We're going 26 00:01:50,293 --> 00:01:53,813 Speaker 3: to inflict some of the Pricton patrons again to the 27 00:01:53,933 --> 00:01:57,493 Speaker 3: music of me and my cousins. So that's that's quite 28 00:01:57,533 --> 00:02:01,093 Speaker 3: a sad thing to say, but never mind, we'll get 29 00:02:01,133 --> 00:02:01,453 Speaker 3: through it. 30 00:02:01,733 --> 00:02:03,373 Speaker 2: Goodness. So they that old down there. 31 00:02:04,533 --> 00:02:10,493 Speaker 3: Oh yes, mate, they wheel them in. Yeah, and you know, 32 00:02:11,013 --> 00:02:13,053 Speaker 3: I know quite a lot of them personally. 33 00:02:15,573 --> 00:02:18,653 Speaker 2: That's good. Yeah, Well, let's get down to pick them 34 00:02:18,653 --> 00:02:22,493 Speaker 2: for that on this coming Friday. But let's gelibrate a 35 00:02:22,653 --> 00:02:25,613 Speaker 2: champions trophy. And we'll hear Jerry's point of view in 36 00:02:25,653 --> 00:02:27,973 Speaker 2: just a moment. I think they're always going to be 37 00:02:28,013 --> 00:02:30,253 Speaker 2: outside us to win the final, but they had moments 38 00:02:30,293 --> 00:02:33,173 Speaker 2: when it became a real chance that we could win 39 00:02:33,213 --> 00:02:37,053 Speaker 2: the one million US dollars that was at stake for 40 00:02:37,373 --> 00:02:40,173 Speaker 2: second place, let alone the two million for first place. 41 00:02:40,733 --> 00:02:43,693 Speaker 2: A chance to discuss those high points in the moment. Firstly, though, 42 00:02:43,853 --> 00:02:46,493 Speaker 2: a final assessment from the skipper. 43 00:02:47,053 --> 00:02:48,733 Speaker 4: Yeah, I guess it's kind of a bit a sweet 44 00:02:48,733 --> 00:02:51,533 Speaker 4: at the end. You know, I think we came up 45 00:02:51,533 --> 00:02:55,573 Speaker 4: against the good side in the final, but yeah, I think, 46 00:02:56,773 --> 00:02:59,213 Speaker 4: you know, we challenged in there at times throughout this game, 47 00:02:59,253 --> 00:03:01,693 Speaker 4: which was which was pleasing. I think there was probably 48 00:03:01,973 --> 00:03:05,053 Speaker 4: a couple of small moments where we let it I 49 00:03:05,093 --> 00:03:09,013 Speaker 4: guess get away from us. But yeah, credit for incredibly 50 00:03:09,053 --> 00:03:10,813 Speaker 4: proud of this group the way we've kind of gone 51 00:03:10,853 --> 00:03:13,533 Speaker 4: about it throughout this tournament. You know, we've had a 52 00:03:13,573 --> 00:03:15,773 Speaker 4: mix of kind of experienced players but a few younger 53 00:03:15,773 --> 00:03:20,533 Speaker 4: players in the squad. So yes, it's it's been. It's been, 54 00:03:20,773 --> 00:03:23,813 Speaker 4: I guess an easy one to captain, different guys stepping 55 00:03:23,853 --> 00:03:26,893 Speaker 4: up at different times throughout the tournament, which has been outstanding. 56 00:03:26,893 --> 00:03:29,653 Speaker 4: And we came up against a very good team today. 57 00:03:30,693 --> 00:03:33,133 Speaker 4: You know, we're in the game for most of it, 58 00:03:33,253 --> 00:03:36,493 Speaker 4: but it was kind of we probably left maybe twenty 59 00:03:36,573 --> 00:03:39,253 Speaker 4: runs out there with the bat and then I think 60 00:03:39,413 --> 00:03:42,253 Speaker 4: way kind of wrote Shama played kind of took it 61 00:03:42,293 --> 00:03:44,693 Speaker 4: away from us a little bit. I think there's probably 62 00:03:44,693 --> 00:03:49,053 Speaker 4: a little bit more turned second innings. I think, you know, 63 00:03:49,453 --> 00:03:51,893 Speaker 4: it was a pretty consistent pitch all the way through. 64 00:03:51,933 --> 00:03:54,053 Speaker 4: I think, you know, I guess coming off the semi 65 00:03:54,053 --> 00:03:57,133 Speaker 4: final where we feel like we can if we get 66 00:03:57,133 --> 00:03:59,653 Speaker 4: a total, we can squeeze teams, and we did that 67 00:03:59,693 --> 00:04:03,693 Speaker 4: for I guess a majority of this game. But yeah, 68 00:04:03,733 --> 00:04:05,893 Speaker 4: I think outside of the power play with the bat, 69 00:04:06,013 --> 00:04:08,613 Speaker 4: we kind of lost a couple pretty quickly and then 70 00:04:08,613 --> 00:04:10,453 Speaker 4: it was it looked it was definitely a hard look 71 00:04:10,453 --> 00:04:13,493 Speaker 4: at the start on and then yeah, I think we 72 00:04:13,613 --> 00:04:16,453 Speaker 4: probably left maybe twenty five out there and then they 73 00:04:16,493 --> 00:04:21,133 Speaker 4: may have been a different game. I think the intent 74 00:04:21,213 --> 00:04:24,453 Speaker 4: we had with the back, especially at the start, was outstanding. 75 00:04:24,533 --> 00:04:27,013 Speaker 4: It was clearly that probably the best time in the 76 00:04:27,053 --> 00:04:28,773 Speaker 4: bat was that was the power plan. I think, you know, 77 00:04:28,813 --> 00:04:30,493 Speaker 4: the way we went about it for the first kind 78 00:04:30,493 --> 00:04:33,253 Speaker 4: of yeah, eight overs or so, it was outstanding. And 79 00:04:33,333 --> 00:04:36,173 Speaker 4: then it took you know, some some brilliants from the 80 00:04:36,173 --> 00:04:38,293 Speaker 4: spin bolls to kind of really pee us back and 81 00:04:38,333 --> 00:04:42,933 Speaker 4: make it I guess challenging through that kind of middle phase. Yeah, 82 00:04:42,933 --> 00:04:45,493 Speaker 4: we didn't. I guess after the start we were probably thinking, 83 00:04:46,253 --> 00:04:48,373 Speaker 4: you know, to eighty two seventy five. But the way 84 00:04:48,893 --> 00:04:51,733 Speaker 4: you know, they were able to squeeze and build pressure 85 00:04:51,773 --> 00:04:54,853 Speaker 4: and then it really I mean the way Michael Brace 86 00:04:54,853 --> 00:04:56,333 Speaker 4: will play to the end got us you know up 87 00:04:56,373 --> 00:04:58,333 Speaker 4: to that kind of that two fifty mark, but it 88 00:04:58,373 --> 00:05:00,453 Speaker 4: was you know, maybe looking a little bit less. 89 00:05:00,973 --> 00:05:04,093 Speaker 2: What about the most encouraging aspects of the competition. 90 00:05:04,973 --> 00:05:08,013 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's never going to go perfectly, you know, these 91 00:05:08,013 --> 00:05:10,693 Speaker 4: tall and I guess with the quick turnaround of games 92 00:05:10,693 --> 00:05:13,493 Speaker 4: like we had, but I think what's most pleasing is, 93 00:05:13,573 --> 00:05:17,253 Speaker 4: you know, different guys got opportunities and and and stepping up. 94 00:05:17,453 --> 00:05:21,493 Speaker 4: Is you know, couldn't be proud of the group. You know, 95 00:05:21,573 --> 00:05:23,733 Speaker 4: guys coming in and out, and it's always it's always 96 00:05:23,773 --> 00:05:26,773 Speaker 4: you obviously want to play every game. But you know, 97 00:05:26,773 --> 00:05:28,333 Speaker 4: I think and then obviously the way Chin came back 98 00:05:28,373 --> 00:05:30,573 Speaker 4: straight away after his head knock and hit the ball 99 00:05:30,653 --> 00:05:33,933 Speaker 4: running and kJ flying over and then you know, putting 100 00:05:33,973 --> 00:05:36,093 Speaker 4: us straight in. And I thought he bowled extremely well 101 00:05:36,093 --> 00:05:38,573 Speaker 4: in the games he played, and you know, obviously a 102 00:05:38,573 --> 00:05:42,213 Speaker 4: tough one losing, losing Tesser today, but you know he 103 00:05:42,253 --> 00:05:44,373 Speaker 4: tried his very best to be to be ready for 104 00:05:44,533 --> 00:05:47,053 Speaker 4: this game. So yeah, I guess there's always adversity in 105 00:05:47,093 --> 00:05:51,173 Speaker 4: these tournaments, and you know, you could you could take 106 00:05:51,173 --> 00:05:52,853 Speaker 4: it back to a few different things, but you know, 107 00:05:52,893 --> 00:05:55,973 Speaker 4: I think, you know, we didn't really complain about anything. 108 00:05:56,013 --> 00:05:57,853 Speaker 4: We just kind of get old and that's that's how 109 00:05:57,893 --> 00:06:01,373 Speaker 4: we we'd like to operate. And yeah, obviously pretty proud 110 00:06:01,413 --> 00:06:03,013 Speaker 4: of the way we kind of fought throughout this whole 111 00:06:03,013 --> 00:06:05,813 Speaker 4: tournament and and different conditions everywhere went. 112 00:06:05,733 --> 00:06:09,013 Speaker 2: Really shame they weren't able to go all the way. 113 00:06:09,333 --> 00:06:12,973 Speaker 2: Two million US would be good money, Jerry, but you know, 114 00:06:13,373 --> 00:06:15,293 Speaker 2: at one point one two is what they get. They 115 00:06:15,373 --> 00:06:19,333 Speaker 2: get about seventy thousand each. Isn't bad US dollars in 116 00:06:19,413 --> 00:06:24,613 Speaker 2: terms of a work performance, bearing in mind they would 117 00:06:24,613 --> 00:06:26,693 Speaker 2: have been paid their contract rates as well. 118 00:06:28,093 --> 00:06:32,493 Speaker 3: For quite a handy couple of weeks. Yeah, look, I 119 00:06:32,533 --> 00:06:36,573 Speaker 3: mean that aside, to be honest, that's that secondary to me. 120 00:06:37,653 --> 00:06:39,413 Speaker 3: I think first of all, the point to make is 121 00:06:39,453 --> 00:06:42,973 Speaker 3: New Zealand deserved to be there. They were the I 122 00:06:43,013 --> 00:06:48,253 Speaker 3: think in the host country Pakistan. They won that part 123 00:06:48,253 --> 00:06:51,573 Speaker 3: of the tournament, didn't they beating Pakistan and Bangladesh and 124 00:06:51,573 --> 00:06:55,573 Speaker 3: then South Africa. I thought the second point would be 125 00:06:55,573 --> 00:06:59,253 Speaker 3: the unavailable unavailability of Matt Henry. That was a real blow, 126 00:06:59,373 --> 00:06:59,653 Speaker 3: wasn't it. 127 00:06:59,733 --> 00:07:00,253 Speaker 2: Yes, it was. 128 00:07:01,293 --> 00:07:04,773 Speaker 3: Yeah, not only our most consistent and accurate Seema, but 129 00:07:04,813 --> 00:07:09,573 Speaker 3: he also does well against India and then putarticular against 130 00:07:09,653 --> 00:07:12,773 Speaker 3: Roth Sharma. I think New Zealand probably missed him in 131 00:07:12,813 --> 00:07:15,853 Speaker 3: the powerplay and at the desk, and I think probably 132 00:07:15,933 --> 00:07:19,253 Speaker 3: at the moment he's our most effective death bowler. It's 133 00:07:19,253 --> 00:07:22,333 Speaker 3: an area of our game that needs, I think some work. 134 00:07:22,693 --> 00:07:25,653 Speaker 3: It's quite hard, isn't it really, Because as a seema wads, 135 00:07:26,293 --> 00:07:29,453 Speaker 3: you practice all your days to be consistent. Don't you 136 00:07:29,573 --> 00:07:32,733 Speaker 3: keep putting the ball, putting the ball, putting in the 137 00:07:32,773 --> 00:07:36,333 Speaker 3: same place Brew chats like. And then you get to 138 00:07:36,373 --> 00:07:38,773 Speaker 3: the end of the game and you need to have 139 00:07:39,413 --> 00:07:42,893 Speaker 3: variation and you've got to go against that everything You've 140 00:07:42,973 --> 00:07:45,973 Speaker 3: learned that consistency all the time in the powerplay. So 141 00:07:46,053 --> 00:07:48,653 Speaker 3: we're not quite so good at that yet. Here's a 142 00:07:48,733 --> 00:07:53,493 Speaker 3: question for you, Oh, did New Zealand need three seemas 143 00:07:53,493 --> 00:07:54,253 Speaker 3: that do bay. 144 00:07:54,853 --> 00:07:58,333 Speaker 2: No, probably not. But then they didn't have Matt Henry 145 00:07:58,733 --> 00:08:02,693 Speaker 2: and they brought in Nathan Smith. He at the moment 146 00:08:02,773 --> 00:08:04,933 Speaker 2: is still learning his game and so was a little 147 00:08:04,933 --> 00:08:08,173 Speaker 2: bit expensive. In a couple of overs, they got away 148 00:08:08,413 --> 00:08:11,213 Speaker 2: with just the two oers from him. You know, Jamison 149 00:08:11,293 --> 00:08:14,813 Speaker 2: and O'Rourke did the business pretty well. And then they 150 00:08:14,893 --> 00:08:19,293 Speaker 2: had the Forcemin bowlers and they were class, weren't they. 151 00:08:19,373 --> 00:08:23,493 Speaker 2: I mean, Michael Bracewell probably doesn't get the plaudits he deserves. 152 00:08:23,533 --> 00:08:27,573 Speaker 2: Mitchell Santra's been consistent right the way through. They had 153 00:08:28,013 --> 00:08:32,013 Speaker 2: Ravendra who played his part at times, and also Phillips. 154 00:08:32,533 --> 00:08:34,653 Speaker 2: And to me, you know, that's forty overs and I 155 00:08:34,653 --> 00:08:37,573 Speaker 2: think they could have got forty overs, certainly thirty at 156 00:08:37,653 --> 00:08:39,653 Speaker 2: least out of the whole four of them if they 157 00:08:39,653 --> 00:08:42,213 Speaker 2: were going to bowl their seemas. And it's a pity 158 00:08:42,253 --> 00:08:47,453 Speaker 2: that seemers like Matt Henry could have been ineffective on 159 00:08:47,853 --> 00:08:50,293 Speaker 2: that pitch. He missed one innings, didn't he But he 160 00:08:50,333 --> 00:08:52,853 Speaker 2: was still this top wiket taker ahead of spin bombing. 161 00:08:52,933 --> 00:08:59,813 Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, I just thought maybe we needed to be 162 00:08:59,893 --> 00:09:03,093 Speaker 3: a bit wee bit more flexible about that. Whether they 163 00:09:03,173 --> 00:09:07,613 Speaker 3: misread the pitch slightly, I don't think they probably did 164 00:09:07,853 --> 00:09:12,173 Speaker 3: obvious India and the position they were in they could 165 00:09:12,253 --> 00:09:16,813 Speaker 3: select aside with four spinners, but seam wasn't productive on 166 00:09:16,853 --> 00:09:19,533 Speaker 3: that pitch, was it. I mean India bowld twelve overs 167 00:09:19,853 --> 00:09:23,453 Speaker 3: one for one hundred and six from their seemers and 168 00:09:23,533 --> 00:09:27,253 Speaker 3: new Zea bold fourteen overs. Perhaps that's the two extra 169 00:09:27,293 --> 00:09:30,493 Speaker 3: ones from Nathan Smith but that was one for one 170 00:09:30,533 --> 00:09:33,533 Speaker 3: hundred and two. I guess the choice they had was 171 00:09:33,573 --> 00:09:36,533 Speaker 3: between Duffy and Smith, and they went for the more 172 00:09:36,573 --> 00:09:41,933 Speaker 3: batting and perhaps the better all round kind of offering 173 00:09:41,973 --> 00:09:47,093 Speaker 3: that Smith gives the field as well movement catching and 174 00:09:47,133 --> 00:09:50,693 Speaker 3: then his bowling and then the batting if required. I 175 00:09:50,773 --> 00:09:54,893 Speaker 3: wondered whether they could play another batsman once. I wondered 176 00:09:54,893 --> 00:09:58,853 Speaker 3: whether they could even throw, and maybe Chapman he is 177 00:09:58,853 --> 00:10:01,613 Speaker 3: in the field all the time. Anyway, it would have 178 00:10:01,653 --> 00:10:04,613 Speaker 3: been very different and flexible, and it's not like New Zealand. 179 00:10:04,613 --> 00:10:07,893 Speaker 3: I've got to admit that. But might that have meant 180 00:10:08,693 --> 00:10:15,053 Speaker 3: we were less timid during those middle thirty overs between 181 00:10:15,133 --> 00:10:18,533 Speaker 3: the powerplay and the death overs. Would it have meant 182 00:10:18,573 --> 00:10:21,813 Speaker 3: that we could have attacked a little more than we 183 00:10:22,013 --> 00:10:27,293 Speaker 3: even tried. I'm not saying it was easy, but anyway, 184 00:10:27,413 --> 00:10:30,373 Speaker 3: I mean the next question i'd ask you when they 185 00:10:30,453 --> 00:10:33,653 Speaker 3: won the toss New Zealand, should they bowld or should 186 00:10:33,653 --> 00:10:34,173 Speaker 3: they battered? 187 00:10:34,853 --> 00:10:35,053 Speaker 1: Yeah? 188 00:10:35,093 --> 00:10:37,853 Speaker 2: I think Sat made the point that he was quite 189 00:10:37,893 --> 00:10:39,573 Speaker 2: happy if they got the runs on the board that 190 00:10:39,613 --> 00:10:42,133 Speaker 2: they could defend it, and I suppose in the end 191 00:10:42,133 --> 00:10:45,453 Speaker 2: result his point was that they were probably twenty to 192 00:10:45,493 --> 00:10:48,773 Speaker 2: thirty light that they were unable to create the pressure 193 00:10:49,013 --> 00:10:51,893 Speaker 2: and that was probably the timid nature because when it 194 00:10:51,933 --> 00:10:54,653 Speaker 2: got to bracefol down the order, he was able to 195 00:10:54,653 --> 00:10:59,093 Speaker 2: play with freedom. But you know, it leaves you fewer overs, 196 00:10:59,133 --> 00:11:01,573 Speaker 2: doesn't it, because you're worried about, well, we're going to 197 00:11:01,573 --> 00:11:03,573 Speaker 2: get into a tail in the moment. I mean Smith 198 00:11:03,613 --> 00:11:05,253 Speaker 2: came in and faced a couple of balls I think 199 00:11:05,293 --> 00:11:09,013 Speaker 2: towards the end, but that might have made the difference. 200 00:11:09,053 --> 00:11:11,653 Speaker 2: But you know, those are the things that you can 201 00:11:11,693 --> 00:11:16,253 Speaker 2: look at in hindsights. They made those decisions and you know, 202 00:11:16,773 --> 00:11:19,613 Speaker 2: it got down to the last over, and that I 203 00:11:19,653 --> 00:11:23,493 Speaker 2: think is where you know, New Zealand probably were just 204 00:11:23,533 --> 00:11:26,933 Speaker 2: a little bit light in terms of runs, but it 205 00:11:26,973 --> 00:11:29,493 Speaker 2: was hard to know what was a passcoor on that deck. 206 00:11:29,613 --> 00:11:34,173 Speaker 2: That just highlights for me the adequacies of playing on 207 00:11:34,293 --> 00:11:38,013 Speaker 2: that ground and the failure of the ICC to do 208 00:11:39,373 --> 00:11:42,933 Speaker 2: the tournament and treat it with the integrity that it deserves. 209 00:11:43,573 --> 00:11:46,133 Speaker 2: And there's been a lot of complaints from a lot 210 00:11:46,133 --> 00:11:49,813 Speaker 2: of people. Certainly New Zealand didn't complain, but I know 211 00:11:49,933 --> 00:11:53,053 Speaker 2: David Miller had something to say. And you know, when 212 00:11:53,093 --> 00:11:55,453 Speaker 2: you look at the amount of flying, you know what 213 00:11:55,493 --> 00:11:58,413 Speaker 2: it's like. You have to pack your bag, unpack your bag. 214 00:11:58,453 --> 00:12:00,573 Speaker 2: You're in and out of airports. You know, there's a 215 00:12:00,573 --> 00:12:04,653 Speaker 2: lot of wasted time, mental pain, isn't there. You're not 216 00:12:04,693 --> 00:12:08,773 Speaker 2: sitting in a hotel with your feet out, drinking line 217 00:12:08,813 --> 00:12:11,773 Speaker 2: and squash or Bacardian code. 218 00:12:11,493 --> 00:12:16,653 Speaker 3: No, that's true. I think the David Miller point was 219 00:12:16,813 --> 00:12:21,893 Speaker 3: they traveled at also very very early, the timing of 220 00:12:21,933 --> 00:12:25,893 Speaker 3: the flights, and he was talking about after the semi final, 221 00:12:26,013 --> 00:12:29,973 Speaker 3: wasn't it going down yes, or just prior to the 222 00:12:29,973 --> 00:12:34,133 Speaker 3: semi maybe yeah, down to Dubai and then having to 223 00:12:34,173 --> 00:12:37,733 Speaker 3: get flights back from Dubai when it wasn't required when 224 00:12:37,733 --> 00:12:40,093 Speaker 3: they saw the result, and having to go back to 225 00:12:40,133 --> 00:12:42,853 Speaker 3: the hall where they left from. And so he was 226 00:12:42,853 --> 00:12:45,733 Speaker 3: talking about just a sheer. You're right about the time 227 00:12:45,733 --> 00:12:49,133 Speaker 3: in airports, You're right about the waiting, You're right about 228 00:12:49,813 --> 00:12:53,613 Speaker 3: the buses and the traffic. It does take a lot 229 00:12:53,653 --> 00:12:57,293 Speaker 3: of time out, there's no doubt about that. And all 230 00:12:57,333 --> 00:12:59,493 Speaker 3: the teams other than India would have done a lot 231 00:12:59,533 --> 00:13:02,493 Speaker 3: of that, I can tell you, especially those who made 232 00:13:02,533 --> 00:13:06,493 Speaker 3: it through to the end of the tournament. But anyway, look, 233 00:13:06,733 --> 00:13:09,813 Speaker 3: I think batting was the right choice. I mean in 234 00:13:09,853 --> 00:13:14,053 Speaker 3: that dead rubber in Dubai where they played against India. 235 00:13:14,573 --> 00:13:16,973 Speaker 3: I think New Zealand noticed the ball turned more in 236 00:13:17,013 --> 00:13:19,213 Speaker 3: the second innings they were batting there, weren't they. 237 00:13:21,013 --> 00:13:21,293 Speaker 1: In that? 238 00:13:22,013 --> 00:13:24,853 Speaker 3: And I think they got bold Indian out for about 239 00:13:24,853 --> 00:13:28,613 Speaker 3: two fifty and then they were well and comfortably short 240 00:13:29,413 --> 00:13:33,653 Speaker 3: chasing against those four spinners in Dubai the first game 241 00:13:33,693 --> 00:13:37,053 Speaker 3: they played there. Secondly, I think Miller and Ravender I 242 00:13:37,093 --> 00:13:40,573 Speaker 3: heard them both saying and something or other after the 243 00:13:40,613 --> 00:13:44,333 Speaker 3: South African semi final and Lahore that the pitch helped 244 00:13:44,373 --> 00:13:48,693 Speaker 3: spin more on the second innings even there. And I 245 00:13:48,733 --> 00:13:51,413 Speaker 3: think also I saw on the telly if I was 246 00:13:51,453 --> 00:13:56,253 Speaker 3: still awake in the final, I think they compared the 247 00:13:56,293 --> 00:13:58,693 Speaker 3: amount of turn in the first innings to the second. 248 00:13:59,213 --> 00:14:02,093 Speaker 3: Two degrees in the first I've written here, and three 249 00:14:02,173 --> 00:14:05,933 Speaker 3: point four in the second innings. Now that doesn't mean, 250 00:14:06,373 --> 00:14:10,173 Speaker 3: that doesn't mean wickets immediately. That's just an indicator, isn't it. 251 00:14:10,693 --> 00:14:15,813 Speaker 3: But you can imagine cool Deep and Chuck Ravarti turning 252 00:14:15,853 --> 00:14:22,533 Speaker 3: it as well, because I don't think the pitch turned dramatically. Brian, Yes, 253 00:14:22,653 --> 00:14:26,813 Speaker 3: so it was a slow pitch. And don't forget if 254 00:14:26,853 --> 00:14:29,853 Speaker 3: Judaisa was bowling it between ninety and one hundred k's 255 00:14:30,373 --> 00:14:34,613 Speaker 3: the imagine if that was gripping as well. I think 256 00:14:34,613 --> 00:14:35,733 Speaker 3: it was the right decision. 257 00:14:36,173 --> 00:14:38,453 Speaker 2: Chuckravarti is an interesting biler because he was able to 258 00:14:38,453 --> 00:14:44,133 Speaker 2: get a little bit more bounce with his leg spin style. 259 00:14:44,253 --> 00:14:47,733 Speaker 2: But he's got such a variety, he's pretty accurate, and 260 00:14:47,773 --> 00:14:50,013 Speaker 2: he does get the ball to drift in, doesn't he. 261 00:14:50,053 --> 00:14:50,533 Speaker 2: That's when he. 262 00:14:50,533 --> 00:14:54,973 Speaker 5: Got Will Young with LBW was just a lovely leg 263 00:14:55,013 --> 00:14:57,653 Speaker 5: spinner and he did that quite often, which makes him 264 00:14:57,653 --> 00:15:00,213 Speaker 5: a difficult man to hit because you got that, you know, 265 00:15:00,413 --> 00:15:02,653 Speaker 5: a couple of centimeters between the inside edge of the 266 00:15:02,693 --> 00:15:05,573 Speaker 5: bat and the front pad if you're playing straight along 267 00:15:05,693 --> 00:15:06,413 Speaker 5: the pitch. 268 00:15:06,453 --> 00:15:09,373 Speaker 2: And he was a man to stroke for them, and 269 00:15:09,413 --> 00:15:11,253 Speaker 2: I think he's in and handled him pretty well. 270 00:15:11,653 --> 00:15:13,773 Speaker 3: Yeah, they couldn't get him away, could they. It was 271 00:15:13,813 --> 00:15:17,573 Speaker 3: really a case of defending. Yeah, I think you're right. 272 00:15:17,653 --> 00:15:21,133 Speaker 3: I think if you place your leg early on as 273 00:15:21,173 --> 00:15:23,853 Speaker 3: the ball's coming down, I think you get in a 274 00:15:23,853 --> 00:15:27,133 Speaker 3: wee bit of trouble, which is I think what Young found. 275 00:15:27,613 --> 00:15:30,573 Speaker 3: And at the last moment, any leg spinner, if you turner, 276 00:15:30,613 --> 00:15:33,533 Speaker 3: it's going to come into you just the same as 277 00:15:33,613 --> 00:15:37,693 Speaker 3: Bracewell will drift it away from a right hand a 278 00:15:37,773 --> 00:15:40,293 Speaker 3: leg spinner brings it into you and then turns it, 279 00:15:40,333 --> 00:15:45,213 Speaker 3: turns it back. But yeah, he's a real mystery, isn't he. Chacker? 280 00:15:45,533 --> 00:15:48,613 Speaker 3: I mean, we had the telly and we could see 281 00:15:48,653 --> 00:15:54,213 Speaker 3: the differences of delivery. Batsman can't see that. But what 282 00:15:54,293 --> 00:15:56,773 Speaker 3: you do get is a chance to see the ball 283 00:15:56,853 --> 00:16:01,173 Speaker 3: as it comes towards you which way it's turning. And 284 00:16:01,213 --> 00:16:04,653 Speaker 3: I don't think New Zealand batsmen have quite got into 285 00:16:04,733 --> 00:16:09,293 Speaker 3: that habit, not quite enough anyway now, because they were guessing, 286 00:16:09,653 --> 00:16:10,533 Speaker 3: they didn't know. 287 00:16:10,853 --> 00:16:13,093 Speaker 2: And I think they were wanting to dominate him and 288 00:16:13,293 --> 00:16:15,133 Speaker 2: probably picked a little bit too early to try and 289 00:16:15,173 --> 00:16:17,333 Speaker 2: dominate him. I mean they took nine off his first 290 00:16:17,373 --> 00:16:19,933 Speaker 2: over and those sorts of things because you know that 291 00:16:20,013 --> 00:16:23,093 Speaker 2: he is a danger and I thought that, you know, 292 00:16:23,733 --> 00:16:27,813 Speaker 2: Revender handled him pretty well. I mean, talking about stars 293 00:16:28,173 --> 00:16:31,173 Speaker 2: at the competition, Matt Henry was the star seam bowler 294 00:16:31,373 --> 00:16:35,813 Speaker 2: with the most wickets for most runs. I mean, he 295 00:16:35,813 --> 00:16:39,533 Speaker 2: he is becoming a remarkable player. What is it about 296 00:16:39,653 --> 00:16:41,893 Speaker 2: the way he plays that you like it? He must 297 00:16:41,933 --> 00:16:45,053 Speaker 2: see the ball very very early, and he loves to 298 00:16:45,093 --> 00:16:46,293 Speaker 2: go down the pitch, doesn't he? 299 00:16:46,733 --> 00:16:49,213 Speaker 3: I think he does. I think that's a little bit 300 00:16:49,253 --> 00:16:52,253 Speaker 3: of use. What is he twenty five, twenty four, twenty five? 301 00:16:52,293 --> 00:16:56,453 Speaker 3: I think he's But he just concentrates so hard you can. 302 00:16:56,893 --> 00:16:58,933 Speaker 3: They gave us a close up, didn't they? In that 303 00:16:58,973 --> 00:17:02,773 Speaker 3: the eyes at some point and you could just see 304 00:17:02,853 --> 00:17:07,253 Speaker 3: the way he was watching so intently. He always goes 305 00:17:07,293 --> 00:17:12,013 Speaker 3: forward into a ford press. He always looks to attack 306 00:17:12,133 --> 00:17:15,493 Speaker 3: first and defend second, which is ideal. I think for 307 00:17:15,613 --> 00:17:18,813 Speaker 3: the white ball game. It can make him look a 308 00:17:18,933 --> 00:17:22,413 Speaker 3: little I don't know, a shot a ballman, if you 309 00:17:22,493 --> 00:17:25,013 Speaker 3: know what I mean. Most of the times he's getting 310 00:17:25,053 --> 00:17:27,733 Speaker 3: away with it, but it can make him a bit loose. 311 00:17:27,893 --> 00:17:30,573 Speaker 3: He was dropped twice, wasn't he in that innings? And 312 00:17:30,653 --> 00:17:35,853 Speaker 3: so he gives chances. But yeah, I mean he also 313 00:17:35,973 --> 00:17:40,653 Speaker 3: makes a lot of runs. But yeah, he was fantastic 314 00:17:40,693 --> 00:17:44,333 Speaker 3: and the player of the tournament. Yeah, I mean he 315 00:17:44,413 --> 00:17:48,293 Speaker 3: obviously he obviously didn't pick the cool deep delivery, did 316 00:17:48,293 --> 00:17:52,733 Speaker 3: he first ball a wrongan and clever bowling therefore, and 317 00:17:52,933 --> 00:17:54,853 Speaker 3: was bowled off the pad ondly the book, but it 318 00:17:54,893 --> 00:17:57,053 Speaker 3: beat him, no doubt about that, and then onto the 319 00:17:57,093 --> 00:18:02,813 Speaker 3: stumps Williamson pushed right out to cool Deep as well. 320 00:18:03,253 --> 00:18:06,733 Speaker 3: But you see risties get bounce wads, they get a 321 00:18:06,773 --> 00:18:10,173 Speaker 3: wee bit more bounce. And you mentioned Jack Ravarti and 322 00:18:10,213 --> 00:18:13,653 Speaker 3: then also Cooled Deep as well, and that actually bounced 323 00:18:13,653 --> 00:18:16,053 Speaker 3: a bit more on Williamson, didn't it. And if he 324 00:18:16,093 --> 00:18:18,133 Speaker 3: had have played it straight, it would have been he 325 00:18:18,173 --> 00:18:20,933 Speaker 3: was looking to take a single and got a not 326 00:18:20,973 --> 00:18:24,373 Speaker 3: a leading edge, so much more an outside of the bat, 327 00:18:24,893 --> 00:18:30,013 Speaker 3: but not an edge, I didn't think. And yeah, yeah, 328 00:18:30,493 --> 00:18:34,093 Speaker 3: And then Phillips, Phillips was bowled by a Roman from 329 00:18:34,173 --> 00:18:37,093 Speaker 3: Chack Ravarti, which he thought was a legie. And so 330 00:18:37,253 --> 00:18:41,293 Speaker 3: there are a number of players in that young Ravendra, 331 00:18:41,373 --> 00:18:44,693 Speaker 3: Williams and Phillips in that top order who were all 332 00:18:45,573 --> 00:18:50,733 Speaker 3: beaten by wrist spinners and not quite picking the ball. 333 00:18:52,133 --> 00:18:55,893 Speaker 3: And then you had then you had Mitchell. He just 334 00:18:55,893 --> 00:18:58,333 Speaker 3: got a weave at stranded, didn't he. He obviously took 335 00:18:58,333 --> 00:19:03,333 Speaker 3: it upon himself. We've lost three wickets quickly. Someone's got 336 00:19:03,333 --> 00:19:05,853 Speaker 3: to see this through. We cannot afford to lose another 337 00:19:06,813 --> 00:19:11,173 Speaker 3: and that was his primary, yeah, primary concern. But it 338 00:19:11,213 --> 00:19:15,773 Speaker 3: did cost it cost us in terms of runs, thirty 339 00:19:15,813 --> 00:19:19,253 Speaker 3: two runs in the second group of ten thirty four 340 00:19:19,293 --> 00:19:23,173 Speaker 3: and the third group of ten and then thirty seven. 341 00:19:23,293 --> 00:19:27,573 Speaker 3: So between overs ten and forty, New Zealand goingly got 342 00:19:27,573 --> 00:19:32,133 Speaker 3: one hundred and three runs, so that came at a cost. 343 00:19:32,653 --> 00:19:36,853 Speaker 3: He did try, He tried to sweep, but it was 344 00:19:36,933 --> 00:19:39,733 Speaker 3: just too difficult. And what Rohitt did well, I mean, 345 00:19:39,813 --> 00:19:43,293 Speaker 3: imagine having four bowlers like that wads, it would be like. 346 00:19:43,813 --> 00:19:47,333 Speaker 3: It reminded me of Clive Lloyd, you know, having Marshall 347 00:19:47,413 --> 00:19:52,613 Speaker 3: holding Garner and Roberts. You know, yeah, well that's right. 348 00:19:52,653 --> 00:19:55,573 Speaker 3: And Clive used to change them on the hour. He 349 00:19:55,653 --> 00:19:59,013 Speaker 3: used to look at the clock, turn them over and 350 00:19:59,133 --> 00:20:04,373 Speaker 3: change them over. And it must be wonderful to have 351 00:20:04,413 --> 00:20:07,973 Speaker 3: two legies and then two left arm spinners. And he 352 00:20:08,053 --> 00:20:11,333 Speaker 3: paired the mark didn't He Aksa went with cool Deep 353 00:20:11,773 --> 00:20:16,133 Speaker 3: Jadasia went with Chuck Gravati and it was fast bowling. 354 00:20:16,133 --> 00:20:20,493 Speaker 3: They were ninety to one hundred on the stumps and 355 00:20:20,533 --> 00:20:23,253 Speaker 3: it didn't give you much option. You'd expect to get 356 00:20:23,293 --> 00:20:26,773 Speaker 3: one loose ball and two overs, wouldn't you. You didn't though, 357 00:20:27,333 --> 00:20:30,773 Speaker 3: they weren't coming up there at all. So a little 358 00:20:30,813 --> 00:20:35,653 Speaker 3: bit bamboos led by the leggies. And then the left 359 00:20:35,773 --> 00:20:39,293 Speaker 3: arm is bowling at that speed on the stumps. Even 360 00:20:39,333 --> 00:20:44,293 Speaker 3: when lath And, one of our better sweepers, had to 361 00:20:44,293 --> 00:20:47,133 Speaker 3: go at Jadasia, he missed it. And that was the 362 00:20:47,213 --> 00:20:52,693 Speaker 3: danger with that and as lbw so very tough and 363 00:20:53,493 --> 00:20:56,773 Speaker 3: really they weren't the only ones. And once you get 364 00:20:56,773 --> 00:20:59,733 Speaker 3: that one hundred and sixty hundred and seventy hundred and 365 00:20:59,733 --> 00:21:02,573 Speaker 3: eighty dot balls and Mitchell got drowned in him, didn't 366 00:21:02,613 --> 00:21:06,533 Speaker 3: he It was going to be a subpar total. You 367 00:21:06,613 --> 00:21:10,693 Speaker 3: always felt two fifty. New Zealand needed wickets early and 368 00:21:10,773 --> 00:21:13,613 Speaker 3: so then and they got a little period of pressure 369 00:21:14,173 --> 00:21:19,133 Speaker 3: when they applied it, didn't they. Yes, yeah, they got 370 00:21:19,173 --> 00:21:21,773 Speaker 3: Gill out. Gill was another one who'd had trouble. He 371 00:21:21,813 --> 00:21:24,773 Speaker 3: got thirty one or fifty now only hit one boundary 372 00:21:25,053 --> 00:21:28,213 Speaker 3: and that was a six. So it wasn't as if 373 00:21:28,533 --> 00:21:30,653 Speaker 3: New Zealand were alone and that I'd love to have 374 00:21:30,693 --> 00:21:37,973 Speaker 3: seen the Indian batsman playing their spinners actually, so yeah, 375 00:21:38,413 --> 00:21:41,893 Speaker 3: it was It was just a question did Mitchell did 376 00:21:41,973 --> 00:21:42,813 Speaker 3: he wait too long? 377 00:21:44,133 --> 00:21:46,293 Speaker 2: Well, you know he's caught the devil in the deep 378 00:21:46,293 --> 00:21:50,253 Speaker 2: blue sea, really, isn't he? Because he is, You make 379 00:21:50,293 --> 00:21:53,253 Speaker 2: a mistake, you get out and things fall apart. I 380 00:21:53,293 --> 00:21:55,653 Speaker 2: think he had to play the way he did and 381 00:21:56,293 --> 00:21:59,253 Speaker 2: you know, and the end results. He made a platform 382 00:21:59,333 --> 00:22:02,613 Speaker 2: for bracefall, but at that stage they'd lost the momentum 383 00:22:02,933 --> 00:22:07,413 Speaker 2: that they needed and losing Williamson early because he's a 384 00:22:07,453 --> 00:22:11,573 Speaker 2: player can get the momentum game. I was interested. It's 385 00:22:11,573 --> 00:22:13,733 Speaker 2: good to be able to sit and watch players like 386 00:22:13,813 --> 00:22:16,893 Speaker 2: Williamson over a period of time. Do you, since I 387 00:22:16,893 --> 00:22:18,733 Speaker 2: don't know whether you watched a lot of them during 388 00:22:19,093 --> 00:22:22,013 Speaker 2: this series, do you sense though he's trying to broaden 389 00:22:22,093 --> 00:22:25,853 Speaker 2: his game and widen how he plays. He's playing reverse 390 00:22:25,893 --> 00:22:29,373 Speaker 2: sweeps a little more often now, he's got that wonderful 391 00:22:29,613 --> 00:22:32,813 Speaker 2: inside out stroke over extra cover that he seems to 392 00:22:32,853 --> 00:22:36,853 Speaker 2: have perfected, and his stroke range in short form cricket 393 00:22:37,013 --> 00:22:38,693 Speaker 2: seems to be getting a little bit wider. 394 00:22:38,973 --> 00:22:43,013 Speaker 3: Have you noticed that, yep, the slog sweep he also 395 00:22:43,093 --> 00:22:46,213 Speaker 3: brought in against South Africa, didn't He and went over 396 00:22:46,413 --> 00:22:50,253 Speaker 3: against or the left armor from Sada, a good bowler 397 00:22:50,813 --> 00:22:54,333 Speaker 3: Maharaj and he slogged him for six as well over 398 00:22:54,373 --> 00:22:57,213 Speaker 3: sort of that wide long on area and used that 399 00:22:57,293 --> 00:23:01,453 Speaker 3: a couple of times. So he is certainly showing us 400 00:23:01,453 --> 00:23:04,573 Speaker 3: a wider range. He's obviously been able to play them, 401 00:23:04,573 --> 00:23:06,533 Speaker 3: but it hasn't been prepared to in games. Now he 402 00:23:06,653 --> 00:23:10,253 Speaker 3: is and he was actually the one I felt against 403 00:23:10,293 --> 00:23:13,933 Speaker 3: South Africa who was putting the pedal down. He was 404 00:23:13,973 --> 00:23:16,813 Speaker 3: the one who was changing and upping the anti that 405 00:23:16,973 --> 00:23:18,893 Speaker 3: all the time. Then he got that little flick over 406 00:23:18,933 --> 00:23:21,013 Speaker 3: the keeper and got away with it a couple of times, 407 00:23:21,373 --> 00:23:22,853 Speaker 3: got him out in the end, and it was a 408 00:23:22,893 --> 00:23:27,373 Speaker 3: slower one, but he was prepared to play a much 409 00:23:27,453 --> 00:23:30,173 Speaker 3: wider range of stroke, no doubt about it. I think 410 00:23:30,253 --> 00:23:34,293 Speaker 3: New Zealand generally was I'd say, as a generalization, rather 411 00:23:34,373 --> 00:23:36,533 Speaker 3: than go for three hundred and ten in the innings, 412 00:23:37,253 --> 00:23:40,333 Speaker 3: they would prefer to get to two to eighty and 413 00:23:40,453 --> 00:23:43,653 Speaker 3: settle for it and then try very hard to defend 414 00:23:43,693 --> 00:23:47,293 Speaker 3: it rather than going hard for three ten and getting 415 00:23:47,333 --> 00:23:49,973 Speaker 3: out a little bit earlier, rather a lot more like 416 00:23:50,053 --> 00:23:54,293 Speaker 3: England do. And so that seems to be their preference 417 00:23:54,813 --> 00:23:56,053 Speaker 3: and their generalization. 418 00:23:56,733 --> 00:24:00,373 Speaker 2: They played an organized game, didn't they. I think the 419 00:24:00,733 --> 00:24:04,253 Speaker 2: important thing from my point of view was the consistency 420 00:24:04,293 --> 00:24:06,853 Speaker 2: of performance. We've been critical of them in certain games 421 00:24:06,893 --> 00:24:11,133 Speaker 2: and was justification that they haven't been consistent in their performance. 422 00:24:11,173 --> 00:24:15,093 Speaker 2: But right throughout this series and the series in Pakistan. 423 00:24:15,173 --> 00:24:19,093 Speaker 2: As a lead up, their consistency was good. They had 424 00:24:19,733 --> 00:24:23,333 Speaker 2: depth and batting, their seam bowling attackers starting to develop 425 00:24:23,373 --> 00:24:25,933 Speaker 2: as well. You know that the signs are good and 426 00:24:25,973 --> 00:24:28,813 Speaker 2: there's plenty to be positive about. We can't look at 427 00:24:28,893 --> 00:24:31,773 Speaker 2: you know, there are always slight negatives, but you know, 428 00:24:32,133 --> 00:24:35,933 Speaker 2: generally it was a successful performance even though they didn't 429 00:24:35,933 --> 00:24:36,533 Speaker 2: win the title. 430 00:24:36,893 --> 00:24:40,613 Speaker 3: Correct, they played very well in this Champion's Trophy. And 431 00:24:40,653 --> 00:24:44,493 Speaker 3: don't forget the spinners. You've probably mentioned them already, But 432 00:24:45,053 --> 00:24:46,853 Speaker 3: I think a lot of people, for example, think that 433 00:24:46,933 --> 00:24:49,693 Speaker 3: Brace was as a bits and pieces cricketer. Chap who 434 00:24:50,133 --> 00:24:52,693 Speaker 3: holds the batter bit and bowls a bit. You know, 435 00:24:54,013 --> 00:24:57,733 Speaker 3: he's much better than that accurate catcher Handy number seven, 436 00:24:58,413 --> 00:25:00,453 Speaker 3: large hands, gives the ball a good rip like his 437 00:25:00,493 --> 00:25:04,053 Speaker 3: old uncle John, and drifts it away and drops it 438 00:25:04,133 --> 00:25:07,293 Speaker 3: and brings it back. I think he balances the side 439 00:25:07,293 --> 00:25:11,933 Speaker 3: out really well. Antona, his skills slightly different. He was 440 00:25:11,973 --> 00:25:15,813 Speaker 3: looking for wickets, wasn't he. He wants good flight and 441 00:25:15,853 --> 00:25:19,053 Speaker 3: to get people out with you know, changes of pace 442 00:25:19,093 --> 00:25:24,573 Speaker 3: and turn. Very different approach than Judasia and Actua Patel. Revendra. 443 00:25:25,413 --> 00:25:27,613 Speaker 3: I mean, if I think of Ravendra, he came into 444 00:25:27,653 --> 00:25:30,053 Speaker 3: the New Zealand side at what was he seventeen eighteen 445 00:25:30,173 --> 00:25:34,613 Speaker 3: or whatever, twenty and bold left arm, orthodox, didn't he 446 00:25:34,973 --> 00:25:37,093 Speaker 3: but he was always going to be a better batsman 447 00:25:37,733 --> 00:25:40,813 Speaker 3: and that's they were just easing him in at that stage. 448 00:25:40,973 --> 00:25:43,293 Speaker 3: He's a bit like Judasia in the sense he's quick 449 00:25:43,373 --> 00:25:47,493 Speaker 3: through the air and New Zealand has got to keep 450 00:25:47,533 --> 00:25:49,653 Speaker 3: on bowling him. It's good to have that difference, so 451 00:25:49,693 --> 00:25:55,093 Speaker 3: I think yep. So I thought the New Zealanders were 452 00:25:55,693 --> 00:25:59,693 Speaker 3: very effective. Their spinners could pull their opposition back a 453 00:25:59,733 --> 00:26:02,893 Speaker 3: little bit, and they did for a while once Rowat 454 00:26:02,893 --> 00:26:06,013 Speaker 3: Shama was stumped. They made it quite awkward and they 455 00:26:06,053 --> 00:26:09,533 Speaker 3: looked a bit under pressure the Indians for about sort 456 00:26:09,533 --> 00:26:14,453 Speaker 3: of no maybe five to ten overs. Unfortunately, New Zealand 457 00:26:14,253 --> 00:26:18,533 Speaker 3: the half chances they got, they didn't have quite the 458 00:26:18,533 --> 00:26:21,653 Speaker 3: best day in the field, but as you say, those 459 00:26:21,693 --> 00:26:25,733 Speaker 3: things can happen. They batted well, they got good runs, 460 00:26:26,093 --> 00:26:29,693 Speaker 3: they defended with spin in the middle and generally were 461 00:26:29,813 --> 00:26:30,933 Speaker 3: very good in the field. 462 00:26:31,413 --> 00:26:33,173 Speaker 2: Well, Michael Braceley was going to get a chance to 463 00:26:33,493 --> 00:26:36,853 Speaker 2: bother it more because he's been named captain of the 464 00:26:36,893 --> 00:26:40,773 Speaker 2: T twenty squad to play against Pakistan five of those 465 00:26:40,973 --> 00:26:43,573 Speaker 2: coming up, and of course they're playing Odie Iss as well. 466 00:26:44,133 --> 00:26:48,533 Speaker 2: The reason of course that Satna Chapman and I'm just 467 00:26:48,533 --> 00:26:52,933 Speaker 2: trying to think of the other ones are Ferguson. There's 468 00:26:53,013 --> 00:26:57,373 Speaker 2: four of anyway not not playing this series. Brace was 469 00:26:57,413 --> 00:27:02,293 Speaker 2: the captain, Finnellen, Mark Chapman, Jacob Duffy, Zach Fuchs comes 470 00:27:02,293 --> 00:27:04,453 Speaker 2: back in for a couple of games. Mitch Hater keeper 471 00:27:04,813 --> 00:27:08,533 Speaker 2: Matt Henry will play a couple of games. Jamison Mitchell 472 00:27:08,773 --> 00:27:12,733 Speaker 2: nich o'rour will play three games. He and Jamison will 473 00:27:12,733 --> 00:27:15,013 Speaker 2: play three games. Tim Robinson back at the top of 474 00:27:15,013 --> 00:27:18,013 Speaker 2: the order. That's going to be interesting with Finn Allen 475 00:27:18,213 --> 00:27:22,253 Speaker 2: and the likes Rich and Rutchian Ravender is not there. 476 00:27:22,293 --> 00:27:25,373 Speaker 2: Of course, Ben Sears good to see him back, and 477 00:27:25,533 --> 00:27:28,013 Speaker 2: Ish Sodian. You know, we sort of forget about the 478 00:27:28,053 --> 00:27:30,733 Speaker 2: ben Sears when we talk about paste bowlers. They've got Duffy, 479 00:27:31,013 --> 00:27:33,933 Speaker 2: but you know, now that he's got over his injury, Sears, 480 00:27:34,253 --> 00:27:38,133 Speaker 2: you know, the chances of seeing a really good top 481 00:27:38,173 --> 00:27:41,293 Speaker 2: line paste bowling attack in action that is encouraging. 482 00:27:41,573 --> 00:27:44,773 Speaker 3: No doubt about that. Yeah, don't forget we lost Ferguson, 483 00:27:44,813 --> 00:27:47,213 Speaker 3: didn't we? In the in the Champions Trophy and sears. 484 00:27:48,453 --> 00:27:50,573 Speaker 3: So that sounds to me. What's the first time I've 485 00:27:50,653 --> 00:27:53,253 Speaker 3: kind of heard you name those with fin Allen and 486 00:27:53,333 --> 00:27:57,413 Speaker 3: Robinson open. Where does Cipher fit three? Perhaps, well he's 487 00:27:57,453 --> 00:28:00,733 Speaker 3: been or Mark Chapman. Mark Chapman was number three against 488 00:28:01,053 --> 00:28:04,693 Speaker 3: Sri Lanka, wasn't he? Mitchell's there you mentioned, so he'd 489 00:28:04,733 --> 00:28:08,493 Speaker 3: before I heard the word the name nism at some point. 490 00:28:08,533 --> 00:28:12,453 Speaker 3: So he'll be, I guess, drifting around, so will Bracewall. 491 00:28:12,893 --> 00:28:15,853 Speaker 2: They've got Mitch Hayes as well, and it's been a 492 00:28:15,893 --> 00:28:17,893 Speaker 2: little bit further down the order and some of the 493 00:28:17,933 --> 00:28:19,973 Speaker 2: sides that he's been playing for. But it's good to 494 00:28:19,973 --> 00:28:22,493 Speaker 2: see him back in our Ta twitty squad and that's 495 00:28:22,533 --> 00:28:28,133 Speaker 2: going to be something of while I've got the players out. 496 00:28:29,453 --> 00:28:31,893 Speaker 3: So the spinners of Bracewell and Sodi is that is? That? 497 00:28:32,053 --> 00:28:32,773 Speaker 3: Was that about right? 498 00:28:33,413 --> 00:28:36,493 Speaker 2: That's the ones that I can see there. Zach Fuchs 499 00:28:36,573 --> 00:28:40,413 Speaker 2: is a medium pace, yeah, spinners. 500 00:28:40,733 --> 00:28:44,093 Speaker 3: And plenty of seamers which they're going to rotate obviously, yep. 501 00:28:44,253 --> 00:28:47,773 Speaker 2: Five games to be played. Okay, then starting on a. 502 00:28:47,853 --> 00:28:52,533 Speaker 1: Sunday, Brian Waddle, Jeremy Coney on the front foot. 503 00:28:52,773 --> 00:28:56,813 Speaker 2: Well, the New Zealand women's team. The White Fins have 504 00:28:57,733 --> 00:29:00,933 Speaker 2: had a pretty encouraging series against Sri Lanka and welcome 505 00:29:00,933 --> 00:29:05,093 Speaker 2: back to the White Fins. Hope that Georgia Plummer serious injury. 506 00:29:05,093 --> 00:29:08,493 Speaker 2: Following the World to Twitty, Plumber continued to development the 507 00:29:08,573 --> 00:29:12,853 Speaker 2: teching opener in a side that had numerous injury issues 508 00:29:12,853 --> 00:29:15,973 Speaker 2: and without Divine and Kerr at the helm, the first 509 00:29:15,973 --> 00:29:20,493 Speaker 2: International Century kept off for a good series. Georgia Plumouth, Yeah, definitely. 510 00:29:20,493 --> 00:29:23,613 Speaker 6: I think across the series we've obviously saying Maddie score 511 00:29:23,613 --> 00:29:26,173 Speaker 6: one hundred and have some good partnerships in that game 512 00:29:26,213 --> 00:29:28,253 Speaker 6: as well as today's game, and I think a lot 513 00:29:28,293 --> 00:29:30,333 Speaker 6: of what our work on TV being for fifty over 514 00:29:30,413 --> 00:29:32,973 Speaker 6: cricket has been a lot of partnerships and time in 515 00:29:32,973 --> 00:29:35,373 Speaker 6: the medal. So yeah, I guess it's pretty satisfying to 516 00:29:35,893 --> 00:29:38,613 Speaker 6: sort of do that and coming off not much cricket 517 00:29:38,613 --> 00:29:40,773 Speaker 6: for me, I guess that's probably the most satisfying thing. 518 00:29:41,013 --> 00:29:44,253 Speaker 2: They've been frustrations along the way, injury and some low 519 00:29:44,293 --> 00:29:46,653 Speaker 2: scores must have been certisfying reward. 520 00:29:47,373 --> 00:29:50,933 Speaker 6: Yeah, pretty incredible and obviously grateful to all the people 521 00:29:51,013 --> 00:29:52,853 Speaker 6: that have helped me get to sort of this point 522 00:29:52,893 --> 00:29:55,293 Speaker 6: and one of the hours with me over the last 523 00:29:55,293 --> 00:29:57,773 Speaker 6: couple of years. And I guess being out there with 524 00:29:57,973 --> 00:30:00,293 Speaker 6: Susi as well at the start and having that partnership 525 00:30:00,293 --> 00:30:01,973 Speaker 6: at the startup and that sort of sent me in 526 00:30:02,333 --> 00:30:04,853 Speaker 6: a more of a calm state out there. And yeah, 527 00:30:04,893 --> 00:30:07,533 Speaker 6: I guess being able to see her record for fifties 528 00:30:07,533 --> 00:30:09,693 Speaker 6: and hundred is pretty incredible sort of be out there 529 00:30:09,893 --> 00:30:11,893 Speaker 6: with a legend like that and sort of doing that. 530 00:30:12,013 --> 00:30:14,893 Speaker 6: And I guess being out there when the next wicket 531 00:30:14,933 --> 00:30:17,573 Speaker 6: with Emma McCloud is obviously really young and new into 532 00:30:17,573 --> 00:30:19,533 Speaker 6: the team and sort of had that fresh view. I 533 00:30:19,533 --> 00:30:21,773 Speaker 6: think that sort of shows where our team is at 534 00:30:21,813 --> 00:30:23,653 Speaker 6: at the moment, and I think that's the great balance 535 00:30:23,693 --> 00:30:24,173 Speaker 6: that we've got. 536 00:30:24,093 --> 00:30:24,573 Speaker 1: At the moment. 537 00:30:24,773 --> 00:30:27,173 Speaker 2: Would have given you time to work on your game 538 00:30:27,253 --> 00:30:28,773 Speaker 2: during the injury break, That's true. 539 00:30:28,893 --> 00:30:31,493 Speaker 6: We'll focus on a lot over the past couple of 540 00:30:31,493 --> 00:30:35,253 Speaker 6: months while being injured about rotating strike and heading straight. 541 00:30:35,333 --> 00:30:37,813 Speaker 6: So that's probably been my biggest work on And so yeah, 542 00:30:37,853 --> 00:30:39,493 Speaker 6: for that to come out there and all that effort 543 00:30:39,533 --> 00:30:42,413 Speaker 6: that I've been putting in the last few months while 544 00:30:42,533 --> 00:30:44,213 Speaker 6: not being able to play cricket and see it out 545 00:30:44,213 --> 00:30:46,493 Speaker 6: there on the park, I guess was probably the most pleasant. 546 00:30:46,573 --> 00:30:46,813 Speaker 3: Thanks. 547 00:30:47,253 --> 00:30:50,533 Speaker 2: So one hundred and thirty eight days without competitive cricket. 548 00:30:50,893 --> 00:30:52,853 Speaker 6: Crazy to think that it's been about four or five 549 00:30:52,853 --> 00:30:55,253 Speaker 6: months since our last T twenty games and a lot 550 00:30:55,293 --> 00:30:57,373 Speaker 6: of the girls have been playing in a supersmashion in 551 00:30:57,453 --> 00:30:59,613 Speaker 6: the domestic scene, and I think being able to see 552 00:30:59,813 --> 00:31:01,413 Speaker 6: some of the scores that are being put up and 553 00:31:01,533 --> 00:31:03,573 Speaker 6: sort of the aggression that we're wanting to have as 554 00:31:03,613 --> 00:31:05,813 Speaker 6: a white fans team sort of be replicated in the 555 00:31:05,893 --> 00:31:08,893 Speaker 6: domestic scene. I think it's going to be pretty exciting 556 00:31:08,933 --> 00:31:10,493 Speaker 6: to see what our team sort of puts out on 557 00:31:10,533 --> 00:31:13,093 Speaker 6: the park and when o Sri Lanka. Obviously ham Tamara 558 00:31:13,173 --> 00:31:14,933 Speaker 6: at the top is one of the best T twenty 559 00:31:14,933 --> 00:31:16,733 Speaker 6: players in the world, so I think it's going to 560 00:31:16,773 --> 00:31:19,453 Speaker 6: be a really good matches that were going to be 561 00:31:19,453 --> 00:31:21,693 Speaker 6: coming up against. And yeah, excited to see how this 562 00:31:21,773 --> 00:31:24,373 Speaker 6: team goes after a couple of good ones and the 563 00:31:24,373 --> 00:31:25,533 Speaker 6: fifty over stuff as well. 564 00:31:26,453 --> 00:31:27,973 Speaker 2: Not a lot you can read into it at the 565 00:31:28,013 --> 00:31:31,093 Speaker 2: stage against the Sri Lanka. They've got to Pakistan coming 566 00:31:31,133 --> 00:31:33,853 Speaker 2: as well, but you look at their injury list, I 567 00:31:33,893 --> 00:31:35,773 Speaker 2: could go through a whole list. I think there's about 568 00:31:36,093 --> 00:31:39,413 Speaker 2: nine who have got injuries of their frontline players. So 569 00:31:39,693 --> 00:31:42,373 Speaker 2: more than anything there else, they're giving other players an 570 00:31:42,373 --> 00:31:46,693 Speaker 2: opportunity and I think some quality young players. I've watched 571 00:31:46,733 --> 00:31:49,493 Speaker 2: the women's game against the Sri Lanka and I've seen 572 00:31:49,533 --> 00:31:53,573 Speaker 2: a good attacking attitude about their play and seeing the 573 00:31:53,653 --> 00:31:56,493 Speaker 2: skills on show of some of the new players who've 574 00:31:56,693 --> 00:31:59,453 Speaker 2: worked their way through the Halliburton Johnson and Dream eleven 575 00:31:59,533 --> 00:32:02,653 Speaker 2: Super Smash competition. So, you know, interesting to see how 576 00:32:02,773 --> 00:32:07,573 Speaker 2: we'll go in the T twenty series against Sri Lanka 577 00:32:07,613 --> 00:32:10,613 Speaker 2: because they're basically the world champions at the moment of 578 00:32:10,773 --> 00:32:13,653 Speaker 2: T twenty. And then of course they've got Pakistan coming 579 00:32:13,933 --> 00:32:15,573 Speaker 2: and you may well see some of those because you'll 580 00:32:15,573 --> 00:32:17,933 Speaker 2: be at games somewhere around your. 581 00:32:17,933 --> 00:32:25,933 Speaker 3: Hill somewhere somewhere might be picked and wads ground grounds 582 00:32:25,933 --> 00:32:31,413 Speaker 3: a bit small, exactly good to see some new names. 583 00:32:32,493 --> 00:32:41,213 Speaker 3: I listened to the third match at Nelson Briilling left 584 00:32:41,333 --> 00:32:45,173 Speaker 3: armor from Auckland. That's yeah, that's that's nice to see. 585 00:32:45,253 --> 00:32:48,853 Speaker 3: She bowls both sides of the wicket, which is excellent. 586 00:32:49,053 --> 00:32:50,493 Speaker 3: She got a couple of you know, a couple of 587 00:32:50,493 --> 00:32:54,893 Speaker 3: wickets in the second game. I think so that's nice 588 00:32:54,893 --> 00:32:59,573 Speaker 3: to see Polly English the keeper. It looks quite attacking. 589 00:33:00,653 --> 00:33:02,773 Speaker 3: She got a thirty i think in the second match 590 00:33:02,813 --> 00:33:05,213 Speaker 3: and are not out in the second not many didn't 591 00:33:05,213 --> 00:33:08,853 Speaker 3: get a chance. And then there's a number three. The 592 00:33:09,573 --> 00:33:15,173 Speaker 3: new girl from the CD is Emma McLeod someone like that. Yeah, 593 00:33:15,253 --> 00:33:18,573 Speaker 3: so she's a right hand bat. Hasn't made quite so 594 00:33:18,653 --> 00:33:21,413 Speaker 3: many yet, but good to see those new names in there. 595 00:33:22,133 --> 00:33:29,253 Speaker 3: It pushes people like is he Grace? She? Is he Gays? Sorry? 596 00:33:29,413 --> 00:33:33,853 Speaker 3: Is he Gays? Is she is she going to keep 597 00:33:34,013 --> 00:33:36,253 Speaker 3: now or does she have to make some changes? 598 00:33:36,973 --> 00:33:39,173 Speaker 2: She's one of those injured now. She's just added to 599 00:33:39,253 --> 00:33:42,213 Speaker 2: the injury list that has just been released by New 600 00:33:42,333 --> 00:33:47,933 Speaker 2: Zealand Cricket that she is not able to play. Gays 601 00:33:48,213 --> 00:33:51,853 Speaker 2: James is another one who's just new to the side yet, 602 00:33:52,133 --> 00:33:55,053 Speaker 2: and the Jets and along and of course not having 603 00:33:55,133 --> 00:34:00,613 Speaker 2: the other players that they have had, so you know 604 00:34:01,253 --> 00:34:05,213 Speaker 2: it is giving them some opportunities and that's that's going 605 00:34:05,293 --> 00:34:06,333 Speaker 2: to be encouraging for them. 606 00:34:06,693 --> 00:34:08,933 Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, the od the eyes have finished, so it's 607 00:34:08,933 --> 00:34:12,813 Speaker 3: t twenty time premature really to, as you say, claim 608 00:34:12,893 --> 00:34:15,893 Speaker 3: too much about the New Zealand side. But Sri Lanka 609 00:34:15,973 --> 00:34:19,053 Speaker 3: didn't they beat New Zealand last time they were here? 610 00:34:19,373 --> 00:34:21,973 Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, Well. 611 00:34:21,933 --> 00:34:25,493 Speaker 3: You know that's good that New Zealander pushed ahead, keep pushing, 612 00:34:25,573 --> 00:34:29,813 Speaker 3: keep the standards up athleticism and who knows they've got 613 00:34:29,853 --> 00:34:31,373 Speaker 3: the Assies coming up at some stage? 614 00:34:31,413 --> 00:34:35,573 Speaker 2: Haven't they got some email traffic? Jerry? But we'll have 615 00:34:35,613 --> 00:34:36,933 Speaker 2: a look at those next week. You just want have 616 00:34:36,933 --> 00:34:40,013 Speaker 2: a quick word about the Plunket shield which is now 617 00:34:40,533 --> 00:34:44,533 Speaker 2: through five rounds. Northern Districts at the top, Wellington second, 618 00:34:44,533 --> 00:34:48,813 Speaker 2: Canterbury third. Wellington got up over Otago to get him 619 00:34:48,853 --> 00:34:51,373 Speaker 2: the second place, but Central Districts is a side that 620 00:34:51,453 --> 00:34:55,653 Speaker 2: interests me because I just still have concerns as to 621 00:34:55,773 --> 00:35:01,053 Speaker 2: why Tom Bruce doesn't feature more often in Black Caps contention. 622 00:35:01,173 --> 00:35:04,173 Speaker 2: Here's a man who scored a three hundred and forty five. 623 00:35:04,293 --> 00:35:07,773 Speaker 2: Only one player in New Zealand first class cricket, when 624 00:35:07,813 --> 00:35:10,813 Speaker 2: you think about the great players we've had, has beaten 625 00:35:10,973 --> 00:35:16,173 Speaker 2: that score, Bert Suckliffe twice. Totally players. Bruce is a 626 00:35:16,253 --> 00:35:18,533 Speaker 2: right handed a bit more aggressive than BT Suckliffe might 627 00:35:18,573 --> 00:35:23,173 Speaker 2: have been, but he averages in first class cricket forty eight. 628 00:35:24,053 --> 00:35:27,453 Speaker 2: We would have died for players to average forty eight 629 00:35:27,493 --> 00:35:29,893 Speaker 2: to get into the Test team in times gone past? 630 00:35:30,133 --> 00:35:33,653 Speaker 2: How does a guy who averages forty eight not get 631 00:35:33,693 --> 00:35:36,013 Speaker 2: considered for New Zealand sides anywhere? 632 00:35:36,693 --> 00:35:40,213 Speaker 3: Well? Well he has, hasn't he. He's played ten twenties, 633 00:35:41,293 --> 00:35:44,773 Speaker 3: he's played. I guess the first point you would say 634 00:35:44,973 --> 00:35:47,693 Speaker 3: is that it's just unfortunate timing, isn't it? That it 635 00:35:47,733 --> 00:35:53,853 Speaker 3: hasn't been kind to someone like Tom Bruce. I saw him. 636 00:35:54,573 --> 00:35:58,253 Speaker 3: He led the what CD at the base and didn't he? 637 00:35:59,173 --> 00:36:02,293 Speaker 3: They won the Super Smash there they played Canterbury and 638 00:36:02,293 --> 00:36:06,613 Speaker 3: won that. He has played in the Bangladesh League for 639 00:36:06,653 --> 00:36:09,613 Speaker 3: the Chatter Graham, hasn't he? And he has played in 640 00:36:09,693 --> 00:36:14,733 Speaker 3: England for both short form and longer form cricket as well. 641 00:36:15,893 --> 00:36:19,333 Speaker 3: So he's a middle order player. He has captain the 642 00:36:19,373 --> 00:36:25,373 Speaker 3: New Zealand A side, so he's there. And but as 643 00:36:25,413 --> 00:36:28,093 Speaker 3: you're saying, would you have who does he replace Wads? 644 00:36:28,493 --> 00:36:29,853 Speaker 3: He's a middle order player. 645 00:36:30,973 --> 00:36:33,453 Speaker 2: Well that is the same issue that they have when 646 00:36:33,493 --> 00:36:35,893 Speaker 2: they leave Devon Conway out of the New Zealand side. 647 00:36:35,973 --> 00:36:39,253 Speaker 2: You get in by form, don't you by performance? And 648 00:36:39,293 --> 00:36:43,613 Speaker 2: therefore you make your way. Here's a man who gets 649 00:36:43,653 --> 00:36:47,213 Speaker 2: the top run scorer or close to the top run scorer. 650 00:36:47,573 --> 00:36:51,413 Speaker 2: In the last two or three seasons. He scores centuries regularly. 651 00:36:51,933 --> 00:36:54,653 Speaker 2: I just can't believe that he doesn't even come into 652 00:36:54,813 --> 00:36:57,853 Speaker 2: even into squads, you know. I mean, I've got to 653 00:36:57,853 --> 00:36:59,773 Speaker 2: not the I squad going to be coming out very shortly. 654 00:36:59,813 --> 00:37:02,213 Speaker 2: Will he feature in that? I very much doubt it. 655 00:37:02,893 --> 00:37:06,933 Speaker 2: You know, you pick players on form and that you know, 656 00:37:06,973 --> 00:37:10,493 Speaker 2: that's basically what happened. Devin Conway is out because the 657 00:37:10,533 --> 00:37:13,693 Speaker 2: others were scoring and he had to be parachuted out 658 00:37:13,693 --> 00:37:14,413 Speaker 2: the back, didn't. 659 00:37:14,173 --> 00:37:18,453 Speaker 3: The Hey yep, and I'm sure that'll be something to 660 00:37:18,493 --> 00:37:20,773 Speaker 3: do with one of the emails that where was where 661 00:37:21,013 --> 00:37:25,973 Speaker 3: was Conway? And he did start well And that's quite 662 00:37:26,013 --> 00:37:28,573 Speaker 3: good though for a side. If you keep pushing and 663 00:37:28,573 --> 00:37:33,213 Speaker 3: pushing and you get internal you know, competition between players 664 00:37:33,573 --> 00:37:36,133 Speaker 3: and you're having to push yourself all the time to play. 665 00:37:36,773 --> 00:37:40,533 Speaker 3: I think that lifts everybody training has become more you know, 666 00:37:41,253 --> 00:37:44,093 Speaker 3: they're much more competitive. You want to have a good 667 00:37:44,133 --> 00:37:46,853 Speaker 3: showing at the nets because you're wanting to impress people 668 00:37:46,933 --> 00:37:50,613 Speaker 3: and so on. So anyway, yep, he's got to beat 669 00:37:50,653 --> 00:37:55,693 Speaker 3: Mitchell who's averaging you know, he's thirty four five hundred's 670 00:37:55,733 --> 00:37:59,213 Speaker 3: and a few fifties, and he'd be averaging over forty 671 00:37:59,293 --> 00:38:02,053 Speaker 3: in test cricket Revender. I don't think he's going to 672 00:38:02,053 --> 00:38:06,213 Speaker 3: replace Revendrew's twenty five. And then you've got Blundle at 673 00:38:06,293 --> 00:38:09,173 Speaker 3: six who's averaging thirty four as a keeper and got 674 00:38:09,213 --> 00:38:12,813 Speaker 3: five hundreds. It's not it's not an easy place to 675 00:38:12,893 --> 00:38:13,293 Speaker 3: break in. 676 00:38:13,693 --> 00:38:18,493 Speaker 2: I suppose all selections are a difficult time and more 677 00:38:18,493 --> 00:38:22,293 Speaker 2: players deserve to be considered. Then I just think that 678 00:38:22,373 --> 00:38:25,133 Speaker 2: the Bruce one is quite an interesting one. 679 00:38:25,173 --> 00:38:25,533 Speaker 3: In mind. 680 00:38:25,613 --> 00:38:28,973 Speaker 2: We'll see what happens when the ODI team is named. Jerry, 681 00:38:30,093 --> 00:38:32,853 Speaker 2: you can go put your feed up if you so wish, 682 00:38:33,053 --> 00:38:36,493 Speaker 2: get ready for the Pakistan series. Looking forward to seeing 683 00:38:36,693 --> 00:38:39,573 Speaker 2: the players playing back home, and it'll be interesting to 684 00:38:39,573 --> 00:38:44,573 Speaker 2: see what kind of ODI side they do pick after 685 00:38:44,693 --> 00:38:47,893 Speaker 2: having got onto the final the Champions Trophy. So you know, 686 00:38:48,053 --> 00:38:50,053 Speaker 2: interesting stuff ahead for the next month or so. 687 00:38:51,093 --> 00:38:55,173 Speaker 3: Yep, that's right. Words And of course music is Music's 688 00:38:55,173 --> 00:38:59,893 Speaker 3: the next thing for me. I've got to say, it's uh, 689 00:39:00,253 --> 00:39:02,933 Speaker 3: we don't play the Love Train, which I think was 690 00:39:03,013 --> 00:39:04,893 Speaker 3: quite high in your top hundreds. 691 00:39:05,293 --> 00:39:06,973 Speaker 2: Oh that's in my top five. 692 00:39:08,453 --> 00:39:11,653 Speaker 3: Absolutely, it was always up. There wasn't they the o 693 00:39:11,853 --> 00:39:16,813 Speaker 3: J I'll remember forget you standing standing in your doorway 694 00:39:16,893 --> 00:39:21,413 Speaker 3: with most of your families building out, gonna sail on 695 00:39:21,453 --> 00:39:22,293 Speaker 3: the love train. 696 00:39:24,653 --> 00:39:26,893 Speaker 2: I've annoyed quite a lot of people, actually. 697 00:39:28,173 --> 00:39:29,253 Speaker 3: People of the world. 698 00:39:31,373 --> 00:39:36,013 Speaker 2: All I want to know.
