He's not the most eloquent guy but the message was pretty clear there.

I'm late to the thread party (getting cricket news in the United States is tricky, sometimes I completely miss something if I'm not actively looking for it).

However...

What... the... !"£$!%$!£^%£"*^£$&%!)"£&%)*!"%"

I'm just lost for words in response to this decision. Completely lost.

Nice summary of the previous 36 pages of this thread. Not often we find so many folk pretty much unanimous about something. And the media seem to be on the same wavelength (I watched The Crowd Goes Wild on Prime specifically to see their take on this... typically blunt). Also similar responses on the BlackCaps facebook page (though there is one staunch supporter of McCullum on there who may be Stu, Nathan or his mother in disguise).

I wonder if White, Hesson, McCullum and co read any of it?

So, in conclusion, either Hesson or Taylor is lying. Which one of them is it?

If it is Hesson, why is he still saying the same thing as he was yesterday after Taylor told his version of the story?

Geez, Taylor is such a gun. Normally this **** only comes out in books 5 years later, but he has chosen to voice what really went on now. WAFG. Can't imagine White or Hesson are happy with him not toeing the party line.

Just as an aside... Americans call the hash symbol (#) pound. First day I moved over here and I'm listening to an auto phone menu system and the voice says, "Please enter your phone number then hit the pound key."
Pound key? What ****ing pound key? Since when does a phone have a ****ing pound key? You stupid ****ing bitch!

Sri Lanka was Taylor's finest hour as captain without a doubt. Told management where to go, made sure none of his team except his best mate Guptill found out what was going on so they weren't affected on the field, failed in the first test horrendously and under all this pressure he rallied the side to victory in the second test and got man of the match to boot.

That's even more reason to keep him on as the skipper.

Oh awesome, as I listen he's slamming management and NZC, but with amazing restraint. It's logical, calm criticism. WAG!

"Someone is not telling the truth Ross."

"Correct"

Poor bloke sounds exhausted, and Veitch is in shock at some of the things Taylor is saying.

edit: holy ****, he's going into what he was thinking during the second test and this blokes application is unbelievable.

Shield. Bag. Lets go.

On the question of why he hasn't thrown it all in and played 20/20, Brad Hodge gets a mention..
