    *Official* England in New Zealand 2019

    I never really understood Hesson's comment anyway "he's got a super high IQ but not much EQ". What does that even mean? And Hesson/Bmac was a great era of NZ cricket, how dare you speak against it hahahaha.

    Really? A certain event in March doesn't ring any bells?

    *Official* New Zealand in Australia 2019/20

    I just think the pink ball is more likely to swing, so best to have Southee in for that test. MCG/SCG are more likely to be flat, hence the need for both Wagner and Ferguson. The thought of those two bowling in tandem is mouth-watering. Feels like this could be the best chance we have to beat...

    *Official* New Zealand in Australia 2019/20

    Posted this in another thread but more appropriate here: Assuming everyone is fit, these are my ideal XI's for NZ. Perth Test: Raval Latham KW Ross Nicholls Watling CdG Santner Southee Wagner Boult MCG/SCG: Raval Latham KW Ross Nicholls Watling CdG Santner Ferguson Wagner Boult

    Perth Test: Raval Latham KW Ross Nicholls Watling CdG Santner Southee Wagner Boult MCG/SCG: Raval Latham KW Ross Nicholls Watling CdG Santner Ferguson Wagner Boult Assuming Boult is fit of course. But I would love to see those XI's.

    This is the most likely outcome I think.

    Ludicrous squad picking both Santner and Astle. Can't believe it. I might write an open letter to Gavin Larsen.

    Phillips is probably next cab off the ranks tbh. Second best average over the last two Plunket Shield seasons after Conway...

    If you're a NZC Presale member the tickets are $48, or $42.25 for a 4 pack.

    *Official* New Zealand in Australia 2019/20

    Because of Australia pitches, I'd just be relying on top 7 with the bat rather than worrying about Santa at 8. Personally think we should pick Patel as our spinner due to Smith's supposed weakness against SLA and think he's a more wicket taking option than Santa. Somerville should defs be in...

    Why is Australia Only Playing 5 Tests this Summer?

    We should just pick Ajaz for Smith's supposed weakness against SLA Orthodox. Santner not gonna be any good in Aus this time round imo. Plus don't mind CdG batting at 7 for some epic 125 km line and length bowling.

    Pretty keen to see a bowling attack of Ferguson, Boult, Wagner and Patel tbh.

    BIt gutted Phillips hasn't made it in. Would like to see him in the squad at least. Interesting to see that he's not keeping for Auckland, he was pretty good behind the stumps in the CPL. Got my tickets for Days 1-4 of Boxing Day test, got flights pretty cheap about 650 return. Flying via...

    Yep and that was all on top of having a pretty poor 1st test at Lords. The way he bounced back was fantastic. Bit of stats analysis: -He played 15 tests -Of those 15 tests, NZ won 6, drew 2, lost 7. -Of the 6 tests we won, he played a significant role in 5 of them including MOTM in 2 of them...

    Mark Craig is one of the best battlers we ever produced. Probably sounding like a broken record here but that test he got injured, (1st test vs India in India) he bowled the best out of all our spinners. Had great drift and control and got Kohli as his 50th test wicket. Hoping he works himself...

    I was initially frustrated at this. But agree that SKY is gonna be ****ed if they dont get the SANZAAR rights, so hoping long term maybe Spark look at getting on board with ICC etc. Annoying we have to pay for 2 platforms now, but I'm just hoping that all the cricket is included in Spark...
