    2022-2023 New Zealand First-Class Draft

    We can wait for the team release on Monday. He probably will utilise it rather than heading into the BBL stone cold in December.

    *Official* T20 Tri-Series in NZ (NZ, Pakistan, Bangladesh)

    Too much of an impertinent and boorish boer for that very tepid and dull Stead, Larsen, Williamson, Latham mix. It's a pity cricket remains a school teacher's sport in New Zealand, rather than an entrepreneurial sport. Particularly so now, seeing all the money just comes from Indian TV and you...

    *Official* T20 Tri-Series in NZ (NZ, Pakistan, Bangladesh)

    Can we get that South African who dominated NZ domestic cricket in the mid-2010s back into the top order at all? Averages 33 after 32 games of BBL. Probably shouldn't be scoffed at by a T20 team like NZ's tbh. I'm afraid that other braai guy is just another inhibited and awkward NZ cricket...

    *Official* T20 Tri-Series in NZ (NZ, Pakistan, Bangladesh)

    Yes, the later the NZ start time the better, especially for weekend games. There's a guide to how the YouTube analytics pages tend to look like (on a channel where the theme is 95% NZ emerging names):

    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    Oh just last week I was reading on Twitter two Indians watching NZA and one was downplaying the scores made against their attack, writing them off as really nothing more than "farmers". Trust me, at no point would you ever see 'farmer' used as a synonym for 'second-rate cricketer' if it were...

    Yes, I knew he prefers a speedy indoor carpet and a 140+ ball hitting his bat, but being outscored by Joe Carter in Indian conditions wasn't something I foresaw. Work from home and raise your little superstar in the Bay of Plenty and well away from Wellington's indoor carpet, if you truly wish...

    New Zealand A tour of India (A) – September 2022

    Probably just the rapid burst of T20Is coming up in a NZ tri-series (beginning 8 Oct) that I mentioned.

    New Zealand A tour of India (A) – September 2022

    Better scoring from Ravindra at last. He's described his entry into the NZ team as a middle-order all-rounder as "understandable" in one of these newspaper articles. Will Young back in the gun...

    New Zealand A tour of India (A) – September 2022

    Yes, about that. 143kph as an U19 in 2018, then needed an action reconfiguration. Not that keen NZ domestic viewers would know with any accuracy what Fisher is now. The tech, camera work and commentary of NZ domestic games has deteriorated a bit over the years as well.

    New Zealand A tour of India (A) – September 2022

    Lack of 150+ pace (or really any glamour at all) in this NZ touring party has turned off the whole 'let's broadcast it' idea. The India A vs New Zealand A ODI series will not be telecast or streamed online. You can follow all the live updates from the venue through Sportstar’s live coverage and...

    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    Oh Foxcroft's 21 first-class wickets @ 18 weren't exactly making the offspinners of the world fall off their seats at the sheer artistry involved in them though tbh. New Zealand men almost have to do something beyond our shores, these days. It's become a lot like the 'controlled opposition'...

    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    Young actually skies his pull shots a lot when the pitch and bowling is quick enough. All the weight gets stuck on his front foot. Foxcroft...quite a brave handler of very quick bowling. He was getting hit in the stomach and forearm as often as he was actually connecting with his pull shots...

    New Zealand A tour of India (A) – September 2022

    To be fair, Chapman perhaps already on an early flight back, for a New Zealand T20I Tri-Series. https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/new-zealand-t20i-tri-series-2022-23-1322281

    New Zealand A tour of India (A) – September 2022

    I can see why Troy Johnson and Devan Vishvaka would quite often outscore Ravindra by plenty on their Hutt Hawks tours of India. Joe Carter may've laboured his way to recent tons, but surely he's nowhere near representing NZ in white ball formats. Chapman should've really played all three of...
