@Damo said in NZ v Pakistan:
Paddles for sure. In a class of his own as our top bowler + fulfills the all rounder role at 7 or 8.
KW is probably our best batsman but he isn't far and away our best like Hadlee was for bowlers.
I agree with picking Paddles…..
But KW is also in a class of his own.

If you're picking an all time NZ test lineup (and disqualifying the likes of Dempster who played bugger all tests), is Kane or Paddles the first name on the team sheet?
to me it's still Paddles
BUT
if for some weird reason you were only allowed to pick one, then it might be Kane. We've had some decent bowlers over the stretch. We haven't had too many other world class bats.
The only other genuinely world class bowler kept breaking. He can’t really be counted.
A fair few very good players in both disciplines though.
Our all time team is pretty much two world class players and nine very good ones.

Lol if it is an all time best test team for NZ it is irrelevant who is first picked, it’s not a team of one..
if neither are picked then you have a big problem

If it's a team of one then Paddles is the one I'd pick.

First ever non Asian batsman to achieve this. Fucken awesome.
West Indies isn't a country. Have you got the real list?

So 6 more wickets to get, are we a realistic chance of winning this?

If Sodhi keeps bowling like this then I'd say we are a shout.
Not sure about that review. Lot of turn though.
Great to see Sodhi bowling so well.

I’ve gotta say western cameramen zooming in on hotties in the crowd is slightly more entertaining than shots of Pakis drinking tea. What the fuck is that about ? Who finds that shit remotely entertaining ?
It's advertising.
They also have one for Sensodyne where they give people iceblocks
