Ewar Woowar posted:Yeah Taylor is legitimately retarded but, despite the slight slump he's in at the moment, he's still a great player. He had a pretty run last season in NZ, batted really well against the Windies. just had a bad time this season, which he seems to be compounding with some bad shot selection and spilling catches while fielding etc.

Ah yes let's go to the cricket with a white sheet over our heads, no way that can be misinterpreted. Perhaps we can also have a discussion about who wants some kfc at the time.

The only way nz is going to stop Afridi from getting a hundred is to get the other players out around him.

I like how the commentators have been spinning Guptil as being in the team as a specialist fielder instead of opening batsman. It doesn't hurt that he has taken more catches than runs he has scored.

Smorgasbord posted:You're right of course, there is (sadly) absolutely nothing unusual about a sports broadcaster being utterly incompetent at their job and the insinuation that she sucked any more dick than the likes of Mark Nicholas was uncalled for. Her job is to do the human interest cutaway talk to fans in the crowd segment. She does that part as well as could be expected. Whether such segments have any place in the coverage is another matter entirely. But at least she isn't Craig McMillan or Mark Richardson arguing with Scott Styris. We really need the World Cup to start so we can talk about that instead of arguing over this.

The Rabbi T. White posted:Guptill: only ever scoring runs when they literally don't count. If a match doesn't count, do dodgy book-keepers still take bets on it? Do they offer money to players for making unexpected results happen?

Watching the score updates for the NZ-SA Match assumed the pitch must be a belter. Thinking NZ probably needed another 20 or so runs. Check the score just now SA is 32/4 in reply.

England has not had a hilarious capitulation in the first few overs. Looks like they have this one quite comfortably.

They will also give them automatic qualification to the final since they had to miss all of the round robin games.

mottbag posted:Anyone know why NZ haven't been playing McClenaghan? Milne seems okay, but I've been more impressed with McClenaghan in the past. General thought seems to be McClenaghan or Boult as both are left arm seamers to open with and take wickets. Given Boult's form it is hard to justify swapping them.
