*Official* New Zealand Domestic Cricket Season 2012/2013

Ish has really relished a footmark and a LHB or six in the early rounds.

Quite frustrating to watch at the moment. Action and tempo varies noticeably from ball to ball. Like a very new golfer who'll hit a couple of perfect drives in each session, and also duff quite a few.

Sam Wells makes batting look so easy. Annoys me he keeps choking on the tons.

His action is explosive rather than rhythmic, which is going to leave him prone to plenty of shockers at this stage.

Huge lol at Ryder's second innings there. That first boundary is the absolute epitome of cbf batting - Hi, I'm Jesse and my eye is really good, so I'm just going to stand here, not move my feet an inch and ramp a boundary.

There's no way he'd get away with batting like that at international level.

Wow that's a lot of bowleds. Pretty big turn for NZ wickets I'd think.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Yeah watching that Ish's action really isn't great. He just kinda walks through it with all the power coming from the final shoulder and wrist flick, there's no body in it. Plenty to work with though, seems to get good revs.

Another 100 for Luke "hung like a" Ronchi. His season average now moves above Ryder's, even with Ish getting him out just now.

 

[Bahnz]

**** off Ronchi. ****ing Wellington and their imports. Get your own players you **** ****s and stop playing ****ing Australians.

The **** didn't even come home to CD. Watling better damn well cement his spot because a test with Ronchi in it is one I am not watching.

PEWS to gagf when he replies to this. Played ODIs for Australia, therefore tough luck, on your bike son. Probably a better option than Wade as things stand as well if he can catch.

I'll just leave this right here...

If Ronchi isn't actually a better option than Young, Hopkins, van Wyk etc. I'd be very surprised. Distasteful as it may be to select a former Australian international, without that stigma it's really a no-brainer, isn't it? The only alternative is BJ Watling - and that's not ideal.

 

[Immenso]

I think Hutchison got a club ton last weekend, or the week before. Lets see what he can do, Kug followed a club ton up with a FC ton.

Ronchi now has 3 FC tons on Karori Park

 

[HeathDavisSpeed]

I wonder if this match will have the highest cumulative score from #8?

 

[wellAlbidarned]

If Ronchi plays, it's under the condition that he blazes a 60 ball 100 first time he comes up against Australia.

highest run percentage?

 

[jcas0167]

Sodhi gets Kuggs caught behind for 83, and picks up a five wicket bag. I imagine ND should get the 193 needed.

 

[Bahnz]

Currently about 48.5% of the runs in this match have been scored by the men coming in from number 8 on.

It's a bit disappointing that Ish didn't rap up the tail sooner. Our batsmen are pretty hopeless at picking spin variations (just look at what Mendis did to us in SL), so you'd reckon a couple of reasonably disguised googlies would be enough to rap things up.

MC Ish known for busting out the rhymes at batsmen then?

"Yo I'm Ish Sodhi and I'm a legspinner. I eat crappy domestic batsmen like you for breakfast, lunch, and dinner."

 

[Blain]

Man Wilson is ****. A 1 and golden duck to continue his great season.

How is Elliott un droppable, he averages under 30 now in FC Cricket. This isnt the 90's!!

Kruger would never do that. Because he'd be standing about 10m further back.

He's just looking to follow in the footsteps of one of his idols.
