Weāre up against one very good batsmen, a few journeymen, two ancient pacemen and a bunch of unknowns, surely we got this ?
MODS Ban this fluffybunny
Hubris and NZ Cricket have a long time love affair
Itās been a long time since weāve been the Black Craps. I stand by my post.
You clearly aren't as damaged as the rest of us.
So take back, take it back, fucking take it back! Quivering behind one of 3 sofas now.
Oh Iāve had as much damage as all of you believe me.....
Heres a scorecard that made me cry.

It'll be interesting to see the off side fields and bowling plans to Sibley. He doesn't at all look like he's set up to play off side. Infuriating. Ollie Pope is a very good bat. Their pace bowling attack is also very good. Wood shouldn't be underrated.
š¤ probably run out of curses....

2004 -"best team to ever leave NZ" Oh how we were going to smack the Poms.
Lost by 9 7 and 4 wickets
They were in all those games and ahead going into the fourth day in the first and third tests.
Lost Bond before the tests, Vettori after the first test and then Martin and Mills both broke down in their first spells of the final test.
In hindsight it wasn't a bad effort given what that English team became.

@rotated Exactly
We should never total up the poultry as history tells us we are masters at inventive ways to fuck up
Youāre certainly not saying anything thatās not wrong, but I really think this team is different.
Think of a Warriors fan saying āThis is our yearā but actually meaning it.

Please God - NO!
Someone give me a gun
If Iām wrong you can abuse me and call me names online, if Iām right then we triumph. Win Win.

Canāt wait to see Conway get to show his worth at Test level. Hopefully he takes this opportunity with both hands, arguably the best batsmen in NZ atm with Williamson out of form lately.

What a ridiculous call. How is KW out of form exactly ? Have you seen how he did last summer ? Is he still not the highest ranked test batsman in the world ?
I think Iād also mention the rest of the top six before bestowing this sort of hyperbole on a guy who has never played test cricket.
Still completely unproven at that level.

Fair enough, I should have phrased that better, I was referring to recent international matches Conway has been involved in. He stood out and performed better than anyone else, am I not wrong? Was meant to say the most in form player, not the best.
Obviously you canāt compare him to the test lineup but he looks to have all the tricks in the book to do very well in the longer form of the game.
Canāt wait to see him work wonders alongside Williamson in years to come.

Ha the first part of your post was fine, you shoulda just quit after the comma
Iām just as excited to see what he brings to the table, hoping for great things. Iām possibly a bit worried that heās being shoehorned to open but then that never did Justin Langer any harm.
-
@mn5 haha for sure. Feel for Blundell a little because heās been fairly solid as an opener but I guess he will jump into Watlingās spot when he hangs up a the gloves.

Dare I say it NZ cricket has ādepthā......
Young could take a middle order spot once Taylor retires and Iād imagine Nicholls goes to four in the order.

@mn5 it certainly bodes well for the Black Caps going forward. We also have Ravindra coming through aswell who will be a huge asset when he eventually gets an opportunity. Almost too much talent to choose from, a great headache to have for NZ cricket.
