Pakistan in NZ - Pyjama tour 2017/18

[JJ]

I'm not disagreeing with your sentiment, but Devecich has had opportunities in the past and failed.

That said, he will get most likely get more with his domestic form.

I prefer Devecich to Kitchen myself. But I get the frustrations selectors have with Devecich.

Chapman, Worker take your pick

Plus #3 that's just taking the piss

 

[JohnDoe]

Or have we been far too reliant on Munro and Guppie for too long?

Maybe. But in what universe is Kitchen and Bruce deserving of selection ahead of Taylor.

Oh not Worker.

Chapman, Devecich - yeah. But not Worker!

 

[JohnDoe]

Taylor giving the 1 finger salute to Hesson and Larsen. Honestly great to see.

Kitchen not imo. But they consider him a bowling option.

Bruce has earned his chances. Seriously. He just isn't taking them.

Ross was starting too slow too often. He got the memo. He's not now.

 

[JJ]

Oh not Worker.

Chapman, Devecich - yeah. But not Worker!

He can do a job

Regardless why was Ross not at #3 disgraceful

 

[ANTiLAG]

Taylor giving the 3 finger salute to Hesson and Larsen.

Taylor is now doing what they wanted him to do all along.

 

[ANTiLAG]

Regardless why was Ross not at #3 disgraceful

I'd have put him at 3.

But now Ross is blazing which he was't before and NZC get what they wanted all along. Everyone wins.

 

[JohnDoe]

Come on Bruce pull your weight. And he hits a 6.

 

[ANTiLAG]

Come on Bruce pull your weight. And he hits a 6.

He's talented. He has earned his chance. But he needs to convert more often.

 

[ANTiLAG]

Is there no hotspot today?

I dont recall it being used once.

 

[ANTiLAG]

Blundell looking for his 1 trick

 

[ANTiLAG]

Fantastic bowling Amir.

Back to his best.

 

[JohnDoe]

WTF is Blundell doing. Lacks a power game. Seifert should've been given the chance.

I'm not disagreeing with you, but the reality is Gup, KW and Kitchen lost the rrr battle.

This has been at miracle levels for overs now.

 

[JJ]

Blundell and Kitchen were inspired selections

Larsen has a real hard on for Blundell

Larsen has a real hard on for Blundell

We lose even if he hit 3 of his 5 balls for 6.

 

[JJ]

We lose even if he hit every ball for 6 before being dismissed.

So? They were both dumb selections.

Pakistan played well finally they might have beaten us anyway but that was a ridiculous lineup

Put blame where it belongs.

KW, Kitchen and even Guptil faced the most balls, and were not able to acore at the Run Rate required.

CDG - failed all round bowling middle overs and not getting a miracle batting effort that the top 3 left him with.

KW and Kitchen 25 of 33. No urgency really till Taylor came out
