    Wow, Javed Miandad picked himself.

    He's got a point, after our 3 best batsman we really should have 3 more best batsman waiting. Any team that relies on their best 3 batsman to score most of their runs will be in it trouble any time their best 3 batsman don't score most of their runs.

    Judging a skier.

    Judging a skier? I'd say overall form, pace down the mountain, control in the turns.

    Agree but theres plplenty of consistency he can add to his game too. The calculation relies on him scoring about runs per test, which should be achievable over a decent period for a world class batsman in any sort of form. Unless his current form is pure fluke then theres no reason to think he's...

    Was playing around with some stats this morning, wondering whether McCullum has enough left in his career to become our top run scorer. Interestingly found than if he can maintain equivalent form to what he has enjoyed for the last 2 years he will overtake Fleming with almost identical stats...

    Agree with this. SL were never really in it today, even if Sanga got 100 they still needed 300 from somewhere. He got 200 in the 1st and they still only got 350. Sorry Blocky, I think you're miles off. Understandable if you're a long time NZ follower but this is a different team to what we're...

    Not sure where you're going with this, do you actually think Sri Lanka will win?

    It doesn't sound hard, but history strongly suggests that it's a hell of a lot harder than you think.

    ***Official**** Sri Lanka in New Zealand 2014/2015

    All of your points are valid but I think they all point to a draw not Sri Lanka winning. None of those batting feats were with any kind of run rate pressure on. I think you're right, they wpull probably have a Crack at 150 with 300 to go but to get there they'd have to score 100 a session until...

    ***Official**** Sri Lanka in New Zealand 2014/2015

    Anyone who thinks the declaration was early is dreaming. As far as I can make out, only one team has ever chased 350 or more at a run rate greater than 3.6. If SL can pull off one of the greatest chases ever then it won't be the fault of the declaration. Statistically I would guess that the...
