Black Caps in India

@Chris-B. looked it up for ya mate: sth africa won the 5 game ODI series 3-2, every game won by the team winning the toss... they played the ODIs before the tests though, so obviously decided at that point it was better to win the toss from now on...

So the Indians have won nine tosses in a row at home? Aren't the odds of that about 1/500?
I'd usually just accept the statistical anomaly, but since India,Oz and England so brazenly stole cricket, I'd think cheating at the toss would be a mere bagatelle!

In Kane we trust.

@gollum It was a mercy killing. Probably should have batted Ronchi at five since Coriander Son isn't exactly in form either.
Luke Ronchi is a fluffybunny who needs to fuck right off. He is well past his use-by date. He brings nothing, and everytime we need him to be reliable the do the right thing, he fucks it up. Every fuckin' time.
I went early on Southee last time, but christ, get him in there.

Can Devcich go bananas? does he open in T20 for some one.
This is a bloody capitulation. We should've made 300 ffs. -
@westcoastie I'm gonna say no.

@Bones this is fuckin' ridiculous. Boy have we been found out on this tour. Bring back BMac
Time to clean out some chaff and find us the following:
a solid, skillful opening batsman (we don't need rip/shit and bust, we need to bat solid)
a Williamson clone.
a wicket keeper.
actual wicket taking bowlers - wheres Milne and McClenaghan?its going to be some lean years...

Yeah cause his 30 off 15 balls would have made all the difference...
And to get it we would have dropped Latham. If Baz is there Lathams not.

Wow. If it weren't for Kane, and his back up Latham, that would be a very, very sad scoreboard. What the fuck is up with Guptill and Taylor? And our middle order sucks. Santner used to be good for 30 odd runs, but he isn't adding much lately either. After some decent form in the tests, Ronchi has gone back to shit. And if Anderson isn't bowling, he shouldn't be in as a batsman.
No pressure Henry and Boult, but help us. You're our only hope.
