You're the living epitome of everything that holds NZ cricket back from reaching its full potential.

Because I don't agree with you haha thanks mate

I can imagine Kippax will be going, told you so. That's all right, those were two top notch balls. No shame in getting out that would have got anyone out.

Only real response to this type of post imo is NAH YOU ARE

Just looking at the A team match, there have been some serious lol limited over dismissals. I guess that's what you get when you ask guys that have been in T20 mode to play 4 day.

Laughed at Mark Richardson saying he has nightmares where he's forced to play cricket again.

The problem is he rates one player, Conway. Not that I don't rate him but I don't trust he's the only good player in the country. I'd love to see Conway do well but he's not playing and got to back whoever is. Simple as that. It's not like I'm Young's old man it hurts but I want him to do well.

I love how Kippax has only two modes
1. eccentric/whimsical cricket fanatic
2. goes for the jugular

 

[straw man]

The more general question here is, we've seemingly decided to convert one batsman to opener - the alternative is Cooper or wait for Ravindra but that's some way off. So who should it be?

Blundell
Conway
Young
Nicholls

Conway would probably do the best job, but as always that increases the chances of getting nicked off early, which may decrease team output.

Went to the pub to watch half an hour of cricket at lunch and they didn't have Spark Sport. World's gone mad. Rhyme and Reason "Mt Alpha IPA" a solid 4/5 though, moderately hazy appearance but surprising floral/spicy hop notes.

 

[Bahnz]

When's the lunch break scheduled for today?

 

[Athlai]

How tall was the bartender?

 

[Beamer]

Hiding the ball a bit here. They do need to bowl straighter.

Hmmm, have always had the bar between me and old mate, but I wanna say about 5'8 1/2"

Latham has been good so far this morning.

Yeah I said it.

Almost winning world cups seems the peak for Australia's overseas puppet state.

I think he means Sky Sports UK. I assume this stream is for countries where no one bought the rights.

Yes, I’m watching on YouTube in Japan.

Why couldn’t I do this before? It’a not as if Japan has ever bought broadcasting rights for cricket.

 

[Kippax]

Just a slightly younger and more internet-orientated outlook on things from Spark Sport execs vs. Sky NZ execs, I suppose.

A bit frustrating I splashed out on an apple tv and subscribed to spark when I could have just used youtube and vpn, but I guess I'm indirectly supporting NZC. Have to say the Spark coverage is so far miles better than Sky's was.
