Jesus fucken wept. I'm just watching Martin bowling half-trackers downwind at 128kph. Retire, you fuck. And while i'm at it, when did Southee lose 10kph? I see someone's turned him into another NZ "military medium".
The best thing about Finance Minister Bill English\'s latest Budget is that it does finally signal a much greater role for the private sector in the New Zealand economy. And another step along the way to extract this country from the political cul-de-sac in which Helen Clark\'s Labour Government parked us.
And while we're at it - how tactically inept are ODI strategists? At the end of the 39th over, i said to the missus that it would be a great time to use the batting power play. Why would you leave it until you only have bowlers out there batting - it's far better to use it while you had two batsmen at the crease. And lo and behold, Yardy gets out slogging in the deep, where he may have got away with it if the field was up.
Agree for once.The 50 over game will be gone in the next 5 years though which is a shame IMO because I cant stand 20/20.The only consolation will be that there will be more test cricket.
The downwind speedo is wrong, Umar Gul bowling from that end is showing as 130. He cracks mid 140s easy. It also showed Southee as pretty much slower downwind than he was into the wind.
i had kinda hope speakman had died, what a pity
