    @Crazy-Horse said in Cricket - NZ vs Sri Lanka:

    I wish 'they' would come up with some sort of graphic that shows field placements in real time. It could be displayed at the top left of the screen so it doesn't interfer with normal coverage. It bugs me not knowing where the field is, especially when it's hit in the air.

    You'd think this would be pretty easy with today's technology. The players would probably already all be hooked up to some sort of GPS monitoring system anyway would they not?

    Meanwhile, we're batting first again and are currently 125/2 after 23 overs.

    We lost both openers early on to be 31/2, so good recovery mission happening from our two senior pros

    Kane 52 (59)
    Rosco 46 (60)

    @Gunner yeah I am know bugger all about technology, but I would have thought it could be done. The only problem I see is that some people might find it distracting/annoying.

    According to some bloke on Cricinfo, the record is 9 held by Javed Miandad.
    Rossco is now second equal with none other than Andrew Jones

    Kane also has got 6 in a row before, and three other blokes from other countries.

    I love how we (me) question Nichols selection for so long! Perseverance has certainly paid off. So solid in both formats.

    @Hooroo I agree 100% he def showed talent right from the start but always looked that wee bit iffy. I think he's a lot more confident in his play now and is becoming downright reliable. I like how he's building partnerships and is able to tweak his pace according to the state of the game. Bloody good stuff!

    Nicholls has been superb. Taken all the pressure off Rosco and has set us up for a massive total. He's really come of age as a player in the past 12 months.

    Only 12 batsmen have score more ODI tons then Roscoe,
    Only 3 have scored more at a higher average (Kohli, Amla and ABDV)
    2 or 3 more 100's and he will be among the top half dozen of all time.

    If my maths is right. Ross is averaging 92 since the start of 2018!
