Black Caps - Bangladesh tour 2021

[Rapido]

Disagree with the criticism of the first 2 wickets, but that by Tom was a bit silly v an offie, at this stage.

We were going well. Only need a hundredish.

Needed to keep ticking it over until about the 15th.

He was under no pressure. Now Nicholls gone. We are going down

[Rapido]

Ugh, should be Blundell before CdG.

Ha, doesnt matter.

[canefan]

Hopefully that's the last we see of Colin.

Na he'll play all 5, plus 3 Pakistan ODIs. The only other options on tour are trailenders.

Ah maybe Doug actually.

Message for CDG

[Rapido]

Really, really poor by Tom. I reiterate. Hard to get in on this wicket. He'd got there.

The 2 subsequent are just 2 new batsmen exposed to good spin bowling, that happens.

[Donsteppa]

Just saw a tweet claiming CdG’s batting average in his last nine T20I’s is 3.33.

[canefan]

Stick a fork in us

[delicatessen]

Good catch by the fiz

[Sprinko]

Was about to say T20 WC will be CDG’s swan song if he makes it that far, but of course he wasn’t selected for it in any case.
Been a legend, and may play a few more tests this season, but Father Time says Ciao Bella

[LABCAT]

Man, watching Patel bowl I wish we had another spinner. We're in the game but still need 6 overs out of Bennett, Tickner and Cdg which is a scary thought.

[LABCAT]

Tickner just his first over of the game which was probably the worst by any bowler in the game. Yet somehow he only gave away four runs and we got run out.

[delicatessen]

Made it to the last over. Lasted 1 ball.

[Sprinko]

@labcat Todd Astle had better bowl verrrrrrry well in the PAK series to justify his selection over Ajaz for the World Cup

You're definition of legend is obviously a lot broader and more generous than mine.

By your reckoning how many legends has NZC had - 200 - 300?

His mullet was sensational, and gets legendary status

Seriously, though, he was a key cog in our team for a few years. Did plenty, but not sure was a 'legend'.

[Sprinko]

Culture/Cult legend, not skills/stats legend sure!
