    I see that everyone's favourite Sikh (Harbhajan) is critical of the doctored pitches India have used at home in the last few years because he didn't get to play on such spinner-friendly pitches. He really is a dickhead.

    Especially when it was pointed out to him that Kolkata was actually a seaming pitch. He was a great player, but a fucking moron. The press conference was great, they quoted him & Kohli got his tail up & went "WHO SAID THAT!" & they went "Harby" & he went "oh, fine, next".

    He was just about to go off then they pointed out he'd be beating up the special needs kid.

    Remember when he got TWO consecutive centuries against the BCs in 2010 ? I just about gave up on the fuckers there and then from memory.....

    I'm beginning to think the toss is rigged in India... at least it doesn't mean as much in the ODIs.

    Increasingly looks like the only thing Mike Hesson has got right in his tenure was appointing Baz captain.

    Lucky for Hesson's sake it turned out to be a big thing. Shame then that Baz had to retire..

    Just turned the cricket on

    55 for 5.

    Why do I even pretend to start to hope?

    Normal service appears to have resumed for NZ cricket after 2 years of optimism.

    65/7. Latham looking like carrying his bat.

    Macca and Hessson will no doubt be "taking the positives" from this tour once again #BlitheringFools. #CoachingAndSelectingFoodbills.

    You think we could get away without a batting coach? 🙂

    Jesus - this is a humiliation!

    Macca takes his coaching lead from the How to Bat Like Chris Martin DVD collection.

    Some of these thoughts are a bit late.
    Get farked, fark off Luke Ronchi you useless spud. Just can't bat with any responsibility whenever the situation requires it. EVER!

    Hope Tom Latham can bat through for a hundy. Just needs someone to stick around. At least we don't have Tim Southee batting today... oh wait. Fark.

    Man are we hopelessly out of form. Could be a long summer.

    @Donsteppa To be fair, google tells me he's been our batting coach for more than two years so he's been going alright for part of it. We seem to have been afflicted by numptyism for this match in particular.

    At least we're past our lowest ever ODI total - got to get past 103 to beat our worst vs India and in India.
