    Some words of wisdon from Stead to get us all fired up for the test matches this season:

    Wish I'd got a heartfelt shower of praise like Sumo just gave Mackay every time I'd played a shocker of an innings. 😂

    2023–24 NZ women's summer

    Mackay has had a few strange knocks this year.

    74 in his second ODI ... I mean he did better there against prime Lee than Michael Papps did a few years later.

    Haha I was the biggest Nevin proponent out there. I remember Martin Crowe was right behind him too. In the end his domestic list A average of 26.8 says perhaps he wasn't the guy.

    Blundell? Got 71 off 39 in his only Super Smash game this season.

    The home of cricket with a low, slow clunker of a pitch.

    If that's the sort of stuff they get up to at the home of cricket, I don't want to watch this sport anymore.

    Pakistan doing a solid for those of us missing test cricket.

    Canterbury people seem obsessed with claiming it's the "home of cricket" ... who cares, if it makes them feel better then go for it. 😂

    NZ domestic season 2023/24

    Surprised they've gone with Eden Park ... to be fair both it and the Outer Oval are pretty terrible for a final from a field size and dimension point of view. Annoying that once again the Blaze miss out on a home final because it's played at the men's venue. And if the Firebirds finish second...

    That guy trying to nick the ball in the crowd was outstanding, knocked over a little kid and made it about two metres before security got him. 🤣

    Very disappointing from Young after some good super smash form.

    It happened eight days ago.

    2023–24 NZ women's summer

    Watching the replay on tvnz I think she did run the first quite fast, but then grounded her bat short (or thought she did, anyway - looks like she might have actually got it in on first go) and had to go back and tap her bat again. That slowed her down massively.

    Sure, I’m not saying tests are more popular. Just that there’s plenty of support for them out there. But the Basin does sell out for most tests against decent sides. Basin is 6400, Hagley 8000 (also close to sold out for Aus), University Oval 6000, Seddon 10,000. All quite similarly sized and...

    On the other hand, the Australian test match at the Basin sold out all days weeks ago. I think the Blackcaps are just a good drawcard these days, and free to air is no doubt helping.

    NZ domestic season 2023/24

    Umm, excuse me, according to the Spark commentary that’s the Wellington side that has no international players and that’s why they’re successful. They were only missing Ravindra, Bracewell, Conway, Sears, Milne, Blundell and Robinson.

    Cmon ND, regroup for your next game vs Auckland and give Wellington a chance of a home final!!! 😬😬😬

    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    I don't think it's impossible we beat Australia in that series. Southee/Henry/Jamieson/Sears can get the job done against a batting line up that is starting to look like it has a few weaknesses. Especially if we prepare pitches like the India tests in 2019 that have a bit of assistance for our...
