    Boxing thread

    It's an incredibly good short notice fight but I hate this fight for Parker. I think there's some good money to be made on Bakole by KO. I see him walking Parker down and casually boshing him all over the ring.

    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    The argument in question was after that performance and was framed more like ‘we all now know that Southee is an elite ODI bowler but are we still allowed to say that pre-tournament there was an argument that Mills was better, without being banned from CW?”. Even I didn’t have the courage to...

    Dang I was getting hammered for daring to sheepishly argue that the evidence suggested that Mills was a better ODI bowler than Southee heading into the WC. Turns out ODI Mills>>>>>>>>ODI Southee 😎

    1st Match - Pakistan v New Zealand

    Fakhar is an absolute monster against us. Assuming he’s able to bat in a position that allows him much influence over the game, we really need to get him early.

    1st Match - Pakistan v New Zealand

    Kind of an odd scorecard. We’ve done really well at the death but the score still looks a bit light for only being 5 down with 2 centurions. If Pakistan come out and smash it the 40-odd balls faced by Conway/Williamson/Mitchell will look pretty significant.

    1st Match - Pakistan v New Zealand

    It’s been sort of a clunky innings from Latham but his luck seems to have turned dramatically in the last 2 games. Lots of miss hits and leading edges lobbing into gaps

    1st Match - Pakistan v New Zealand

    Bracewell was given hell because he had not earned his spot with compelling domestic performances and was being shoehorned into an all-rounder spot when he had barely bowled domestically. The criticism was vindicated by his failure in test cricket. The criticism of his white ball selection/form...

    Rash slog from Young but that’s a pretty good innings I guess

    Cricket stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

    I've never thought that T20 batting wasn't hard, in fact I'm predisposed to think it's incredibly hard because of my own limitations as a player. The hitting ability of the modern player blows my mind. I just don't think T20 is interesting because "aggressive fielding side trying to work out a...

    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    This could just be selective memory from an era when we were short of pacey bowlers, but I honestly think peak Mills was a yard quicker than he’s remembered as being too. With his height he used to bowl an uncomfortable length with the new ball and he’d hit the splice if there was anything in...

    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    I think Mills suffers from the fact that he had a horror run in World Cups and somehow conspired to more or less miss them entirely despite his career encompassing 4 of them. Just horror luck with injuries, and of course in 2015 he had done more than enough to earn selection but it's hard to...

    Fletcher 100% would have played on that never ending 2022 white ball tour but he got injured and replaced by Cleaver during the England test series which was before the white ball stuff (where we played the Netherlands, West Indies, Scotland, Ireland et al)

    **Official** Pakistan Tri-Nation Series

    Phillips went from 50-100 in 20 balls - not faced by him, 3.2 overs of the innings. Can’t have been too many times that any 50-run milestone has been knocked off quicker than that in any format.
