*Official* India Tour of New Zealand 2019

Has the pitch changed direction at McLean recently? I don't remember this ever being an issue until the Super Smash game a few days ago.

 

[cnerd123]

That's the first time I've seen this happen lol

Apparently has happened before

Cricket really feels like a ridiculous sport sometimes when you cannot play for reasons such as this.

 

[cnerd123]

This is pretty hilarious tbh

 

[The Hutt Rec]

This is really ridiculous, the length of the delay. McLean Park is a shambles yet again.

 

[OverratedSanity]

How is this taking so long. Cricket is so ****ing stupid.

[The Hutt Rec]

Now a 49 over match lolllllll

 

[Moss]

Hilarious. Can remember a stoppage at the Basin in 2002 when the players were asked to go off because of shadows on the pitch and Bob Willis fuming on air at Billy Bowden's decision.

 

[Howsie]

Bracewell actually bowling well here, every right to be pissed at Latham dropping that sitter

 

[srbhkshk]

Kohli goes past Lara to become the 10th highest run getter in ODI history - 212 innings for him to 289 for Lara.

 

[Athlai]

Guptill
Young
Williamson
Latham
Nicholls
Neesham
CDG
Santner
Bracewell
Ferguson
Boult

Is that worth trying at some stage this series?

Sure, but any specific reason for not having Taylor in there?

Have a feeling with the opening situation they will take the middle ground and bring back Worker (if it comes to that).

 

[harsh.ag]

Why do NZ need both Neesham and CdG?

Bring in Bennett and you've got yourself a deal.

Want to see us work out who starts of Neesham Bracewell CDG

 

[Athlai]

Without Munro we lack a 6th bowler and Neesham/CDG and to some extent Ferguson aren’t trusted for a full 10

 

[harsh.ag]

without munro we lack a 6th bowler and neesham/cdg and to some extent ferguson aren’t trusted for a full 10

kw?

 

[Zinzan]

If Munro continues to fail, how about;

Guptill
KW
Nicholls/Taylor
Taylor/Nicholls
Latham
CDG
Neesham
Santner
Milne
Ferguson
Boult

Batting down to 8, although it does mean 10 overs is shared by CDG, Neesham and KW. The fact Neesham looks to have turned the corner a little with the ball make it seem not quite so risky.

 

[Daemon]

That's clearly not out, not sure what the debate is about
