    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    Well that's right, ideally & if not that I wouldn't even be against an ultra aggressive opener as an alternative approach to take the game on ala England, but Young is neither of those things. He should be one of a couple of middle order replacement players as cover for batting positions 4 -6...

    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    Yep Young is just the latest middle order bat NZ have tried to manufacture into an opener when he's clearly not up to opening at the top level. Looked all at sea against that good Australian attack, & not just the low scores but in just how awful he looked - like literally a walking wicket...

    An honorable draw first up - not a bad result for NZ B

    Michael Slater in BIG Strife

    So what's the excuse for Michael Slater then?

    Just how many "ATGs" are there in your mind?

    Bump - off the back of the question coming up a couple of times of late.

    Michael Slater in BIG Strife

    Some serious issues this lad. Found his rap-sheet from the last 3 years; October 2021: arrested on charges of domestic violence and stalking December 2021: arrested after breaching an AVO. Released on police bail April 2022: police called to a unit in Manly, police start investigating him...

    ***Official*** IPL 2024

    Not sure how CSK can justify continuing to pick Mitchell in their top XI irrespective of the stupid price they paid for him. An average of 27 & SR of 125 really isn't good enough for a specialist middle order IPL bat in 2024, SR needs to be at least 140 IMO. Ravindra's average is even worse...

    Good from Smith, and top order wickets too, including Test bat Duckett twice. https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/county-championship-division-one-2024-1410191/nottinghamshire-vs-worcestershire-8th-match-1410200/match-report

    Is Jonty Rhodes the best fielder International Cricket has seen ?

    CBA reading the whole thread, but Gus Logie is worthy of a mention if he hasn't been already

    Best 'bad fielders' XI

    Lol Richardson was an ordinary fieldsman but there was no medical issue, he was just slow. Hence why he liked to challenge the slowest player from the opposition to a race. This one against Lehmann, which included hurdling a keg, Rigor won.

    ***Official*** IPL 2024

    His IPL batting record is horrible, even worse than Tendulkar's which was also poor, even for that early period of IPL. No way justification for KKR's all-time XI. Terrible selection.

    ***Official*** IPL 2024

    Lol @ Kallis' selection, sure if you want your number 3 batsman striking at less than 110.

    Who is the 2nd greatest Kiwi Bowler?

    Not really, he makes my top 100.

    Who is the 2nd greatest Kiwi Bowler?

    Yeah probably is Cowie, and pleased you point out those non-Tests when he performed against the best. Makes my top 5 Test bowlers after Sir Dick as 1 Cowie 2 Boult 3 Wagner 4 Bond (despite the low no. of Tests and ordinary average vs. Aus in his 1st series there) 5 Jamieson
