This is worth examining - to point to guys who have seriously under-performed with the bat. Too many one innings "wonders". ("wonder" being defined as made a few).
Rossco, Kane, Latham and Santner on the right side of the ledger.
Everyone else...shithouse.
Guptill, Munro and de Grandhomme - one score wonders.
Lift your games!!!!!

Beats me why England did not use their best bowler for his 10 overs allotment. Woakes has been brilliant all series. Wood bowled some shockers. Wonderful gutsy effort from Taylor!
I wish they could find room for Devcich in this squad, as the slow bowling options seem to prosper better than the quicks.

2/1. Sigh. Munro continues his rich vein of form. No pressure Guptill and Kane, but we are going to need hundreds from you both.
The way our middle order is going I doubt that will be enough
Only roscoe is trustworthy. One of these 3 will need to carry their bat. Maybe even two of them

OK they showed Munro's review. Dead plumb, that's Shane Watson-esque.
So not only did he get a duck, he is now also responsible for Kane being given out.
Fucking awful cricket.
After a strong start to the Summer against easybeats WI and PAK who seemed like they were on holiday, we are getting exposed by a quality side playing percentage cricket
Patience Grasshopper. Patience

Ross Fuking Taylor bitches!!!!!
Quoted because fuck yeah

@no-quarter said in England vs BCs ODI series:
Ross Taylor, take a fucking bow. One of the all time great ODI innings - 181* in a chase is absolutely insane. With an injury and no runner to boot.
We are all blessed to watch this guy play in his prime.

Not that you can replace Taylor, but who will they bring in for Chch? Chapman? Ugh.

Isn’t it good to see a series played between teams who respect each other and don’t have to resort to bully tactics and acting like classless bogans.
Why would it be any other way?
Because across the world Davey dumb dumb and the boorish Aussie team feel it's not enough to play the game well, they have to sound off and act like a bunch of assholes too

I love reading a thread after the fact
Mrs boo said some fairly unsavory things about young Henry. ... well at least she suggested he may not be good enough to win it ...
Because TSF is all about me me me Henry reminds me of a game I played for Purltaruru in Matamata...
We needed 3 to win off two overs. I was not the most renowned striker of the ball. But we had a few wickets up our sleeves (4 ish ?).
Me on strike ... our best bat at the other end ... first five balls of 2nd to last over I hit straight to fielders ... I could hear (and I fucking knew) "don't fucking take a single ... leave it to Devinder!!".
So last ball of 49th I thought fuck it. I'll swing and if I hit it we'll get two ... if I get out Devinder is on strike.
I recalled a ODI when Richard Hadlee hit over the infield on the second last ball to win a game in Aus ... I'll have a crack ... ar worst I'll get one and run out on the second ...
Swung through the line ...
... hit it over mid-on ...
... run two ... run two ...
It ran away for four (thank fuck !)
Basically I am Henry Nicholls!
