Smorgasbord posted:He scored a very good 66* literally 2 innings ago, goddamn I hate our kneejerk fans. His last 10 ODI innings (since the India series, basically): 5,11,12,58,8,0,10,66*,20,0. Whopping 21 average. I don't know how kneejerk that is.

Smorgasbord posted:And if you go back 15 games he has a 30 average. A rough 10 game stretch is not grounds to ditch a guy with a career record of 3049 runs at a 37 average and 80 sr just before a world cup. Cook since Jan 1st, 2014 (format ODIs): Ave 27.52, SR 71.25 Guptill since Jan 1st, 2014 (format ODIs): Ave 28.94, SR 69.68 The entire world wanted Cook dropped as well.

Is there really that much of a home crowd in BBL? Indian fans go crazy about their IPL team but I've never seen many aussies actually care.

Davfff posted:I was playing in a game against Cricketers Club of NSW for our local Tawa team, and one of the Wellington Blazes players (our local Women's team) bowlers was playing for us. Says she's massively over-rated. Sounds like she may be jealous of a 14 year old, tbh

goatface posted:New cricinfo is so loving ugly it actually offends me. Eh, it's significantly more modern design-wise and it honestly wont take too long to get used to. The layout is confusing as gently caress though, they just threw random panels places and the same articles are on the front page multiple times for some reason.

If D/N games and also Australia didn't exist, the timing of world cup matches would be perfect for the US's east coast.

I'm glad they have a little progress bar at the bottom because otherwise how could you tell how far into the game 8 overs is.

Doctor Cave posted:The new stats graph thing they have on the bottom of player profiles on Cricinfo is really rad. I like it because it makes simple things that I often look up (stats since an arbitrary date, or in an arbitrary period) very easy, but then I'll accidentally click some part of the graph and it'll change to a completely baffling graph that I don't know how I got to.

Seems likely that NZ will rest a couple of their bowlers in each of the final two matches, though.
