    *Official* New Zealand in Zimbabwe 2025 (Tests)

    Foulkes reminds me of Sam Curran really. Curran a better bat but bowling wise pretty similar. Nice shape, but probably not quick enough or tall enough for test cricket. Foulkes has a pretty sharp bouncer tbf, and takes wickets with it. If he can consistently be up around that late 130’s mark...

    So has Nicholls only seemingly jumped ahead of Chapman again because Chapman has decided to play in this 100 tournament? Pretty crazy really if true because doesn’t he have a national contract?

    Yeah I thought Chapman had been the backup test bat the last few series. Admittedly I barely watch or follow cricket much nowadays (cheers Gary) but this new chap hasn’t exactly done anything to make me think things are going to change. Nicholls, he was done about 3 years ago. Blundell about 18...

    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    Good for Fisher, he just needs to stay fit. How the **** has that ****roach Nicholls snuck back into the setup…. I see he’s been having an absolute terrible time of it in county cricket. An average of 16 while everyone around the country plunders runs.

    Hmmm I don’t know. Hay is a blue chip prospect, should be playing every chance we can fit him in. Seifert is what he is, I definitely don’t think he’s a long term option in 50 over cricket.

    Id love to know why he has this reputation as someone with no power. He’s shown this sort of ball striking ability a few times now

    2024–25 NZ domestic season

    You’d have to think that if Xavier Bell goes big here again for ND A he might be in line for a first class debut to end the season. Back to back 100’s for Hamilton and a massive 180 for ND A last week. The kid is piling on some massive runs.

    Bruce currently 288 not out. Nice effort. Must be said that Auckland attack is shithouse though. Would it kill them to provide some decent fast bowling for once

    Cleaver has 5000 runs @ 40. Crazy to think really. Imagine saying we’d have a keeper with that record in FC back in 2011/12 and he’d never get a test match

    Surely Cowie was a weapon with the old ball too?

    All-Time New Zealand XIs - A re-run

    He took 45 test wickets, shouldn’t be anywhere near them. What Kyle Jamieson has done for NZ in test cricket he’d deserve it more than Cowie.

    Hampton continues to dominate this season. 3 wicket over maiden to start the day 🤣
