Cricket 2021: NZ in England and WTC Final
-
England are batting
Here’s our team….. New Zealand: 1 Tom Latham (captain), 2 Devon Conway, 3 Will Young, 4 Ross Taylor, 5 Henry Nicholls, 6 Tom Blundell (wk), 7 Daryl Mitchell, 8 Neil Wagner, 9 Matt Henry, 10 Ajaz Patel, 11 Trent Boult
No Jamieson or Southee winds me up considerably. I don’t think we have THAT much depth to change the team this much.

Timmy is on fire and he's surely good for three tests on the trot.

Tim will be fit as fuck, would handle it piece of piss!

Never in my lifetime have I seen 5 changes outside our pretty much first XI and thought " not too bad, that'll do". Let alone been slightly excited at the chance for a second string spinner, keeper and emerging all rounder.
Strange times, in a good way.
Rossco, I know you've done a lot for NZ cricket and you're down the list on my preferred to quaff beers with, truth is I find you a little strange, but I wish you all the best in leading our batting in Birmingham. I'd delight in your foibles being a reflection of mine and will be forever impressed if you turn on a big one in the rehearsal for our biggest one ever. God's speed to you, you champion.
C'mon boys! We see what you guys are trying to build and how you've embraced all personnel and fostered a real sense of belonging and responsibility on all squad members. It's purely and wholly the right way forward - true progress, if you will.
A living, breathing example of unity and inclusion
Kia kaha boys - give it heaps and let the chips fall where they may!
Love youse all

Complete madness. It’s not like they’ve had a heap of cricket lately.
It’s still a test match for fucks sake. Show some respect Stead. Henry is such a step down in comparison

Too many negative nellies
We're not England for fucks sake, hiding behind the apron strings of societal acceptance!
I'd rather hide behind Kyle Jamieson's bowling than Matt Henry's though...
(Anything to jinx Henry onto the Edgbaston honours list)
-
@donsteppa good jinx. Long game at play here mate, the first XI will be champing at the bit come Southampton time. A decade of professional cricket, training and playing more games every year than ever and you don't blame match practice for failing.
The boys left out ain't novices trying to find their game. Sound good?
If not, Graham Henry's 3rd game in a row downturn...

How sure are you that Kane doesn't have the final say in the team selections?

That is a pretty weak bowling attack
