Blackcaps v Sri Lanka

@mariner4life said in Blackcaps v Sri Lanka:
KW is not only our best ever batsman, he's now seriously in the conversation for our best player ever
And I never thought there would ever be a conversation
A couple of seasons ago Kane scored 90 odd against Sri Lanka off 90 odd deliveries. Normally when you see that kind of strike rate you think about aggression and risks and hitting over the top. But it wasn't. It was zero risk, control, placement and precision. When he got out, there was a few seconds of silence as everyone (opposition, commentators, crowd) was shocked because he'd just looked so unstoppable. It's probably the best innings I've watched in full myself by any batsman.

Partnership 15th on all time 3rd wicket ranking.
But still some distance to get to the best for NZ v SL ...

Partnership 6th on NZ all time list, and gunning for higher.

Would they be if they didn't survive the dropped chances?

Nicholls scoring a double ton is downright hilarious

Does Nicholls get another shot ?
Unfortunately he probably will, and he’ll probably get a hundy which means we’ll be stuck with him for at least another 12 months.

Nicholls 2 out of top 5 both with Kane ...lol -
Michael Bracewell out of the ODI series, replaced by Rachin Ravindra.
TSF's favourite Bracewell has been picked up by RCB in the IPL, replacing Will Jacks: https://www.hindustantimes.com/cricket/michael-bracewell-replaces-injured-will-jacks-in-rcb-squad-for-ipl-2023-101679121180041.html
His ODI 140 (78) in India in January probably helped...!

David Warner and henry Nichols
Guys scoring double hundreds this summer who should still get rissoled

Feel sorry for Nicholls.
Scores 200 and then takes nothing but shit.
