1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:02,880
Speaker 1: Eighteen past five four four.

2
00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:04,160
Speaker 2: Let's try that one again.

3
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:08,000
Speaker 1: Eighteen past four. Darcy Waldgrave's right here. How are you hello, Darcian?

4
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:10,680
Speaker 1: Very well, thank you. So Patrick's back for the Blues.

5
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:11,600
Speaker 1: So the Blues are going to win.

6
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:14,520
Speaker 2: Paddy two ups has made the return. That's sir Patrick

7
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:17,040
Speaker 2: two Blotto for those who don't know his nickname. This

8
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:20,840
Speaker 2: is very similar to what Sam Whitelook white Lock did

9
00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 2: last year when he decided to miraculously come back from

10
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:26,560
Speaker 2: injury and play a full eighty minutes for the Crusaders

11
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:30,040
Speaker 2: to win that title. Of course, that was Scott Robertson's decision.

12
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:32,080
Speaker 2: I'm sure that Ian Foster wasn't overly pleased him. The

13
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:33,760
Speaker 2: fact the hold on that's one of our key all blacks.

14
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:37,239
Speaker 2: Don't you dare break him? So this time around the

15
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 2: medics who said it was going to be sixty seven

16
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:40,920
Speaker 2: weeks only to be a couple of weeks. Nahn has

17
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:43,239
Speaker 2: media ligaments, fine, should be right with test that all

18
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:46,159
Speaker 2: he's going to play. Paddy plain Need does not want

19
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,200
Speaker 2: to not be involved. Yeah, possibly the only Blue success

20
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,479
Speaker 2: in many years. He wants to be there. So I

21
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:55,280
Speaker 2: don't see Scott Robertson the or Blacks coach who pulled

22
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 2: the same trick last year, go hey, what are you

23
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 2: doing your guy? See goose gam to gotcha, you do

24
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,759
Speaker 2: whatever you want. It's great for Patrick. I wouldn't say

25
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 2: it definitely means the Blues are going to win. There's

26
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 2: so much going in. The blueses favor forty four thousand people,

27
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 2: and the Chiefs just love taking big brother scalps, don't they.

28
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 2: They've been particularly depted over the last few years, so

29
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,920
Speaker 2: this is going to be exciting. I just hope he survives,

30
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,120
Speaker 2: Iby gets through the eighty minutes, and I hope for

31
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 2: all Black prospects that maybe after sixty minutes, stern or

32
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,759
Speaker 2: depends if they're winning on mirthful vern pulls them from

33
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 2: the park.

34
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: Dasy.

35
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 3: I don't want to be the guy who said I

36
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 3: told you so, Okay, but in August twenty twenty, I

37
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 3: told you that this was going to happen to cricket.

38
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 2: And now look, how can you remember back four years?

39
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, twenty twenty two. Sorry, right, that wasn't you,

40
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 3: That was me twenty twenty two. It's only two years,

41
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 3: only two years. And the reason I can name the

42
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 3: date is because there was an article in the Economists

43
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,120
Speaker 3: called the Footballization of Cricket.

44
00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 1: I read it and talked to you about.

45
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 2: It, and what did you say exactly?

46
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 3: I said, well, this is the way that our cricket

47
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 3: team is going to go right. All of our good

48
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 3: players are going to end up playing for the IPL

49
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 3: and the big, big money making tournaments and stuff, and

50
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:08,520
Speaker 3: the Black Caps will come secondary.

51
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:12,320
Speaker 2: Slowly, bit surely. At Pills why started with tree ghetto law?

52
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 2: How long can players play for the national team before

53
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:21,680
Speaker 2: being given dispensation through contract to actually not play for

54
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:26,360
Speaker 2: their national site? And I would say every different player

55
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 2: there is a different set of rules for it.

56
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 1: It's about how how much we need them, basically right, and.

57
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 2: It's the negotiations. Heith Mills joins us in New Zealand

58
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 2: Cricket Players Association boss Tonight on Sports Talk Up After

59
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 2: Seven to talk about that Bolt's case, Williamson's case. You're

60
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 2: hardly going to say, you guys don't deserve It's like

61
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 2: getting yourself go. You want to come back and play

62
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:46,400
Speaker 2: a wee bit for us. Fantastic does not.

63
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 1: Extend the same courtesy to Lucky Ferguson.

64
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 2: Well, depends where Locky Ferguson sits in the peaking order

65
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 2: if they deem to think that he is valuable enough

66
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 2: to let him go away. The bigger question here is

67
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 2: not this, and it's what the schedule into nationally looks

68
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 2: like for global cricket and who's running this because as

69
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 2: we know, all the money is in T twenty. Plainly obvious.

70
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,200
Speaker 2: The T twenty leads popping up every a lot of them,

71
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:12,799
Speaker 2: backed by the BCCI, bought a control cricket and they've

72
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 2: got all the money, so they've got all the control

73
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 2: of the golden rule. It's fairly simple. So what does

74
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 2: the ICC do as far as putting an essentially meaningless

75
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 2: bilateral series jammed in between them where players really don't

76
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 2: want to play for the risk of breaking themselves, thus

77
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:31,520
Speaker 2: taking them away from consideration in this T twenty series.

78
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 2: So that's got to be looked at. On that global level,

79
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 2: all the players have to come together, This is the

80
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 2: boards and the franchises and everybody else and go right,

81
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 2: we need international cricket because that produces superstars, which in

82
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 2: turn go on to be superstars in T twenty cricket.

83
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 2: So yeah, how are they organized their windows? Is there

84
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 2: a want to organize those windows. Who's control of those windows?

85
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 2: There are so many questions around us, and Heath is

86
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 2: going to join us this evening to talk about that,

87
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 2: because I get the sense nothing's had and for a

88
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 2: very long time. Why would anything change in the future?

89
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 3: To be fair though, To be fair, the South African

90
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 3: Cricket tournament has only just started up, so you could

91
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 3: argue that we've sort of seen the signs of it,

92
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 3: but it's really accelerating now.

93
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 1: So now the precious we saw.

94
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 2: The signs last year, didn't we Because it all saw this,

95
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 2: it all started up and then they sent over a

96
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 2: B team. I'm doing pretty well for.

97
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:22,840
Speaker 1: Look at this Hither.

98
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 3: You're right, I remember you saying that this will be

99
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:26,280
Speaker 3: the demise of the national team.

100
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,800
Speaker 2: The question is was that twenty twenty or twenty twenty two? Texted?

101
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,600
Speaker 3: Do you remember that twenty That's when I said it

102
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:36,279
Speaker 3: was in nine saying it for you aged well, thank.
