    New Zealand A Tour of India and Sri Lanka

    New season ****ness I guess, but as you say not A standard. Might have been a little closer if they didnt make so many drops and no balls. The bowling line up looks strong, I'm not sure what the pitch is like but that attack (minus Kuggs) is our next of the line for the top team. The batting...

    ***Official*** New Zealand in Bangladesh & Sri Lanka 2013

    Jeez I hate players like Sodhi and Latham in the test squad. Sure, they are talented, but let them build up experience and a half decent bloody domestic record before throwing them in the team before guys who actually have earnt their way through state cricket. TBH I would go Ronchi and Patel...

    New Zealand A Tour of India and Sri Lanka

    Yeah agree here, no Raval and we have Devcich in the touring team :S WTF!! A 24yo opener with an average close to 40 in NZ is very rare. I hope he can push on upwards with Auckland this year and prove he is a genuine option. Him and Rutherford should be opening on this tour imo. Rutherford has...

    ***Official*** New Zealand in England series 2013

    Nuffy Ellis in the squad but no Matt Henry (easily the best limited overs bowler in the country this season), what a crock of ****. Watling missing out is pretty harsh. Franklin Elliott Ellis God we need some all rounders, these guys are the weakest spot in our team (although Franko there...

    God Fultons shot was awful, just lost a wicket, and with Canterbury collapsing like a bitch this year, dumb. Now they are in big trouble on a post stamp ground! need at least 250 for Henry to bowl them out..

    Jesse Ryder Seriously Injured during attack at Christchurch bar

    More and more information coming out, makes me feel sick. He was attacked twice; Jesse Ryder was attacked twice in quick succession, suffering serious head injuries in the second part of what a witness called a 'Jesse hate fight'. Ryder is now in a critical condition and in an induced coma in...

    Should be going to England for ODIs only I reckon. Dont pick him for the T20s though... He would hoop the ball over there. Would love to see a bowling squad of; Neesham McCullum Southee Mills McCleneghan Milne Henry Boult (if there is space, dont rate him with the white ball atm, should be...

    2 sweet Jinx's in one page. Hardly uncommon in NZ cricket though is it. C'mon Henry, another 6 for please.

    come on 240+. Golden boy Henry there, he can bring some pain in the last few if he sticks around.

    ***Official*** England in New Zealand series 2013

    What a match, going to be an amazing finish!! Broad can hold the bat, I'm sure he wont give his wicket away too easily. Anderson and Panesar though, if we have 20 overs to bowl at them I'd be pretty confident!

    ***Official*** England in New Zealand series 2013

    Watling out, declare I reckon. 500 would be nice, but to give the guys a bit of extra time to bowl them out is needed, just in case. Ah, Cricinfo saying they have declared. Good move McCullum, should be an epic day and a half. Cook and Trott need to be there tomorrow morning if they have a...

    ***Official*** England in New Zealand series 2013

    NZ need to be ruthless here, great start, really need to keep batting. Even if the run rate is low, who cares. Grind it into the ground! BTW, on Cricinfo people are complaining about the pitch. FFS NZ fans are tough at giving credit to the Blackcaps. It might be flat, but credit when it's due...

    Yeah when he played for NZ he was bowling high 130's, I was thinking late 120's when I've seen him elsewhere. His batting has a pretty high ceiling also, should go over to England as an all rounder. Didn't get bowled enough when he played for NZ btw. McCullum with his Franklin loving..

    ***Official*** England in New Zealand series 2013

    Yeah no play today guys, looks misty as **** out there. In regards to Southee, being at the game I can say it was a horrible shot. For the context of the game, it was a shocker. Southee ---> No 10 if he bats like that. Martin should be 8, Wagner 9. You cant have your number 8 going for wild...
