TOO GOOD z

 

[straw man]

Lol Gillespie

If we're having the too few batsmen then, then yes I agree we have too few batsmen in this team, because we only have three plus the keeper.

 

[Jarquis]

Tahir worth a roll?

 

[Briony]

Tahir worth a roll?

He would have to be at the crossroads.

SA's been patient with him but he hasn't really delivered. They might be just as well off with de Lange instead.

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

Looked outside the line in real time, but that is dead. Good decision.

Just thinking when your two premier bowlers are getting carted there's probably a case for changing something. You could afford an expensive Tahir over if it bought you the wicket of this partnership.
Turns out it's the other bowling change which does the job though.

Gillespie is such a legend with the bat.

Fact is McCullum has 167 runs at 86.5 and Rossco has 136 at 68 this series. Vettori lagging with 46 at 23. But unfortunately the lack of other batsmen means those dudes need to all average 80-100 :/

 

[Mike5181]

Haha go Gillespie!

 

[Flem274*]

Sadface

Safe to say Gillespie is a bit of a hero.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Haha go Gillespie!

He obliges

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

With the way Gillespie was batting, it really needed a moment of brilliance like that to get him out!

 

[Jarquis]

Tahir worth a roll?

And he gets the guy who was carting it to all parts... claiming it.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Always wonder why Martin doesn't just have a crack at the spinners, what with all the close in fielders there.

 

[Flem274*]

Guptill-Has never done anything to ever suggest he is a test batsman, and it's no coincidence his "great form" coincided with playing Zimbabwe. ODI specialist for now.

Nicol-Is an average first class opener, so I'm not sure why they've picked him.

Williamson-ND Syndrome spares no one.

 

[Spikey]

why would NZ break up the promising Boult-Martin combo? Martin will get a duck now

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

McMillan is an absolute muppet talking about bowling short to dismiss Martin. Such a muppet. Just aim at the ****ing stumps.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Morklol. Short and wide to Chris ****ing Martin.

 

[Flem274*]

Amazes me how many people bowl short to Marto.

And that's it. Lol, such a bunch of hacks.
