Still you have to feel a bit for Guppy, Neesham and Ferguson who weren't there. Particularly Gup, that ball terrorized him in the field for the last two overs of the final and the super over and then in the end he was the one run out.
No you don’t. If they were better test players they’d be there.

If they'd played better in 2019 we would have been dual champions....

Maybe it’s just me but a test championship is worth a fuck ton more than an ODI one. I’m happy.

Yeah. But just saying. Guppy was pants for the entire tourney, and that deflection off the bat at the death was farcical

Fair call. Both trophies would be even better !

Well CDG was in the XI so I'm not sure that was a requirement.

Which makes Kane's selection of him to bat the super over all the more strange even if his speed between wickets was a big part of it
It does go to how flaky our batting outside Kane was that tournament that there weren't any great options for that super over. Like what is Munro doing in the side if he isn't an automatic first choice in that role.

Munro had lost his position opening the batting to Nicholls a few games before the final (rightly so) so was never actually an option for the super over.

The bad thing was Munro got too much game time and by the time they gave up on him his replacement didn't have enough reps to get up to speed

Would you rather a test championship win or a 3-0 test series win in Australia?
Tough question - whichever one is in front of us at the time. First ever world champions is a special accolade though, and that is worth more than a 3-0 away against anyone.

The former. We’ve already beaten Oz in oz before. Cheers Paddles.

Shit he’s a good un. In ANY other era he’d be rookie of the year but Jamieson still pips him in my opinion. How lucky are we to have them both ?

@dogmeat said in Cricket 2021: NZ in England and WTC Final:
@mn5 very lucky but Jamieson debuted Feb 2020 so can't be rooky of this year.
I posted this and was just waiting for some pedantic prick to point this out
That’s fine, Jamieson 2020, Conway 2021….I think we can go with that.
No pressure on any newbies for 2022 huh ?
