    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    Indeed. It could be worse too - if the SuperSmash is still on FTA then we'll still have something to watch, but the Tests man... the Tests. I'll probably just go to the ground more instead or something like that. I wonder if there might still be algorithm-led highlights packages on FTA.

    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    Bugger. That’s a very disappointing turn of events. Can’t say I’m surprised though. I doubt it’ll get me back on Sky so I’ll probably end up not watching the cricket any more. Bad for me, bad for the kids too.

    Pick the ideal batsman for these scenarios

    Russel Arnold for each scenario. It’d be great fun for all involved!

    2024–25 NZ domestic season

    Tashkoff seems to have hit some form in a pretty random role as opener. I can't help but think that the Wellington selection at the moment is either by drawing of cards or a blindfolded knife-thrower chucking at a spinning disc covered in the faces of the available options.

    *Official* Ireland in Zimbabwe

    What’s the point in George Dockrell these days? Barely ever bowls and surely isn’t good enough with the bat to be a top order bat/occasional bowler.

    I see Williamson has signed a contract with Middlesex and some poxy hundred team for the Summer. Not sure how this impacts on the international fixtures, but I’ll assume negatively until I check the calendar.

    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    Allott used to infuriate me - but mainly because he'd get selected for the Test team based on his ODI exploits and then repeatedly fail.

    Martin Bicknell vs. Jacques Rudolph. I'll see if there's a video.

    2024–25 NZ domestic season

    Though it has saved me the incessant questions about which team is which. Easier with the retro shirts, but the modern ones are too similar - Northern and Wellington both have lots of black, Auckland and Otago both with blue and Northern and Canterbury with orange/red. Also, try explaining the...

    2024–25 NZ domestic season

    I'm missing the Super Smash quite a bit tbh. My litt'lun has asked to watch it (ahead of Bluey even sometimes) and was pretty disappointed when I told her this evening that the cricket was over for the season and wasn't on every night any more.

    **Official** English Football Season 2024/25

    Dragusin supposedly out with Anterior Cruciate Ligament injury, so that Spurs defense still looks very light on backup with only one defensive signing. Guess we'll see more midfielders playing in defense then!

    **Official** English Football Season 2024/25

    Back to the past for Colchester; immersed in mid-table obscurity. A much improved situation from recent seasons of propping up the pyramid. An interesting January with a number of players released by mutual consent. Feels like we've got a decent manager at last, but not the ideal playing...

    CW Worst 15 Cricketers of All Time - The Results

    I'd agree that the outcome is hilarious. Even my write-up of the Smith vote uses that. But a vote is only ever about a point in time - the vote may have had an embarrassing outcome, but I'd say the thread is fun rather than embarrassing in (general).

    Kane Williamson vs AB de Villiers

    Is there any way to easily see at what point in an innings that a player started their innings? Williamson has often been a pseudo-opener given the high propensity of New Zealand openers to failure. I cbf to go through all the scorecards individually; perhaps this data is held in a table...

    Virat Kohli vs kane Williamson

    We need a moratorium on comparison threads with Kane Williamson in as they degenerate so quickly into some of the most egregiously flawed analyses ever committed to the internet. As someone who works with data everyday, the old adage that data without context isn’t information applies heavily to...
