ICC Champions Trophy 2025

Watching the highlights from the 2000 Champions Trophy and the bowling effort from the Kiwis was appalling.
Tendulkar & Ganguly though, what an opening combo.@1kiwi The run outs were crucial. Particularly of Tendulkar who could have put the game out of reach the way he was playing.
The innings by Cairns in the chase was world class. At that period he was pretty much the number 1 all-rounder in the world and he lived up to that despite playing the game with a knee injury. Great moment in NZC history.

Batting first. Let’s fcking goooo.
Henry ruled out which is a big loss.
Nathan Smith comes into the side. Bonus is that he’s a slightly better batter than Henry.

Debatable. Henry can belt a few sixes and at this stage in their careers is a MILES better bowler.
Huge loss, Smith needs to step up ! Our attack looks far more popgun with him not there.

All 3 of the seamers have to step up. O'Rorke has been very good at times, he had a good tour in India didn't he? One or two of the three of Smith, Kylo and O'Rorke have to rock it, and the third has to at least be solid

Let’s just get runs on the board first. 4/0 off the first over.

Not a lot of grass on that wicket.

Should have been caught, shit fielding even if reaction time was low

BCs 47/0 off 6.3 overs. Ravindra dropped by Shami on 29.
Young 11 off 18
Ravindra 29 off 21 -

Should be good for spin, hopefully isn’t as two paced as when we first played on it

O'Rourke reminds me of early career Henry, his stock delivery is very good and when the ball is new or there's assistance, he's dangerous, but doesn't seem to quite have the variations that you really need in short form cricket. Hopefully they'll come with time.
