Cricket 2021: NZ in England and WTC Final
-
Some info about the final:
When is the WTC final and where?
From June 18-22 in Southampton.What type of ball will be used?
Not only will they be playing at a neutral venue, governed by neutral match officials, but India and New Zealand will also utilise a neutral ball - Dukes, which is used for first-class cricket in England. Usually, India play at home with the SG Test while New Zealand operate with the Kookaburra. The Dukes conventionally has been found favourable by bowlers for its rich seam and even got a thumbs up from Indian captain Virat Kohli as well R Ashwin in the recent past.What happens in case of a draw/tie/match being abandoned?
In case of each of those scenarios, both teams will be declared joint-winners.How do you determine a draw?
If less than 60 minutes have been accounted for as lost playing time and there is no result in sight at the end of the fifth day, then teams can agree for a draw.What is lost playing time?
If there are more than 60 minutes of lost playing time, then those overs would be bowled from the start of the Actual Last Hour. The close of play would accordingly be rescheduled to 60 minutes from the start of the lost playing time. If there is any interruption during this period, then an over would be cut every four minutes. Any time lost due to interruption during the rescheduled period would be added to the reserve day.Is there a reserve day?
Yes, June 23 will be the reserve day. The sixth day will comprise maximum of 330 minutes or 83 overs plus the actual last hour. The reserve day will kick in only if the time lost during regulation play on each day is not made up on the same day. For example, if you lose an hour of play due to rain and then make it up by the end of the same day, then that is zero net time lost. But if you lose an entire day's play due to rain and then make up, say, only three hours over the remaining four days, then you are short of net playing time for the match. That is when the reserve day kicks in.What is the prize money for the finalists?
The prize money will be announced in due course. At the 2019 World Cup, winners England pocketed US$ 4 million while runners-up New Zealand took home half that amount. The losing semi-finalists took home US$ 800,000 each. At the 2016 men's World T20, winners West Indies cashed in US$ 1.6 million while runners-up England took home US$ 800,000. The losing semi-finalists picked US$ 400,000 each. -
@siam thanks fella,
that is the most complex explanation of a reserve day I have seen.
Why don't they just say 'we're going to have 30 hours of cricket/450 overs'
-
Due to injuries and the ECB's stated policy of rest and rotation, England's 16-man squad to take on New Zealand features a number of players at the start of their Test careers. Three are uncapped, with at least two likely to make their debuts over the next couple of weeks, while seven members of the group have played five Tests or fewer.

So looks to me like Conway debuting and opening and one of Santner/CDGH to miss out....but then if both play and Henry misses out we have a bloody strong tail !
We’re up against one very good batsmen, a few journeymen, two ancient pacemen and a bunch of unknowns, surely we got this ?

Apparently one of Henry and Jamieson to miss out although they could be looking to pull a surprise.
KW has talked about the need for a spinner (although god knows why Santner is there then) and that CDGs bowling style suits the pitches. -

KW mentioned specifically that they are finding the pitches a little softer with less bounce so I wonder if that is playing on their minds.

That really would be a strange decision. He'll need the time with a duke as well in different conditions.

I'd be going Henry as 12th man anyway. Not sure that he offers something different to the England bats.

Joe Root aside ( and he isn’t as good as KW ) they just scream ordinary test players to me. If Henry plays he could well roll them cheaply.

@nzzp i can't believe they canned the boundary count back clause!!
That was worth a cool 2 million US !!

Any NZer who's at this week's test should march into the Long Room, plonk their arse on Ranjitsinhji's chair, and demand beer paid for from the $2 million "Free Beer for New Zealanders Fund".
Which frankly should happen in every pub in England for the rest of our lives.
Except for me. Because I've never counted that as a loss.

@dogmeat I just noted those TAB odds - MN5 evidently hasn't yet got around to putting his house on the Black Caps.
England $1.85, NZ $2.80.
Are NZ punters still living in the past, or just anticipating disappointment?

Perhaps still some scars of the last away Test series.
