@mn5 Yeah - thought you'd remember the incident.
Dick's name is ingrained in my memory - along with Ian Robinson of Zimbabwe!
Gillespie giving Cairns to Parore down leg.
And was he Waugh to Parore off Vettori as well?
Waugh and Gillespie - there might have been another, as well.
Sometimes it's not so much the decision as the timing of the decision in the context of the match.
In this day and age and with the technology they have at their disposal I don’t think it’s too much to expect pretty much flawless officiating.
At least you can't blame home town bias. (Umpires Cronin and Weber... looking for short runs ... Snedden ... Chappell ... underarm...)
'that mark could have come from anywhere'
Oh how a modern drs would have been a godsend for us

That was Llong wasn't it? I always read that like he has a stutter.
That was DRS too wasn't it? Didn't help much there.

Sure was DRS. That's why it was so unforgivable... And my point is the modern DRS would get a very different conclusion.
Llong I recall as well, I think you're right

Yeah, but we always get done on the way through like with the Voges "no-ball" dismissal in Adelaide.

Yesterday was the 2 year Anniversary where we were blind robbed in the ODI WC Final.
Some consolation winning the WTC.
Its nice seeing the bulk of the cricketing world agree we were robbed too, so many comments from fans all over the world saying it should have either been shared or won by us.Still hurts tho.

More than some…..I’d take the test championship over winning the pyjama tournament any day that ends in a Y.

Well the match was technically a tie and unfortunately NZ got the shit end of the stick with the way it was decided.
So yeah, saying we “should” have the ODI tournament as well makes you sound like an English Football fan.
We convincingly won the format that matters most.

The match wasn't a tie. Despite all of the technology available England were gifted an extra run for ridiculous overthrows that deflected off Stokes bat. The utterly absurd rule to decide the game on number of boundaries hit was just salt in the wound. Both the umpires and the ICC made an absolute hash of that, and brought the game into disrepute on the biggest stage. For them to wank on about it being the "greatest game ever" is just nonsense. It could have been the greatest game if they didn't completely fuck it up.
The WTC does nothing to change any of that. We should by rights be both ODI and Test champions right now.

When you put it like that you make some excellent points but NZ had to play what was in front of them and they tied. End of unfortunately. The thing that fucked it was the ridiculous boundary hit rule which if it ended in our favour would have been a really hollow victory. It’s just a damn shame the game went to this stage in the first place really.
Maybe I’m not as bitter as you guys because we won what ( in my opinion ) easily counts the most ? What the Black Caps did last month surpasses everything done before by a country mile.
Yes I will admit an ODI victory would have been bloody nice too though.

Clearly Ilford 2nd XI winning the WTC was too traumatic for him for Shane Warne to remember.

The use of "title" would indicate he's trolling but you never know with Shane. He could just be particularly stupid today.

Started reading the replies. Great fun. (Sound like us when we couldn't win the RWC...).
Wanted to post a reply along the lines of "whst was that? Sorry can't hear you over the sound of NZ being the World Test Champions" but am not sure any random Indian would get read that much by the other random Indians.

Ohhh awesome time to troll some Indians. The fact that we smacked them in the last series gives me plenty of fuel.

It doesn’t take much. Just point out Don Bradmans average compared to Tendulkars. That’s all you need to do and then get some popcorn and watch the fun. @NTA loves a bit of Indian trolling.
