    I take it this is just a good natured ribbing - and some cross tasman rivalry.

    Still reckon it is bad karma and jinxing us.

    I like that New Zealand pull off their biggest win against one of the strongest teams and instead of celebrating their win they try and draw illogical conclusions about how this makes them better than Australia. Guys, we basically were the ones to invent the label "South African chokers".

    Mate`I don't think - or at least I hope - there was nothing too serious about this thread. Just some banter.

    The real crux of the matter is; Does Michael Clarke have 20,000 songs on his playlist?

    Also has Mike Hussey been playing table tennis to sharpen up his game like Kane Williamson has.

    It's bull****. Blowing those bubbles mid-shot is the key factor IMO.

    Love that quote they used in the Headline. Of the myriad of problems that big Jess has had throughout his career, I wouldn't necessarily say that thinking too much has ever been one of them.

    In all seriousness, like Flem said, this is a very good Kiwi side that has been underperforming for a while (and struggling in subcontinent conditions). One look at their batting depth, Mills and Vettori performing like world-class ODI bowling allrounders for a while, and the improvement of Southee into a proper strike + death bowler makes them a very dangerous side indeed. That they are performing at this level should not surprise anyone too much. They have certainly picked the right time to lift their performance levels to match their ability.

    It wasn't too long ago they were the second ranked side in the world and consistently either beating us or giving us a serious run for our money - back when we were awesome.

    Flem has indeed returned to the fold - don't leave our side next time Flem. We still always had the same team. We basically live and die off the back of Ross Taylor. When he went out of form we died. He is slowly getting it back and we are starting to pick up. Just need Styris to perform and McCullum to have a lucky day and we should be good to go.

    Your unintelligent comments are banned in this thread.

    Here is proof Kyle Mills can walk on air.





    Because water is more dense than air, Kyle Mills has exceeded Jesus's feats and will now be taking over Jesus's position as Son of God.
