NZ Super Smash 20/20
-
It was a gosh awful match for spectators at Bay Oval last night. ND opener batted like it was a test match and never gave his team a chance in a 14 over dash.
Meanwhile the Big Bash is always good viewing. Paddy Dooley is so watchable. Will be a superstar soon... And Fraser McGurk is unreal as a boundary fielder. The NZ comp is way below in quality currently.

Yes I have had a bit to with Paddy and Ben McDermott in the HH.
Both came through the Qld u/17 and u/19 state rep teams I have coaching gigs with.
Paddy’s Dad was a decent cricketer and is still the club president at Wests. -

Yep quite a few I have actually steered a couple of them back to NZ.
Between you and me I will still do that . -

Between you and me I will still do that .I reckon it could be a good career move for eligible players. I would love it if we snagged a good one off the Aussies.

Yeah, great viewing watching a team get all out for 15, that's the most one sided game in the history of T20. At least the match at Bay Oval was a reasonably close one.
The Super Smash is every bit as good as the Big Bash, if not better!

Watching the Kings for the first time in a while. Foulkes is an interesting bowler. I haven't seen inswing like that since, jeez, Lance Cairns? He looks very awkward for the batters. I hear he can hold a bat too.

Yeah he made 34 last game looked useful with the bat,Could be the new Boult the way he swings the ball both ways.

You have to admire a guy like Cairns for having the legacy he does when he averaged 16 with the bat.

I wondered if he could swing it both ways. What I saw today he got either late in swing or the ball went straightish.

@Crazy-Horse
Canterbury have a couple of decent young quicks in Zac Foulkes who is 20 and Will O'Rourke the 21 year old. -

Big, but not only factor. Others include (but not limited to):
- Couple of big hits in THAT Eden Park ODI
- hitting it over the stand at Carisbrook
