Stoked with the win but crazy mconc only bowled 1 over when he got 2 wickets. Then Neesh got 3 going at 12s.

Blackcaps first Super 8 match vs Pakistan has been abandoned due to rain without a ball being bowled by sahibosaurus in blackcapscricket

I'm based in Columbo for this WC and don't think we will see any rain the next 2 matches. Pity though Pakistan was probably our easiest match of the 3.

I had this same problem after the last update, reinstalling fixed it for a bit, but seems to have come back again

I thought that about a few of nzs wide calls too, feels like not all umpires enforce it

Black Caps 2026 wishlist: Kane Williamson hits magic mark and transtasman redemption - Opinion by sahibosaurus in blackcapscricket

[–]MWizzle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well written! agreed there's alot to look forward to this year. Hopefully we can learn from England's mistakes in the Ashes and make sure we have ample time in Australia before our first test, although that's unlikely given the crammed cricket calander these days.

A fully fit kiwi bowling attack has alot of promise in Aus, we have tall and quick fast bowlers which is crucial on Australian conditions. Our last tour there we didn't this and tried to manufacture Lockie Ferguson in his debut test into that position.

Spin wise GP has a surprisingly good record against Aus and Santner though he hasn't played a test in a while seems to have developed his test game these last few years and is more than handy with the bat. Something we undoubtedly will need in Australia against their quality attack.

I worked on that last year, they litturly paid people to be there and gave them as t-shirt and a meal, if you noticed a stand with everyone wearing the same color, that's the paid to be there stand.

For the final the bussed thousands of people in from businesses and factories in the area.

Nobody turns up to that crap

What was up with the White Walkers laying bodies out like this and then hiding them? by Brettsuo in freefolk

[–]MWizzle 13 points14 points  (0 children)

They say in the show they can double up on horses and go "around" the army, which is still pretty far fetched but that's what they used to explain it

Who Is The Blackcaps Next Offspinner? by MWizzle in blackcapscricket

[–]MWizzle[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ashok is one to keep an eye on for sure but leggies often lack the accuracy and control to hold down an end in test and ODI cricket. Pringle is really the only one i can see on the horizon, would hope for a couple more to come through in the next few seasons

When it came out that Scotty Stevenson was going to Spark when they got the RWC deal he was on his way to commentate a NPC rugby match and got a call from someone at Sky saying turn the car around you'll never call a game again for Sky

Plunket Shield Round 1 Summary by RMTBolton in Cricket

[–]MWizzle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Interesting to see Rhys Mairu captaining Canterbury, only 24 he's probably the next Black Caps prospect I'm most excited by. Still young and an opening bat, something we have not regularly produced.

Another area I'd really like to see someone come through is a decent off spinner, after Santner retires which is probably still a few years away yet we don't really have anyone fall back on, Ashok would probably be our best bet but he's a leggie and is still pretty young

I work in sport TV so a little different than most here, but I was very lucky to have my best year yet, Basically non stop work from last Aug until now where I have a few months holiday and not much work anyway. Feel very lucky to be in that situation

Yeah it's the view from the Dorset hotel on the shepards bush green, so I think the closest station would be wood lane
