[The '47ers]

How underrated is Scotty Boland, a beast!

Hard to believe the hype over a hit and giggle 60, some nice shots but will need to grow his game a lot more not to be a 30 average player, plenty of time to do it too.

Hilarious on the other side of things to hear those driving the hype train criticising Pant for playing similar

Yeah, interesting to see where he ends up. Seems like he could find a balance. I wonder how good his defence is though.

This has been a tremendous series, as evidenced by the crowds that have turned up.
Still I have no idea who will take home the Border-Gavaskar (given India will retain it if they win this to make it 2-2)
Kostas is not from any previous mold I've seen, probably Warner would be closest? Warner was also doubted/ridiculed early on but became one of our most successful test players.

Can he defend? Who knows he seems to be working on attack is the best form of defence so far.

Is the Bumrah hype warranted? he's constantly being talked up as the greatest fast bowler of all time. The Murali of quicks??

Yeeeees!

noot noot!

3-1 series win to Australia.

Possibly some changing of the guards here (someone tell Konstas not to slog at every ball).

It wont load for me but I reckon it's "the" Alana King wicket from yesterday and it was a bee-ute-ay!!!

A 16-0 win for the Aussie women (first time for an ashes whitewash) and a win for the men v sri lanka

SO all is well!

 

[globaleagle]

Looks like Aust is heading for a 2-0 series win over Sri Lanka.

Very diff looking team - still giving the good results. 🙂

Injury ravaged, just returned low key yesterday for Canterbury A and sent down 4 overs. Had consecutive stress fractures in his back. The couple of years I played with him he had stress fractures in his ankles too. Fingers crossed he gets a good run of cricket infront of him now and hasn’t dropped in pace. Always good to tell people I used to follow him with the ball and bat a spot ahead of him to give some mirage I went ok haha

Did the Kiwis have an all out Canterbury attack in O’Rourke, Henry and Jameson at the ICC championship trophy?

Not a bad effort from a club if correct having three front line paceman representing the country.

Yes they did. There is also Zac Foulkes and Henry Shipley as pace bowlers for Canterbury that have played international in the last couple of years, along with Ish Sodhi bowling spin

There was a Canterbury lineup during the recent T20 comp that had 10 players who had represented NZ, the 11th is a gun batsman destined to play in the next couple of years, and had 2 more on the sidelines not in the 11
