    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    I did some digging a little while back and the SS is quite top heavy IIRC which keeps a lid on scores - once you get through the top 5 there usually isn't much else.

    you forget that the australian process of determining respect for someone is whether they had a good test match against them at some point

    yeah reading between the lines of interviews with him it sounded like he always struggled a bit mentally with batting, and thrived once he got a clearly defined role.

    The people didn't ask for it, and here it is. Apologies for the delay, caught a nasty norovirus which wiped me out for four days. First call is comparing Jimmy's batting against those batting in the same position So for batting 6 and 7, Neesham both averages and strikes above the average...

    afghanistan have bowled tripe but the way Head effortlessly switches between making room and getting inside the line makes the margins so fine

    I'm gonna go and compare his returns to the Expected Runs in every ODI innings he'd played as a finisher. When your job is to come in and slog from ball one your numbers are basically guaranteed to suck if you're not an ATG.

    Finn has his issues but I'm not a hater. I still have him in our best T20 side. But it's not a good sign to come back to NZ domestic and be struggling against Tickner.
