    Not thge score you want if you've inserted

    the number of Sunday mornings in my youth i have said that...

    Haha. How did I know you were going to say something like that. Probably because I was going to, but you were quicker (and better).

    @dogmeat said in New Zealand v West Indies:

    Doull thinks the wicket will stay the same for all of Day Two so there is still plenty of time for them to get their shit together.

    One of the Spark coms (maybe Rigor?) reckoned the grass would dry out (along with the pitch getting a bit harder and it would be easier on day two. It doesn't appear to be a minefied anyway and I'm not sure the WI are using it well.

    Curtley Ambrose would take 9-2 on that deck

    Ambrose could do that on most decks. It actually isn't doing as much as it looks like it should and I have been watching since start of play. I do think the bowling has been pretty shit though.

    Someone should start a modern bowling averages thread

    Same argument as the batting one. Pitches, bats, grounds, covers, etc.

    Just the guys running in get smacked. Too many variables to compare.

    Always good when you put the opposition in on a green top and it looks likely they will only bat once

    Latham fell for 86, Williamson 97* and Taylor 31* at stumps. 243/2, first day to us.

    Yeah but they’re at home with a load of class players and it’s also a shite WI team.

    Yep, we have discovered the winning formula at last. Get a global pandemic going then invite the world's worst teams to travel to us, infect them with Covid during quarantine, then thump then on green tops.

    I know it's hard to accept as long suffering fans but we have a class side at the moment with some genuinely world class players in the mix. Our recent test record is formidable at home. We've also made the last two CWC finals and outright won the second one, only thwarted by the ICC bringing the game into disrepute by putting nonsensical T20 rules into that CWC and that one alone (yes I will take that bitterness to my grave).

    We are way too fucking good for the WI at home. Anything other than a clean sweep should be viewed as a failure.

    Yeah all this ‘aw it’s the Black Caps’ negative talk should fuck right off.

    We’re not playing Greenidge, Haynes, Richards, Richardson, Lara and four hostile, world class quicks.

    We’re playing a brilliant all rounder and captain, a decent quick bowler and a host of journeymen.

    @MN5 Totally agree where very guilty of toll poppy syndrome. I’m just happy we have test cricket shame it’s only a 2 test series.
