Same team? Do we need a spinner?
This is the Black Caps, we always play a spinner. Always.
It’s like when you go out for a trip with the family, do you pack raincoats or jackets for everyone?
You know if you bring them it will take up space and you won’t need them.
Leave them at home and it’s guaranteed to piss down.. -

What do we expect when we play cricket in the middle of rugby season?

@Crazy-Horse I can recollect as a boy, 40 plus years ago, hearing my father and other men bemoaning March weather to being too late for test cricket 🙂

Grey as fuck and still spitting but definitely clearing.
I genuinely back this BC team to beat the Bangles even with this time lost...
At least with the toss delayed the follow on mark is reduced so if we can bat first and score decent runs we could have a chance. The Boult and Southee should have the ball hooping in these conditions.

Win the toss and both teams would have to have a bowl. New Zealand would do it so they can rip through Bangladesh, Bangladesh would do it to stop that happening.

Not a ball bowled in two days and the way some of you fellas are going on, we are somehow still a chance?
Tomorrow looks clearish, and surprisingly windy. Could be worth a bowl.

Isn't the Basin pitch a total road? There's no way there is a result assuming they get 3 full days of play. The best they can hope for is the batsmen get a chance to plump their stats
It flattens out, yeah. A bit of rain plus it does look a bit green so you never know.

In recent years I seem to recall it being juicy for a morning but if you survive into the afternoon batting conditions are perfect

What a load of rubbish. It’s how Wagner gets his wickets, so why would he stop?
I can’t imagine Kane ever saying ‘sorry Wags, you’ve got to keep the ball pitched up today, they don’t like the short stuff.’
They’re not playing under 11 c grade on a Saturday morning FFS!!!
