Now we don't get in. 4 00:00:22,933 --> 00:00:24,773 Speaker 3: It's a trick. It is out. 5 00:00:25,093 --> 00:00:30,653 Speaker 2: The test is over. Couldn't diss a beauty? It is 6 00:00:30,693 --> 00:00:31,893 Speaker 2: out and. 7 00:00:31,973 --> 00:00:35,133 Speaker 4: Here he goes. This delivery has in the users to goold. 8 00:00:37,253 --> 00:00:40,653 Speaker 1: On the front foot with Brian Wabble and Jeremy Cody 9 00:00:40,973 --> 00:00:44,853 Speaker 1: powered by News Talks head B at iHeartRadio. 10 00:00:47,133 --> 00:00:50,493 Speaker 2: Hello on the front foot, back with you doing Australia 11 00:00:50,773 --> 00:00:53,173 Speaker 2: out for the world secreted but I got a little 12 00:00:53,213 --> 00:00:57,053 Speaker 2: bit Curtains in the black pat Afghanistan the surprise packet 13 00:00:57,453 --> 00:01:01,053 Speaker 2: or are they? What did the associates offer the event? 14 00:01:01,253 --> 00:01:04,213 Speaker 2: Kane Williamson has opted out of a central contract. Has 15 00:01:04,253 --> 00:01:07,693 Speaker 2: he earned that right? And has Test cricket lost its 16 00:01:07,773 --> 00:01:11,173 Speaker 2: favor despite all the top players knowing it's the format 17 00:01:11,253 --> 00:01:14,493 Speaker 2: they enjoyed playing. Remember last week on the Front Foot 18 00:01:14,653 --> 00:01:19,173 Speaker 2: Andrew Wilson and Jeremy Coney passed comment about players and 19 00:01:19,373 --> 00:01:20,133 Speaker 2: their contracts. 20 00:01:20,933 --> 00:01:23,173 Speaker 4: It's sort of ray in one my mind as you 21 00:01:23,253 --> 00:01:25,933 Speaker 4: were saying that you mentioned contracts. Do we now have 22 00:01:26,093 --> 00:01:29,813 Speaker 4: to start thinking of our particularly our T twenty part 23 00:01:30,013 --> 00:01:33,493 Speaker 4: of our game. When you look at it, we've got well, 24 00:01:33,533 --> 00:01:34,773 Speaker 4: I don't know if you know what it's called. It 25 00:01:34,933 --> 00:01:39,893 Speaker 4: changes its name every year. But that domestic game where 26 00:01:39,973 --> 00:01:43,893 Speaker 4: the black Caps don't really play. We don't have a 27 00:01:44,013 --> 00:01:47,413 Speaker 4: franchise game here. We were tracting overseas players for the 28 00:01:47,493 --> 00:01:52,733 Speaker 4: T twenty component of our season. Should we allow some 29 00:01:52,933 --> 00:01:58,093 Speaker 4: of our players to perhaps pop away and play some 30 00:01:58,253 --> 00:02:02,213 Speaker 4: of those and get and rub shoulders in franchise games 31 00:02:02,293 --> 00:02:06,373 Speaker 4: if they can be selected in that level, at that level. 32 00:02:07,733 --> 00:02:12,613 Speaker 2: And me down, Cain Williamson revealed he wasn't signing with NZZ, 33 00:02:13,133 --> 00:02:17,533 Speaker 2: but looking at franchise options while still professing loyalty to 34 00:02:17,613 --> 00:02:20,213 Speaker 2: the New Zealand game. Jeremy Kaine, did you have some 35 00:02:20,333 --> 00:02:22,173 Speaker 2: inside running there and strike a chord with you? 36 00:02:24,053 --> 00:02:28,613 Speaker 4: No? Hello words, high olders, Look, No, I didn't. I 37 00:02:28,813 --> 00:02:32,973 Speaker 4: just felt that I was really talking about, you know 38 00:02:33,213 --> 00:02:35,573 Speaker 4: the fact that Clayer is very near to the New 39 00:02:35,693 --> 00:02:38,213 Speaker 4: Zealand set up, or have perhaps played for New Zealand 40 00:02:38,253 --> 00:02:42,893 Speaker 4: but are not established yet, might think about not playing 41 00:02:42,973 --> 00:02:47,733 Speaker 4: the super smash our T twenty domestic and going to 42 00:02:47,853 --> 00:02:53,013 Speaker 4: other places as part of a pathway to establish themselves 43 00:02:53,093 --> 00:02:54,973 Speaker 4: a little bit better at a stronger tournament. 44 00:02:55,093 --> 00:02:55,573 Speaker 3: That was all. 45 00:02:56,573 --> 00:02:59,053 Speaker 4: But now this has certainly raised it a bit more, 46 00:02:59,173 --> 00:02:59,533 Speaker 4: hasn't it? 47 00:03:00,093 --> 00:03:02,933 Speaker 2: Yes, certainly changes things. Andrew Ornison back with us again. 48 00:03:03,613 --> 00:03:06,813 Speaker 2: I guess something like this was going to happen anyway. 49 00:03:06,853 --> 00:03:09,773 Speaker 2: It's happened with Trent Bolt, hasn't me? Nichem and Kane 50 00:03:09,813 --> 00:03:14,093 Speaker 2: Williamson is deciding his options. I think he's earned the right, 51 00:03:14,173 --> 00:03:14,453 Speaker 2: hasn't he. 52 00:03:14,773 --> 00:03:16,173 Speaker 5: Look, I think he has to a point. 53 00:03:16,933 --> 00:03:19,973 Speaker 6: And I think that New Zealand cricket system, with that 54 00:03:20,093 --> 00:03:23,573 Speaker 6: contract system, that they haven't undermined the integrity by doing 55 00:03:23,613 --> 00:03:25,573 Speaker 6: what they've done. They've basically when you know he wants 56 00:03:25,613 --> 00:03:28,293 Speaker 6: I think about three to four weeks to plan that 57 00:03:28,413 --> 00:03:32,053 Speaker 6: South African League where he's got clearly a deal's that's 58 00:03:32,173 --> 00:03:35,053 Speaker 6: established there. Presumably it's worth a fit of it to 59 00:03:35,093 --> 00:03:37,613 Speaker 6: be able to match what is on for the contract, 60 00:03:37,653 --> 00:03:41,533 Speaker 6: given he'd be the top player. But I think that 61 00:03:41,613 --> 00:03:43,413 Speaker 6: if they were to make an exception there, then it 62 00:03:43,453 --> 00:03:45,733 Speaker 6: would be you know, a further domino effect, if you 63 00:03:45,853 --> 00:03:48,413 Speaker 6: like we were already seeing. Speaking of domino effects, I 64 00:03:48,493 --> 00:03:51,373 Speaker 6: mean we've seen it with like you said, with Bolts 65 00:03:51,453 --> 00:03:54,133 Speaker 6: and Niche, them et cetera over a period of time 66 00:03:54,853 --> 00:03:59,013 Speaker 6: to ground Holm and others. And I suspect that it's 67 00:03:59,093 --> 00:04:02,573 Speaker 6: going to continue to be something that New Zealand cricket 68 00:04:02,613 --> 00:04:04,173 Speaker 6: are going to be to be across. Given the New 69 00:04:04,253 --> 00:04:07,293 Speaker 6: Zealand players don't as much as say the counterparts in 70 00:04:07,413 --> 00:04:12,133 Speaker 6: India or Australia or England and that central contract space, 71 00:04:13,413 --> 00:04:15,573 Speaker 6: there's going to have to be an element of flexibility 72 00:04:15,693 --> 00:04:18,213 Speaker 6: there and Williamson obviously feels that mean presumably he'll add 73 00:04:18,253 --> 00:04:20,493 Speaker 6: others to that if he's not on a contract just 74 00:04:20,613 --> 00:04:23,173 Speaker 6: through the course of the year, but he has I 75 00:04:23,213 --> 00:04:26,053 Speaker 6: think the key difference is he's probably professed his keys 76 00:04:26,053 --> 00:04:29,613 Speaker 6: have still played internationals more so than Trent Bolt when 77 00:04:29,653 --> 00:04:30,733 Speaker 6: he made that decision. 78 00:04:30,813 --> 00:04:33,693 Speaker 5: So yeah, it's a fascinating watching brief. 79 00:04:35,293 --> 00:04:39,453 Speaker 2: The IPL side basically run those South African franchises anyway, 80 00:04:39,453 --> 00:04:42,373 Speaker 2: and I think they're in the United States too, aren't they, Jerry. So, 81 00:04:42,413 --> 00:04:44,213 Speaker 2: I mean it's all a matter of just an extension 82 00:04:44,253 --> 00:04:45,813 Speaker 2: of the IPL to some extent, isn't it. 83 00:04:46,733 --> 00:04:48,653 Speaker 4: Well it is. I don't know whether it will play 84 00:04:48,693 --> 00:04:52,933 Speaker 4: as much wadds as that. I mean, January is the 85 00:04:53,053 --> 00:04:55,093 Speaker 4: time that we're talking about, isn't it in the New 86 00:04:55,213 --> 00:05:00,373 Speaker 4: Zealand season. New Zealand tend to be playing holiday white 87 00:05:00,413 --> 00:05:03,133 Speaker 4: ball cricket, don't they at that time with the Super Smash. 88 00:05:05,333 --> 00:05:09,053 Speaker 4: There are other options of course for players in French cricket, 89 00:05:09,573 --> 00:05:11,933 Speaker 4: whether you know there are three or four going on 90 00:05:12,053 --> 00:05:15,093 Speaker 4: at that time. South Africa has been mentioned, Dubai, the 91 00:05:15,213 --> 00:05:18,213 Speaker 4: ILT twenty is going on, The Big Bash has started 92 00:05:18,253 --> 00:05:22,413 Speaker 4: in December and goes to January, the Bangladesh one as well, 93 00:05:22,933 --> 00:05:27,973 Speaker 4: so there are options there for players. Williamson looks at 94 00:05:28,053 --> 00:05:31,413 Speaker 4: it and says, no, I don't want to play Super 95 00:05:31,453 --> 00:05:34,093 Speaker 4: Smash because at my central contract, says I've got to. 96 00:05:35,333 --> 00:05:37,093 Speaker 4: I don't want to do that. I'm thirty three, I've 97 00:05:37,093 --> 00:05:39,933 Speaker 4: got three kids. I want to do what Bolt's doing, like, 98 00:05:40,133 --> 00:05:41,973 Speaker 4: you know, take the family on the road with me. 99 00:05:43,413 --> 00:05:45,773 Speaker 4: How long does he want to keep doing that? I 100 00:05:45,933 --> 00:05:48,493 Speaker 4: do I don't know whether I question it, but he 101 00:05:48,573 --> 00:05:51,973 Speaker 4: says he wants to prolong his career. Is he merely 102 00:05:52,133 --> 00:05:56,013 Speaker 4: changing from a lower grade T twenty Super Smash now 103 00:05:56,093 --> 00:05:59,213 Speaker 4: for a higher grade and better paid and his family's there? 104 00:05:59,973 --> 00:06:03,213 Speaker 4: I mean, the only thing he's really not playing is Odiyes, 105 00:06:03,293 --> 00:06:07,133 Speaker 4: isn't it. There aren't many of those nowadays he'll miss 106 00:06:07,213 --> 00:06:10,893 Speaker 4: some Sri Lanka, Odouani and t twenties. But yeah, I look, 107 00:06:11,693 --> 00:06:14,573 Speaker 4: I don't know has Bolt. Bolt's got a different arrangement, 108 00:06:14,693 --> 00:06:18,733 Speaker 4: hasn't he? Bolt's not playing the isn't isn't he Wasn't 109 00:06:18,733 --> 00:06:21,533 Speaker 4: he our best left arm bowler, you know, the same 110 00:06:21,613 --> 00:06:25,613 Speaker 4: as the best batsman? Does he get a casual contract? 111 00:06:26,933 --> 00:06:29,133 Speaker 4: Who's his replacement? Now? For New Zealand? 112 00:06:30,093 --> 00:06:33,253 Speaker 2: He gets paid by what contract he takes. Well, he's 113 00:06:33,253 --> 00:06:34,933 Speaker 2: not going to be playing internationally? Is he's not going 114 00:06:34,973 --> 00:06:37,053 Speaker 2: to play tournament stuff? So is he going to play 115 00:06:37,093 --> 00:06:42,133 Speaker 2: anything for New Zealand? And that's just done basically on well, 116 00:06:42,493 --> 00:06:45,253 Speaker 2: we'll pay you this to play this tournament pretty much, 117 00:06:45,333 --> 00:06:45,613 Speaker 2: isn't it. 118 00:06:46,533 --> 00:06:49,733 Speaker 4: I thought Bolt was keen to go and play at 119 00:06:49,813 --> 00:06:52,213 Speaker 4: bay Oval in a test match. Whdn't he said? I'm 120 00:06:52,253 --> 00:06:55,173 Speaker 4: just down the road I like to play, you know. 121 00:06:55,333 --> 00:06:58,893 Speaker 4: So there these are starting to get slightly They're not 122 00:06:59,093 --> 00:07:03,693 Speaker 4: totally muddied waters, but they are slightly Is it the 123 00:07:03,813 --> 00:07:06,613 Speaker 4: case of our best player? You know, one rule for 124 00:07:06,733 --> 00:07:10,413 Speaker 4: one and not for others. You know, I do get 125 00:07:10,533 --> 00:07:13,653 Speaker 4: slightly concerned about are we going to become a wee 126 00:07:13,853 --> 00:07:18,173 Speaker 4: bit like the West Indies and their board having to 127 00:07:18,333 --> 00:07:22,493 Speaker 4: confront lots of players on different contracts. They're trying not 128 00:07:22,653 --> 00:07:27,213 Speaker 4: to but if they are determined about determined about it, 129 00:07:28,693 --> 00:07:32,533 Speaker 4: are players not going to play for their country unable 130 00:07:32,613 --> 00:07:36,053 Speaker 4: to play for them because they're fulfilling franchise arrangements. 131 00:07:36,733 --> 00:07:39,653 Speaker 6: That feels like a fairly valid comparison in the German 132 00:07:39,693 --> 00:07:41,893 Speaker 6: when you mentioned about the Western Indies, because that's when 133 00:07:41,933 --> 00:07:44,733 Speaker 6: you you know, into that second tier of playing nations, 134 00:07:44,773 --> 00:07:48,773 Speaker 6: if you like, at least financially. I was quite pleased 135 00:07:48,773 --> 00:07:52,613 Speaker 6: to hear that Williamson is going to prioritize those tests matters. 136 00:07:52,613 --> 00:07:55,253 Speaker 6: I mean at least eight of the nine of Afghanistan 137 00:07:55,573 --> 00:07:58,173 Speaker 6: potentially he might play that one which we play in 138 00:07:58,213 --> 00:08:03,533 Speaker 6: India from understanding Dylant Cleaver's bouncer article, but that there's 139 00:08:03,933 --> 00:08:07,413 Speaker 6: he'd be playing eight of the nine between now in December, 140 00:08:07,493 --> 00:08:10,053 Speaker 6: so that's a decent way. So that's at least he'll 141 00:08:10,093 --> 00:08:12,693 Speaker 6: be available in that respect. I wonder what the Bold 142 00:08:12,733 --> 00:08:16,413 Speaker 6: situation where it because that was a precedent if both 143 00:08:16,453 --> 00:08:18,933 Speaker 6: parties would perhaps treat that differently. Now if it was 144 00:08:18,973 --> 00:08:21,973 Speaker 6: the case, you know, trying to establish out again. 145 00:08:22,213 --> 00:08:25,213 Speaker 4: Yeah, but availability becomes an issue, doesn't it. I mean, 146 00:08:25,893 --> 00:08:28,293 Speaker 4: are we going to have to be more flexible in 147 00:08:28,453 --> 00:08:31,333 Speaker 4: the future. We're going to get more players who are 148 00:08:31,373 --> 00:08:35,373 Speaker 4: going to do this. You know, what happens in a 149 00:08:35,453 --> 00:08:37,853 Speaker 4: couple of years with Mitchell and Conways for some damn 150 00:08:37,893 --> 00:08:40,573 Speaker 4: good runs, you know, and they wanted to look at it. 151 00:08:41,213 --> 00:08:43,893 Speaker 4: What happens to Saudi when he does he want to deal. 152 00:08:43,773 --> 00:08:47,293 Speaker 7: To you know, we're going to have to look at 153 00:08:47,333 --> 00:08:52,133 Speaker 7: our resources and sort of start thinking about forward planning 154 00:08:52,373 --> 00:08:53,933 Speaker 7: cover like investments. 155 00:08:54,013 --> 00:08:57,653 Speaker 3: You do you know you are we? 156 00:08:58,293 --> 00:09:02,053 Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly are we going to you know, be in 157 00:09:02,133 --> 00:09:05,813 Speaker 4: a situation where we recall Andrew Olderson into the New 158 00:09:05,893 --> 00:09:09,173 Speaker 4: Zealand board and say, look, Andrew older Look, we've got 159 00:09:09,253 --> 00:09:13,933 Speaker 4: a test against Australia next February March, a series against them, 160 00:09:14,013 --> 00:09:16,413 Speaker 4: three tests. We're going to play you this, pay you 161 00:09:16,533 --> 00:09:21,413 Speaker 4: this for it now. That's going to require some maturity 162 00:09:21,533 --> 00:09:25,013 Speaker 4: on all sides to do that, and the ability to 163 00:09:25,093 --> 00:09:29,813 Speaker 4: get on well with each other and playing staff. The 164 00:09:29,973 --> 00:09:32,973 Speaker 4: board selections are going to have to be made carefully 165 00:09:33,053 --> 00:09:36,133 Speaker 4: ahead of time, and then players are going to have 166 00:09:36,253 --> 00:09:39,093 Speaker 4: to rock up in a mature way with the dates 167 00:09:39,133 --> 00:09:43,693 Speaker 4: in their diary saying I am ready to bowl eighteen 168 00:09:43,733 --> 00:09:46,453 Speaker 4: to twenty overs a day. I've been training with the 169 00:09:46,573 --> 00:09:49,453 Speaker 4: red ball, I've played a longer format match and so 170 00:09:49,613 --> 00:09:52,373 Speaker 4: and so I'm ready. Those are going to be some 171 00:09:52,693 --> 00:09:56,213 Speaker 4: I think of the forward sort of thoughts about how 172 00:09:56,253 --> 00:09:57,773 Speaker 4: we're going to have to consider this. 173 00:09:58,733 --> 00:09:59,333 Speaker 3: It'll be interesting. 174 00:09:59,453 --> 00:10:02,133 Speaker 6: I think too that it'll probably not necessarily be dictated 175 00:10:02,133 --> 00:10:04,413 Speaker 6: by New Zealand Cricket, and it might be dictated by 176 00:10:05,173 --> 00:10:10,373 Speaker 6: I guess entrepreneurs and millionaires overseas running these private T 177 00:10:10,533 --> 00:10:14,373 Speaker 6: twenty leagues want being for buck and it'll be a 178 00:10:14,413 --> 00:10:17,813 Speaker 6: trickier proposition. And that's where the global calendar idea has 179 00:10:17,973 --> 00:10:21,933 Speaker 6: becomes so vital if parties can compromise, because it's only. 180 00:10:21,973 --> 00:10:24,453 Speaker 5: Going to become more and more difficult to get this employed. 181 00:10:24,493 --> 00:10:28,173 Speaker 2: I suspect how many times have we heard with global calendar, 182 00:10:28,213 --> 00:10:30,693 Speaker 2: but nobody's ever done anything about it. At the ICC, 183 00:10:31,173 --> 00:10:33,213 Speaker 2: I think they seem more interested in the money and 184 00:10:33,293 --> 00:10:35,733 Speaker 2: the franchise set up. Yeah, they can get from that. 185 00:10:36,173 --> 00:10:39,493 Speaker 2: The other thing is how many New Zealanders are going 186 00:10:39,573 --> 00:10:43,653 Speaker 2: to be part of this IPL type T twenty franchise 187 00:10:44,093 --> 00:10:46,933 Speaker 2: When we had what nine to ten in India for 188 00:10:47,013 --> 00:10:49,893 Speaker 2: the IPL. Hardly any of them played any games, so 189 00:10:49,973 --> 00:10:52,213 Speaker 2: there wouldn't have been big money going around for a 190 00:10:52,293 --> 00:10:54,533 Speaker 2: lot of people. Are many other New Zealander is going 191 00:10:54,613 --> 00:10:57,773 Speaker 2: to be involved in that kind of scenario or. 192 00:10:57,853 --> 00:11:01,173 Speaker 4: To be sorted out, isn't it Wids? Yeah, I mean, 193 00:11:02,013 --> 00:11:04,093 Speaker 4: I mean the only the last point I would make 194 00:11:04,213 --> 00:11:08,653 Speaker 4: is just a sort is that the ICC intentions were 195 00:11:08,733 --> 00:11:11,813 Speaker 4: good to go to America. I mean they want to 196 00:11:11,853 --> 00:11:15,893 Speaker 4: take it to a new outpost, create a new revenue stream. 197 00:11:17,373 --> 00:11:22,093 Speaker 4: And I say that because if it works out, you 198 00:11:22,253 --> 00:11:27,293 Speaker 4: reduce the continual impact and being prone to being held 199 00:11:27,413 --> 00:11:32,013 Speaker 4: to ransom by the big threes. It's you know, that's 200 00:11:32,173 --> 00:11:36,013 Speaker 4: they're always having to bow and scrape to those Big 201 00:11:36,173 --> 00:11:40,253 Speaker 4: three about tournaments where they're held and all sorts of things, 202 00:11:40,773 --> 00:11:44,933 Speaker 4: division of moneies. But as they got something else as well, 203 00:11:45,053 --> 00:11:48,493 Speaker 4: suddenly they got a bit more in, you know, to 204 00:11:48,733 --> 00:11:51,533 Speaker 4: argue backwards. If that works out that way. 205 00:11:52,933 --> 00:11:55,133 Speaker 2: Yeah, interesting stuff and stuff we're probably going to have 206 00:11:55,213 --> 00:11:58,133 Speaker 2: to discuss over a period of time because things are 207 00:11:58,333 --> 00:12:03,373 Speaker 2: moving at not great pace. But the changes, particularly with 208 00:12:03,453 --> 00:12:08,813 Speaker 2: the New Zealand game, the super rights, well all is 209 00:12:08,933 --> 00:12:11,773 Speaker 2: you don't have to worry about explaining this one because 210 00:12:12,413 --> 00:12:16,773 Speaker 2: you weren't invited to give your final four the semi finalists. 211 00:12:17,333 --> 00:12:22,013 Speaker 2: Two of mine have missed out, you see, Australia. So 212 00:12:22,253 --> 00:12:24,813 Speaker 2: I'm looking a little bit sheepish at the four that 213 00:12:24,933 --> 00:12:26,613 Speaker 2: were there. Do you want to let us know what 214 00:12:26,813 --> 00:12:29,253 Speaker 2: you thought was going to be the final four? 215 00:12:32,213 --> 00:12:34,213 Speaker 4: You'll just say the ones that are there. 216 00:12:36,493 --> 00:12:43,413 Speaker 6: Hindsight, Brian, look, I must have been I'm surprised that 217 00:12:43,493 --> 00:12:46,333 Speaker 6: Australia aren't there. I think I've got ust have done 218 00:12:46,933 --> 00:12:50,253 Speaker 6: incredibly well, especially I suppose with the assistance of gooblde 219 00:12:50,453 --> 00:12:53,453 Speaker 6: names Hamstring pulling up at a crucial stage there in 220 00:12:53,573 --> 00:12:56,653 Speaker 6: the in the Manach against Bungledesh which kept going to 221 00:12:56,693 --> 00:13:00,253 Speaker 6: start it in front and Jonathan Trotz Evans to slow 222 00:13:00,293 --> 00:13:01,373 Speaker 6: the game down, et cetera. 223 00:13:01,773 --> 00:13:04,133 Speaker 5: But they have done superbly well all the same to 224 00:13:04,253 --> 00:13:05,333 Speaker 5: even get to that point. 225 00:13:06,413 --> 00:13:09,453 Speaker 6: And yeah, what's what's supposed to Phiziland's good for Australia 226 00:13:09,453 --> 00:13:13,933 Speaker 6: in a regard getting booted by Afghanistan and I mean India, England. 227 00:13:14,173 --> 00:13:16,493 Speaker 6: I think I'm quite surprised even to see in just 228 00:13:16,533 --> 00:13:18,853 Speaker 6: over the course of the tournament, doesn't surprise of it. Beforehand, 229 00:13:19,533 --> 00:13:22,093 Speaker 6: South Africa seemed to have a good balance there and 230 00:13:22,333 --> 00:13:26,253 Speaker 6: have really made the most of their squad and their 231 00:13:26,293 --> 00:13:29,133 Speaker 6: abilities and you know, maybe it is their time and 232 00:13:29,213 --> 00:13:31,333 Speaker 6: what they last won a tournament of the ninety ninety 233 00:13:31,333 --> 00:13:33,933 Speaker 6: eight Champions Trophy, I think back in the day it 234 00:13:34,053 --> 00:13:37,773 Speaker 6: was the first edition. But they've of course struggled in 235 00:13:37,933 --> 00:13:41,213 Speaker 6: the time in between because of the mean, so many 236 00:13:41,293 --> 00:13:43,413 Speaker 6: scenarios where they got close in white ball cricket but 237 00:13:43,533 --> 00:13:47,013 Speaker 6: haven't been able to push on. So yeah, fastinating scenario. 238 00:13:47,053 --> 00:13:50,373 Speaker 6: Then whatsin Africa and Afghanistan and India against England which 239 00:13:50,373 --> 00:13:53,853 Speaker 6: should be a box office material too, So yet it's 240 00:13:53,933 --> 00:13:55,413 Speaker 6: going to be a couple of fascinating prospects. 241 00:13:55,813 --> 00:13:56,013 Speaker 3: Yeah. 242 00:13:56,093 --> 00:13:59,413 Speaker 2: Well, there's been to entertaining games in the most recent 243 00:13:59,653 --> 00:14:02,773 Speaker 2: round and I've got to say I actually did watch 244 00:14:02,893 --> 00:14:06,773 Speaker 2: the Bangladesh Afghanistan game and also the South Africa West 245 00:14:06,813 --> 00:14:10,813 Speaker 2: Indies game had exciting finish to it. Western is was 246 00:14:10,853 --> 00:14:12,533 Speaker 2: one on the sides I picked to actually make the 247 00:14:12,613 --> 00:14:17,333 Speaker 2: four Jeremy along with news Helen. But do you remember 248 00:14:17,373 --> 00:14:18,573 Speaker 2: that did you pick them as well? 249 00:14:20,013 --> 00:14:22,853 Speaker 4: I didn't pick the West and he's no, but I 250 00:14:22,893 --> 00:14:27,853 Speaker 4: did pick Australia and that was a bit of a surprise. 251 00:14:27,933 --> 00:14:31,773 Speaker 4: But they lost to Afghanistan. Well done, Afghanistan, that was 252 00:14:31,813 --> 00:14:35,773 Speaker 4: a fantastic game. I watched the South Africa West Indies 253 00:14:35,853 --> 00:14:41,053 Speaker 4: match two wards, a very tight match and South Africa 254 00:14:41,093 --> 00:14:43,973 Speaker 4: have now won seven out of seven close games, haven't they. 255 00:14:44,933 --> 00:14:46,893 Speaker 4: And I guess that gives them a bit of bit 256 00:14:47,013 --> 00:14:49,453 Speaker 4: of confidence and belief that someone will get it done. 257 00:14:50,093 --> 00:14:54,053 Speaker 4: They keep finding ways to win, but they haven't really 258 00:14:54,133 --> 00:14:58,013 Speaker 4: finished matches clinically, that's the downside of that. I guess 259 00:14:59,653 --> 00:15:02,013 Speaker 4: they've got Dakop getting a few runs, but they've got 260 00:15:02,493 --> 00:15:04,733 Speaker 4: cameos coming from the others. It'd be nice if one 261 00:15:04,773 --> 00:15:07,373 Speaker 4: of them went on. I would have thought. Keep losing 262 00:15:07,413 --> 00:15:12,573 Speaker 4: wickets so that keeps the opposition and interested. I think 263 00:15:13,133 --> 00:15:16,453 Speaker 4: a couple of things have got them through spin Maharaj 264 00:15:16,533 --> 00:15:21,093 Speaker 4: and Shamsi and also Markroom bowling himself. I thought that 265 00:15:21,253 --> 00:15:25,733 Speaker 4: was they bowled twelve overs of spin against the West 266 00:15:25,773 --> 00:15:29,533 Speaker 4: Indies who struggled against the spin, didn't they And they 267 00:15:29,653 --> 00:15:32,493 Speaker 4: got lots of dot balls they can't maneuver around. And 268 00:15:33,493 --> 00:15:36,573 Speaker 4: Markram's captaincy I think has been a very important part 269 00:15:36,653 --> 00:15:36,973 Speaker 4: of all that. 270 00:15:37,893 --> 00:15:40,453 Speaker 2: Yeah, Afghanistan have proven that you don't have to have 271 00:15:41,333 --> 00:15:43,733 Speaker 2: a ribbon bust approach to opening your innas what have 272 00:15:43,773 --> 00:15:46,013 Speaker 2: they got three century partnerships at the top of the 273 00:15:46,173 --> 00:15:49,293 Speaker 2: order and it's been good quality betting. Probably run a 274 00:15:49,333 --> 00:15:53,333 Speaker 2: ball there. It's not been heavy hitting by the top 275 00:15:53,413 --> 00:15:57,133 Speaker 2: order players and that's been a proof of that. How 276 00:15:57,173 --> 00:16:00,573 Speaker 2: do you see the semifinals now? Orders will put you 277 00:16:00,613 --> 00:16:06,933 Speaker 2: on the spot with this one. The two semi finals Afghanistan? 278 00:16:06,973 --> 00:16:09,453 Speaker 2: Are they no longer a surprise package? Can they beat you? 279 00:16:09,453 --> 00:16:10,493 Speaker 2: Ell ever again? Oh? 280 00:16:10,573 --> 00:16:12,653 Speaker 6: Look, they can, but I'll be picking South Africa on 281 00:16:12,733 --> 00:16:15,733 Speaker 6: that one, just for the reasons Jeremy's mentioned there with 282 00:16:15,813 --> 00:16:18,733 Speaker 6: the spin options. I mean also they're past bowling too. 283 00:16:19,093 --> 00:16:21,973 Speaker 6: I like the look of that in the fact that 284 00:16:22,013 --> 00:16:24,973 Speaker 6: they've had that real tough run through and been able 285 00:16:25,013 --> 00:16:30,173 Speaker 6: to triumph in those games close contests. But Afghanistan, I 286 00:16:30,253 --> 00:16:32,653 Speaker 6: suppose you could still consider them a surprise package. I 287 00:16:32,733 --> 00:16:34,493 Speaker 6: mentioned there's been a fit bit more scouting done on 288 00:16:34,573 --> 00:16:38,173 Speaker 6: them since they're opening New Zealand will win that they 289 00:16:38,253 --> 00:16:41,533 Speaker 6: were able to succeed with. I've been really impressed with 290 00:16:41,613 --> 00:16:45,093 Speaker 6: Ferruki the left arm with the ball and changes the pace, 291 00:16:45,173 --> 00:16:48,093 Speaker 6: but also just his his venom that he's able to 292 00:16:48,173 --> 00:16:51,773 Speaker 6: display there over the wicket took him to the right hand, 293 00:16:51,813 --> 00:16:55,573 Speaker 6: as I've thought, you know, Rashid Khan coming of age. 294 00:16:55,373 --> 00:16:59,373 Speaker 5: And really proving his pedigree as well in leading. 295 00:16:59,173 --> 00:17:01,973 Speaker 6: That side, and you know with his four wicketsl a 296 00:17:02,093 --> 00:17:04,453 Speaker 6: day and the crucial match against bung A Dish and 297 00:17:04,573 --> 00:17:06,813 Speaker 6: just when we talk about South Africa having close wins, 298 00:17:07,293 --> 00:17:09,213 Speaker 6: I've got to stay able to hold on. Most recently 299 00:17:09,253 --> 00:17:12,573 Speaker 6: again Spugledies suggests that they've got the pedigree, they've got 300 00:17:12,613 --> 00:17:16,173 Speaker 6: the medal to be able to withstand that pressure as well. 301 00:17:16,333 --> 00:17:19,613 Speaker 6: So I'm looking forward to that as a contest for sure. 302 00:17:20,373 --> 00:17:24,133 Speaker 6: What about the other seaming orders, I just have to 303 00:17:24,173 --> 00:17:25,933 Speaker 6: look at India. I think just that they seem like 304 00:17:26,013 --> 00:17:28,613 Speaker 6: such a jugg andau it's so balanced across the park. 305 00:17:28,653 --> 00:17:32,533 Speaker 6: I mean just seeing what Rowisham was able to dispatch 306 00:17:32,533 --> 00:17:35,133 Speaker 6: it a day with his ninety two off forty one. 307 00:17:35,973 --> 00:17:39,333 Speaker 5: But I think they're just in such good forms, such 308 00:17:39,333 --> 00:17:40,173 Speaker 5: a good rhythm from. 309 00:17:40,053 --> 00:17:44,333 Speaker 6: The IPL going straight into this as opposed to England 310 00:17:44,373 --> 00:17:46,573 Speaker 6: who have had a bit of a stop start to 311 00:17:46,813 --> 00:17:51,333 Speaker 6: They had me help by weather on occasion. But I 312 00:17:51,533 --> 00:17:53,973 Speaker 6: just feel like the pressure may get to them and 313 00:17:54,293 --> 00:17:57,693 Speaker 6: I think that India certainly you know the strong round 314 00:17:57,853 --> 00:17:59,693 Speaker 6: all bit that they're now moving down into the western 315 00:17:59,733 --> 00:18:02,293 Speaker 6: HEAs having played that initial part of the tournament in America, 316 00:18:02,373 --> 00:18:05,333 Speaker 6: particularly in New York on the sluggish wickets that we 317 00:18:05,453 --> 00:18:08,493 Speaker 6: saw there. But I'd still back India and that so 318 00:18:09,293 --> 00:18:12,013 Speaker 6: I guess one on one situation, so effectively for me, 319 00:18:12,373 --> 00:18:13,973 Speaker 6: it'll be an into South Africa final. 320 00:18:15,253 --> 00:18:17,893 Speaker 2: Yep, that's fair enough. What do you reckon, Jerry? Pretty 321 00:18:17,973 --> 00:18:21,133 Speaker 2: much the same? I think I follow that line of reasoning. 322 00:18:22,253 --> 00:18:26,333 Speaker 4: Yeah, the second semi India England at Providence, when New 323 00:18:26,373 --> 00:18:31,853 Speaker 4: Zealand of course played first, that's the one that there's 324 00:18:32,293 --> 00:18:37,373 Speaker 4: no it's a day game there, so it usually holds 325 00:18:37,493 --> 00:18:40,533 Speaker 4: up a little bit more. And I think that England 326 00:18:40,573 --> 00:18:45,533 Speaker 4: will come into trouble with the spinners, particularly India have 327 00:18:45,773 --> 00:18:52,493 Speaker 4: at Providence of Aksha cool Deeper's bowling beautifully Jadasia and 328 00:18:52,613 --> 00:18:55,813 Speaker 4: then of course there's seams born around Arshdeep Arshtep's getting 329 00:18:55,813 --> 00:18:57,773 Speaker 4: a few wickets, isn't he. But I think a lot 330 00:18:57,853 --> 00:19:00,813 Speaker 4: on the English and middle order. I think the left 331 00:19:00,933 --> 00:19:03,933 Speaker 4: arm spinners the best I will will concern him a bit, 332 00:19:05,613 --> 00:19:09,293 Speaker 4: will handle any left arm wrist spin will handle left 333 00:19:09,333 --> 00:19:13,373 Speaker 4: and right hand They can change the deliveries. Livingstone important 334 00:19:13,413 --> 00:19:16,613 Speaker 4: as well, so India should have too much for England. 335 00:19:17,013 --> 00:19:22,333 Speaker 4: I think first one much more, much tighter again at 336 00:19:22,373 --> 00:19:25,813 Speaker 4: an area. New Zealand plan a night game, a game 337 00:19:25,933 --> 00:19:28,293 Speaker 4: where they get one hundred and ninety minutes at the 338 00:19:28,413 --> 00:19:31,453 Speaker 4: end and that's about it. You know, they get the 339 00:19:31,533 --> 00:19:33,693 Speaker 4: extra day. Sorry, they get the extra day the next 340 00:19:33,773 --> 00:19:40,173 Speaker 4: day because they're playing earlier. So Taruba. Look, I think 341 00:19:40,293 --> 00:19:44,133 Speaker 4: Afghanistan have got a chance there. I think Naven hasn't 342 00:19:44,173 --> 00:19:47,053 Speaker 4: been mentioned yet, but he got four wickets the other 343 00:19:47,213 --> 00:19:50,773 Speaker 4: night and he's very useful to left handers because he 344 00:19:50,853 --> 00:19:53,133 Speaker 4: can come around the wicket and get swing. Look how 345 00:19:53,173 --> 00:19:55,133 Speaker 4: he bold head the other night. I don't know whether 346 00:19:55,173 --> 00:19:59,533 Speaker 4: you saw that. I think he's better than you. They've 347 00:19:59,533 --> 00:20:01,693 Speaker 4: got a terrific slower ball that got a wicket the 348 00:20:01,773 --> 00:20:06,333 Speaker 4: other night as well against Bangladesh. So I think that 349 00:20:06,453 --> 00:20:07,653 Speaker 4: could be a tighter game. 350 00:20:08,453 --> 00:20:08,653 Speaker 2: Less. 351 00:20:08,693 --> 00:20:12,093 Speaker 4: South Africa play with a more clinical kind of way 352 00:20:12,173 --> 00:20:13,253 Speaker 4: than they have so far. 353 00:20:14,573 --> 00:20:18,253 Speaker 2: Just a finishing point on the woralty twenty. The Associate 354 00:20:18,373 --> 00:20:21,413 Speaker 2: Nations being there, has it add anything to it? Has 355 00:20:21,453 --> 00:20:23,413 Speaker 2: it done what cricket wanted to do? Do you think 356 00:20:24,053 --> 00:20:26,253 Speaker 2: all as you had some reservations. I remember hearing you 357 00:20:26,733 --> 00:20:29,773 Speaker 2: say about the tourment being in America and you changed 358 00:20:29,853 --> 00:20:31,733 Speaker 2: your mind a little bit, didn't you on that. 359 00:20:33,293 --> 00:20:37,133 Speaker 6: Yeah, I still have some reservations, but then I mean, 360 00:20:37,333 --> 00:20:39,773 Speaker 6: who doesn't love a feel good story like the United 361 00:20:39,813 --> 00:20:42,173 Speaker 6: States going through to that super right stage. 362 00:20:42,173 --> 00:20:44,893 Speaker 5: I mean, that was that was a terrific performance. 363 00:20:45,213 --> 00:20:47,493 Speaker 6: I mean there are some some of the weaker sizes, 364 00:20:47,573 --> 00:20:50,293 Speaker 6: but you've just got to accept that with the the 365 00:20:51,493 --> 00:20:53,853 Speaker 6: the way it's going in the end, ICC wants to 366 00:20:53,933 --> 00:20:57,333 Speaker 6: open it up two more teams and to get them involved, 367 00:20:57,773 --> 00:21:01,493 Speaker 6: and I think that, yes, it does. I still do 368 00:21:01,613 --> 00:21:04,653 Speaker 6: have reservations, but I think that, yeah, there have been 369 00:21:04,733 --> 00:21:06,573 Speaker 6: some positive points from that to be able to take 370 00:21:06,653 --> 00:21:09,933 Speaker 6: out of it. And yeah, Cricket's looking to grow the game, 371 00:21:09,973 --> 00:21:14,493 Speaker 6: which is clearly the mission and the directive that they 372 00:21:14,533 --> 00:21:17,533 Speaker 6: want to work with at the ICC. Well, I think 373 00:21:17,573 --> 00:21:20,173 Speaker 6: that's something that they'll pursue over a period of time 374 00:21:20,293 --> 00:21:20,613 Speaker 6: for sure. 375 00:21:22,053 --> 00:21:25,933 Speaker 2: Well, all his views on the associates, there are a 376 00:21:26,013 --> 00:21:29,053 Speaker 2: number of their pnng You, Ganda had a win, Nepal, 377 00:21:29,733 --> 00:21:33,573 Speaker 2: Netherlands had to win, Namibia, Amman, Canada had a win 378 00:21:33,613 --> 00:21:38,093 Speaker 2: in Scotland had a win. They extended the tournament, but 379 00:21:39,053 --> 00:21:43,013 Speaker 2: did they add much in terms of the competition and 380 00:21:43,493 --> 00:21:44,613 Speaker 2: having it in America? 381 00:21:45,653 --> 00:21:46,093 Speaker 3: How did that. 382 00:21:47,973 --> 00:21:51,453 Speaker 2: Contribute to the contests all around? 383 00:21:52,013 --> 00:21:53,693 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, you know my feelings a little bit on 384 00:21:53,813 --> 00:21:58,533 Speaker 4: this on I'm right behind the ICC and expanding the 385 00:21:58,653 --> 00:22:05,973 Speaker 4: tournament as far as that the associates go on their 386 00:22:06,053 --> 00:22:09,413 Speaker 4: performances and it will always going to be one side. 387 00:22:09,493 --> 00:22:14,893 Speaker 4: It's slightly lopsided results, but you know, you start you 388 00:22:15,013 --> 00:22:17,093 Speaker 4: start to look at those some of those things that 389 00:22:17,213 --> 00:22:22,813 Speaker 4: you mentioned. You know, Namibia nearly beating Scotland, Scotland, you know, 390 00:22:23,293 --> 00:22:28,533 Speaker 4: nearly beating Australia's There's all those kinds of Netherlands nearly 391 00:22:28,693 --> 00:22:33,013 Speaker 4: down in South Africa, Canada beating Ireland, Nepal just one 392 00:22:33,173 --> 00:22:36,333 Speaker 4: run away from beating South Africa and tying with them, 393 00:22:36,933 --> 00:22:40,453 Speaker 4: Nepal three runs shorts, and you know against that, they 394 00:22:40,573 --> 00:22:44,773 Speaker 4: go on and on. So so yes, mismatches and over 395 00:22:44,933 --> 00:22:50,973 Speaker 4: quickly USA getting through. But I think, for about the 396 00:22:51,093 --> 00:22:54,933 Speaker 4: first time in a while now, this felt to me 397 00:22:55,853 --> 00:22:59,813 Speaker 4: like a World's Cup, you know this, this felt as 398 00:22:59,853 --> 00:23:03,253 Speaker 4: if we were getting a much bigger range of teams. 399 00:23:03,853 --> 00:23:08,053 Speaker 4: And with that, I've talked about the results from them. 400 00:23:08,093 --> 00:23:11,733 Speaker 4: But at the same time, you know, the icc of 401 00:23:11,853 --> 00:23:15,533 Speaker 4: supplied money to of the associates, maybe not enough, and 402 00:23:15,653 --> 00:23:17,893 Speaker 4: that there'll be some people that feel it was a 403 00:23:17,973 --> 00:23:19,813 Speaker 4: bit of a token to them to get a twenty 404 00:23:19,933 --> 00:23:26,493 Speaker 4: team tournament. But the conditions, unwittingly in a way, suddenly 405 00:23:26,613 --> 00:23:29,773 Speaker 4: became a bit of a leveler between the top sides 406 00:23:30,173 --> 00:23:33,653 Speaker 4: and the associates. You don't need to be the best 407 00:23:33,693 --> 00:23:40,253 Speaker 4: bowler to get wickets in those situations. So I felt, yes, 408 00:23:40,493 --> 00:23:44,493 Speaker 4: it wasn't and also that was that slipped into into 409 00:23:44,573 --> 00:23:47,333 Speaker 4: the crowds, didn't it. That was suddenly there was a 410 00:23:47,413 --> 00:23:52,133 Speaker 4: different atmosphere in the crowds. It was those crowds. Think 411 00:23:52,173 --> 00:23:54,613 Speaker 4: of some of the crowds that we've seen and the 412 00:23:54,733 --> 00:23:57,853 Speaker 4: support that they've received from their country. So I thought 413 00:23:57,893 --> 00:23:59,813 Speaker 4: that was a new kind of then, and it's an 414 00:23:59,893 --> 00:24:04,453 Speaker 4: expansion of the sport as well. Going into America, I 415 00:24:04,533 --> 00:24:07,813 Speaker 4: thought the timing was very difficult. You know that ten 416 00:24:07,973 --> 00:24:12,013 Speaker 4: thirty am fun of time they have over there in America, 417 00:24:13,253 --> 00:24:15,733 Speaker 4: and it was a timing that pampered India of course, 418 00:24:16,613 --> 00:24:20,253 Speaker 4: and the reason for that is that you've got to 419 00:24:20,373 --> 00:24:24,173 Speaker 4: give money an opportunity to your broadcasters who pay such 420 00:24:24,213 --> 00:24:28,053 Speaker 4: a lot, you know, to broadcast the sport, and so 421 00:24:28,213 --> 00:24:32,173 Speaker 4: they have to take, you know, cognizance of the India, 422 00:24:32,213 --> 00:24:36,533 Speaker 4: Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Bangladesh, the Asian kind of group to 423 00:24:36,653 --> 00:24:40,133 Speaker 4: supply money to broadcasters to pay for those large rights. 424 00:24:40,893 --> 00:24:45,653 Speaker 4: So the ICC were a bit limited there. I thought 425 00:24:45,853 --> 00:24:55,333 Speaker 4: that operationally mistakes were made going to America, not establishing 426 00:24:55,453 --> 00:25:00,613 Speaker 4: the conditions I mentioned the time zones. They tried to 427 00:25:00,693 --> 00:25:03,773 Speaker 4: do it right, and it looked okay on the telly, 428 00:25:03,853 --> 00:25:06,733 Speaker 4: didn't it. But if you were if you were, say, 429 00:25:06,893 --> 00:25:09,493 Speaker 4: going to the New York match odds, and you had 430 00:25:09,533 --> 00:25:14,253 Speaker 4: to go to Long Island, the nearest train station was 431 00:25:14,333 --> 00:25:19,013 Speaker 4: five to six miles away from the park. Now the 432 00:25:19,093 --> 00:25:23,253 Speaker 4: people still went. Two of them sold out and there 433 00:25:23,253 --> 00:25:27,493 Speaker 4: were reasonable numbers at the others, but you know, police 434 00:25:27,573 --> 00:25:30,573 Speaker 4: were pretty officious. From there on. It was hard to 435 00:25:30,653 --> 00:25:32,933 Speaker 4: get car parks and all those kinds of things, so 436 00:25:33,613 --> 00:25:36,933 Speaker 4: it was quite expensive to some of the games. So 437 00:25:37,213 --> 00:25:41,613 Speaker 4: look and then of course there were the pictures. There 438 00:25:41,693 --> 00:25:45,733 Speaker 4: was rain down in Florida at Fort Lauderdale, so three 439 00:25:45,813 --> 00:25:49,453 Speaker 4: days were lost there. So it ends up being a 440 00:25:49,493 --> 00:25:53,573 Speaker 4: bit of a kick start, you know. It was an 441 00:25:53,573 --> 00:25:57,893 Speaker 4: effort to try and to go there. The Americans will 442 00:25:57,933 --> 00:26:01,053 Speaker 4: be more aware of cricket because of it, because the 443 00:26:01,253 --> 00:26:04,933 Speaker 4: USA got through. I think that will help a great deal. 444 00:26:06,813 --> 00:26:09,573 Speaker 4: And so I don't, I don't. I'm not going to 445 00:26:09,613 --> 00:26:12,133 Speaker 4: be too harsh on the ICC for that. I think 446 00:26:12,213 --> 00:26:15,173 Speaker 4: that it's actually been a much bit of tournament for 447 00:26:15,293 --> 00:26:16,453 Speaker 4: me to watch. 448 00:26:17,573 --> 00:26:19,573 Speaker 2: Yeah, they have to make those endeavors and they have 449 00:26:19,653 --> 00:26:21,853 Speaker 2: to take those opportunities. I'm not sure that it had 450 00:26:21,933 --> 00:26:25,613 Speaker 2: quite the impact on the Americans as they would have 451 00:26:25,693 --> 00:26:27,413 Speaker 2: been hoping. I've got a son who lives in America 452 00:26:27,853 --> 00:26:30,333 Speaker 2: and he said trying to get the television coverage and 453 00:26:30,453 --> 00:26:35,253 Speaker 2: buying the coverage was very difficult. Just finding out where 454 00:26:35,293 --> 00:26:40,093 Speaker 2: it was available made it tough. That the American television system, 455 00:26:40,733 --> 00:26:43,253 Speaker 2: unless you've got access to that sort of stuff, it 456 00:26:43,493 --> 00:26:50,173 Speaker 2: is quite difficult for Americans to do. But well, it's 457 00:26:50,413 --> 00:26:55,373 Speaker 2: obviously been a reasonably successful event and we'll just have 458 00:26:55,493 --> 00:26:58,013 Speaker 2: to wait and see what comes out of the final 459 00:26:58,213 --> 00:27:03,213 Speaker 2: and what comes in the wash up, because it is 460 00:27:03,893 --> 00:27:05,693 Speaker 2: likely to happen again. 461 00:27:06,133 --> 00:27:09,853 Speaker 3: Brian Waddle, Jeremy Coney on the front foot. 462 00:27:11,013 --> 00:27:13,213 Speaker 2: So the World t twitty coming to an end, and 463 00:27:13,933 --> 00:27:16,333 Speaker 2: we've been through the semi finals. A little bit earlier, 464 00:27:16,613 --> 00:27:21,413 Speaker 2: just before we go orders, who went, oh. 465 00:27:21,653 --> 00:27:24,333 Speaker 6: I'm going to take do you know what I'm gonna 466 00:27:24,333 --> 00:27:26,333 Speaker 6: go out, and I'm going to say South Africa. I 467 00:27:26,493 --> 00:27:29,413 Speaker 6: just think that maybe it's their time. I mean, I 468 00:27:29,773 --> 00:27:32,973 Speaker 6: think we're hard to peer back India given that. Yeah, 469 00:27:33,013 --> 00:27:35,493 Speaker 6: they've all come to ther ipl they're Metxford, They're they're 470 00:27:35,573 --> 00:27:39,453 Speaker 6: raring to go. But I just like the look of 471 00:27:39,653 --> 00:27:43,373 Speaker 6: South Africa being together there and just having put together 472 00:27:43,453 --> 00:27:46,533 Speaker 6: so much consistency I suppose over the course of the tournament. 473 00:27:47,453 --> 00:27:50,173 Speaker 6: So yeah, maybe it's it's the heart versus the head 474 00:27:50,253 --> 00:27:53,453 Speaker 6: type argument, but yeah, I just give me. 475 00:27:53,933 --> 00:27:54,253 Speaker 5: There you go. 476 00:27:54,573 --> 00:27:57,933 Speaker 2: Two chokers there, Jerry, two chokers India and South over again. 477 00:28:00,333 --> 00:28:05,373 Speaker 4: Look, heart would love love South Africa. Kids, is India. 478 00:28:05,653 --> 00:28:11,093 Speaker 4: I'm afraid nightgame at Bridgetown a pitch. Yeah, I think 479 00:28:11,173 --> 00:28:14,493 Speaker 4: I think India. But boy been lovely. If South Africa 480 00:28:14,573 --> 00:28:17,733 Speaker 4: could do it, I don't care. 481 00:28:21,293 --> 00:28:23,933 Speaker 2: They're looking after their brains and forgetting about the heart tools. 482 00:28:23,973 --> 00:28:27,493 Speaker 2: We'll done, guys.
