Black Caps v Bangladesh
-
@No-Quarter so one way or another they've seen enough of Seifert
-
@canefan I don't think he was ever a real contender. He's done pretty well in T20s this year, but Munro does well in T20s as well so I'd take that with a grain of salt.
Edit - given it's 15 to the CWC, he actually probably is in with a good shot. I'd like to see more of him in ODIs first though.
-
When do they actually finalise the CWC squad? Is it after this series?
Williamson, Astle, Boult, de Grandhomme, Ferguson, Guptill, Henry, Latham, Neesham, Nicholls, Taylor, Santner, Seifret, Sodhi & Southee is my CWC squad. If there is to be a bolter it will be Corey Anderson if he proves he is fit enough.
-
Did they move the pitch? Or put up a tarp? Or are we going to need a sunlight break again at village park?

@Hooroo and I think the innings break will be timed for the sun strike lol. They were talking about it on RS Breaky with Coney this morning.
A lot riding on this series, hoping we see Kane and Guppy put the foot down - as both have been a bit sub-par for their level of talent/consistency.
Still a number of questions to be answered too!
- All rounders outside of CdG and Neesham - who makes it?
- Spin (with all rounder overlap) Ish or Astle?
- Does Southee pull a Kyle Mills and make the squad, only to not play a match at the WC?
- Munro? yeah, nah? Seifert? ... or Nicholls?
- Will Taylor snare another century? or run himself and half the team out?
- Will the bangers go Bang!!?
Juicy stuff!
Nah, ah. That comment in the interview with JC was a theoretical along the lines of "wouldn't it be good if they could time the innings break to conincide with the sun strike". But I think the sun strike issue is likely to around 6.30pm when play in the second inings will be underway.

@shark bloody big crowd in Napier.......
Satisfactory start after losing toss. 19/2mwith both openers gone. Some lovely shots by their number 3 as he is looking ominous
Hopefully they get a decent score
Not a lot to get out of only chasing 120.. -
42/4, could be over before I get home.
-
@No-Quarter remember the Indians!!
well, not that bangers have their batting quality but stranger things have happened!
-
Henry and Boult are both real wicket takers at the top of the innings. That has to be our opening combo for the CWC, no respite particularly if the ball is nipping around a bit.
-
Bloody helk. Did not realise Astle has only bowled 35 overs in total in his ODI career. Why are people picking him the CWC squad. Flavour of the month?
-
Ferguson to Sabbir Rahman, no run, 154.9kph yorker just outside off. Looks to jam this through the off side but too late
Holy fuck that's quick.

I don't have a genuine hatiest team at the moment. Used to India for a long time but not any more.

I had love/hate for Sri Lanka when they were going through their appeal for fucking EVERYTHING stage. Mixed in with Murli owning us... good enough reason to be a bit bitter I reckon!
