year (but a few 50s, some 90s iirc) and you're rubbishing the bloke. Everyone has a bit of a slump, but you're taking this shitweather fan stuff to the extreme.

There's a reason why these 4 batsman that get talked about haven't quite reached that level of Amla, de Villiers, Khan () et al. Because they're young and haven't quite made it round the world three times and ironed out all the kinks like you'd expect them too, like the rest of the seasoned pros previously mentioned.

Reading through this thread gave me a headache

Two take aways:

1) People argue with Blocky for the ez likes. Really is no other point to it right?

2) I'm happy De Kock is now in the discussion. The Fab 4 is now the Fab 5.

Now people saying Williamson doesn't score tough runs when it matters.

ye I hand out lots of likes for posts that make Blocky look dumb, and enjoy reaping easy likes at his expense

Blocky is good for the economy. Making CW great again.

Is Burgey pronounced Bur-Jee or Bur-Gee?

I've always thought of it is Bur-Gee as in Ice-Berg

 

[Blocky]

At least Kane can put the brakes on between the wickets when he's got a chance for some downhill slope skiing.
