Black Caps tour of India

[Crazy Horse]

I have noticed over the last couple of years O'Rourke has mopey body language, even when things seem to be going well for him. Lucky he's not trying to be an AB.

[mariner4life]

@Crazy-Horse do we still only shine one side of the ball? Or should he be involved on both sides?

He can mope about all he wants if he keeps taking wickets at the rate he is.

Imagine him and Jamieson firing at the same time, two Black Caps with sub 20 bowling averages !?!?!? Sigh, how good would that be ?

Add Sears and we have three good young seamers. If they can all stay healthy together

Jury is still out on him but the signs are promising. Let’s not go all Cam Roigard just yet.

We still have a few good years out of Henry too.

Totally. So that's 4 seamers. Hopefully Timmy makes way soon

Yeah for the good of NZ cricket I don’t really want to see him limp towards 400 test wickets. He needs to bow out.

Like after this tour

[nzzp]

fuck you fluffybunnies, I'm drunk and Henry is awesome

[nzzp]

And WOR.

WOR huh. What is he good for ... absolutely everything

[nzzp]

shit if the ball keeps bouncing we're in baby. Hard to play, particulary if it moves off the massive cracks

[nzzp]

Damn.

Fielders let that one go.

[canefan]

Lots of near misses so far. We just have to keep chipping away

[Chris B.]

Missing that runout was poor! Poor throw, poor positioning by Blundell, and Smithy is probably right about poor communication.

[nzzp]

Patel. Genuine edge ... just not to hand

[MN5]

Southees test bowling average is now 29.92. 30 is the official cut off between “Very good” and “good” for a fast bowler so he needs to stop right now.

[MN5]

Phillips on, as our number one test spinner lets hope he makes some shit happen as he often does

[Chris B.]

@MN5 I think Tim has 27 runs to play with - in which time he needs to take a wicket.

[Chris B.]

Fuck me - he's got an inside edge on that and saved by DRS.

Reiffel's having a pretty poor test.

[Chris B.]

Looks like we used all our luck on Day one and India are having all theirs now. Ball drops 6 inches short of Ravindra and goes for 4.
