Black Caps in India

@No-Quarter said in Black Caps in India:
Kane v Kohli is still no contest regardless of the results. Kane shits all over Kohli in tests, and one big score at home doesn't change that.
I agree, I think Kane is a better test batsman, but the vibe on here was Kane was going to show Kohli up in this series.

The life of a Black Caps fan is full of optimism followed by heartbreak. That shit is par for the course. But, Kane outplaying Kohli was actually a pretty logical conclusion to draw given their records. Kohli will probably score 5x tons in the 5 ODIs though.

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.

Lol 48/5, I'm out.

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..

65/6. How the fuck Macca has a job is beyond me.
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.
