    We had a player finish on 112* chasing 235 to win a 50 over match, and still somehow failed to win...

    What a fucking shower. Nicholls must be one of those guys who the coach just doesn't seem to want to drop. Who the fark do we have that can step up? He wasn't the only guilty party though. Appalling lack of self discipline for the second match running

    In order
    Guptill: Awful shot, had he not been watching the England innings?
    Munro: 49 runs but so so lucky, should have gone early on when he was batting like a demented earth or.
    Chapman: Stay calm it's a bloody 50 over game.
    Latham: Missed a straight one.
    Nicholls: Struggling to think of any top order batsman missing the ball by that much.
    CdG: Initially i thought good shot when mid-on is up. Impossibly dumb.
    Satnav: Actually played the situation, he's averaging 150 in the series with 1 unlucky run out.
    KW: Superb and would have brought it home with just a little more support. Will be annoyed by penultimate ball, full toss he just needed to get under to lift over Root.

    Just reading this thread now as I only saw the last 30 mins. I was hoping that the ND boys would bring us home but not to be.

    The only good news I was hoping to hear this morning was that Nicholls had been shown the door. What a complete waste of oxygen.

    I think Worker is injured as I read he would have been the injury replacement for Williamson/Taylor ahead of Chapman.

    I don't reckon Kane will be too disappointed, because if The Grade Cricketer has reminded us of anything (and it has), it's that a hundred in a losing side is the ultimate goal of any cricketer.

    When looking at his average and his test tons, no1 will look back at whether they won or not..

    So we are having a bowl after winning the toss.

    We have never lost at Uni Oval apparently. That's neat!

    We seem intent on breaking that run

    David Lloyd is by far my favourite commentator. He is just so funny

    I like him and Nasser. Better than the fawning Mark Nicholas

    I find Nasser as boring a commentator as i found him a batsman, but Bumble is class

    Anything is better than Mark Nicholas

    We've nabbed one, and dragged the run rate back.

    Actually Styris was a handy 10.

    Played for Putaruru against him for Hamilton Old Boys in the mid 90s.

    Nasser is an arrogant shit stirring bunny of the super fluffy variety.

    And if he refers to it being winter again I'll... I'll ... I'll post my indignation on TSF.

    Nice to see we are playing in the confidence of their top players before the test series.
