    *Official* New Zealand in Zimbabwe 2025 (Tests)

    With Smith, Bracewell and O'Rourke out, how is there only a single debutant? Fisher, Lister, Duffy and Foulkes all have no caps. Even if they pick Ajaz, they still have to take two of those bowlers, don't they? Foulkes is the more like-for-life for Smith. If Duffy's coming in for O'Rourke then...

    English Domestic Season 2025

    Seems an odd signing for Essex. Hard to see how he fits into the first XI, unless someone's leaving. Even then, with Noah Thain around they must be fighting over the same slot.

    Last test you say? Quick! Dust off the bunting and start negotiations to rename one end of the ground.

    I wouldn't mind Foulkes playing - which might happen given his batting. Not that Duffy's a complete slouch mind. If Lister gets in ahead of Fisher or Duffy, that would be less satisfactory.

    ****ing oath. Sikander Raza and Blundell went to the same school of amateur pull shots and inability to read the field settings tbf.

    *Official* New Zealand in Zimbabwe 2025 (Tests)

    Gonna be a few changes for the 2nd test I guess. Who comes in for Bracewell, O’Rourke and Smith? Maybe young guns Vettori, Doull and Hadlee?

    O’Rourke off the field too. Gonna have to see some more Mitchell dobbers here methinks.

    That sounds vaguely reasonable until you remember that Nicholls had been jettisoned - his last Test was an abject outing at Mirpur in December 2023 - and Walter has brought him back into the fold.

    It was time for him to make way over a year ago. His recent form, bar a single innings, is awful.

    NZ getting what they deserve for picking chumps well past their best it seems.

    Cricket stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

    Hate to see that happen to a player. The stuff of nightmares.

    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    Why on earth would Nicholls be selected? Chapman would be a better choice. Or Abbas. Or Mariu. Or Heaphy. Nicholls just isn't good enough any more. What happens if he fills his boots here? Really addled thinking going on in that original squad. Zimbabwe have a decent chance here. There's...

    England begging for a draw, Manchester, 27th July 2025

    I reckon Stokes was pissed off because he’d injured himself again and fancied/needed an ice bath. Everything else I’ll put down to the malign influence of McCullum. I haven’t watched any of it by the way so my opinion is just my usual biased ramblings. Sounds like Crawley and Duckett are the...

    Just Stokes wanting to manage his fast bowlers workloads proactively, right?

    2024–25 NZ domestic season

    Hobart's team is a bit of a joke. 5 overseas players to CD's 1. None of whom played for these teams in their domestic tournaments.
