***Official*** Australia vs New Zealand ODIs 2016/17

The end of Watling in ODIs?

If he is not batting in the top 4, I don't see a reason why he should play ahead of Blundell or Siefert.

 

[straw man]

Out, out, brief candle! Life is but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage and is heard no more. It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

^^ written about Colin Munro afaics. So much sound and fury, so few runs.

Why was Neesham left out?

Reckon one of those will debut next T20I we play.

Arm.

I don't see him adding the value to our ODI side that a lot of folks predicted he would. Possibly would have suited the 1990s style of ODI batting down the order, but not the modern day stuff.

Arm.

A shame really. Looked good last match. Could do with a nice quick fire 50 from him right now.

 

[straw man]

A well-squandered innings guys

Yeah BJ kind of sucks, Head got the better of him there.

 

[Starfighter]

I dunno about that. Looked like it may have snuck through.

Boys against men...

We're not going to improve till the system changes, our system is hell bent on picking mediocre European technicians and sloggers.

As someone who has played club cricket, I can tell you that we are missing out big time by not investing in young Asian batsmen.

Generally they are far more talented, the issue they have is recklessness yet they rarely get into the prem and A teams, instead their talent is wasted in the lower grades rather than identified and developed by coaches.

 

[The Hutt Rec]

Hmm, that looked not out to me. I don't think he did have his fingers under it.

Based on his recent domestic T20 form, Chapman will probably be coming into the team sooner rather than later.

It's embarrassing to see how the likes of Nicolls have made it to this level.

 

[Starfighter]

Another good one from Starc.

 

[Blocky]

Pathetic batting.

 

[CM Punk]

I actually thought we were favorites before the chase started

Mediocre technicians and useless power hitters who are **** against good bowlers.

50/50 and certainly favourites 10 overs in. NZ sure know how to lose matches. If it's not the bowling it'll be the batting.
