Speaker 1: Used TALKSB. It's twenty two past three and we.

4
00:00:21,093 --> 00:00:24,893
Speaker 2: Welcome to the Mat and Tyler Afternoons on zb ACC

5
00:00:25,052 --> 00:00:29,453
Speaker 2: head Mania Stewart Mate, we'll discuss the cricket motion.

6
00:00:29,412 --> 00:00:33,693
Speaker 3: And thank you very much for the promotion to I'll

7
00:00:33,693 --> 00:00:35,333
Speaker 3: be approving my own pay rise after this.

8
00:00:35,493 --> 00:00:39,013
Speaker 2: We're in a difficult position now because Cain Williamson is

9
00:00:39,053 --> 00:00:42,213
Speaker 2: on ninety four and that's a difficult time to discuss

10
00:00:42,293 --> 00:00:44,973
Speaker 2: cricket because you don't want to compliment the man. You

11
00:00:45,013 --> 00:00:48,653
Speaker 2: don't really want to mention anything about it because we'll

12
00:00:48,653 --> 00:00:50,252
Speaker 2: be blamed he doesn't make it.

13
00:00:50,533 --> 00:00:52,253
Speaker 3: And this is something that the a SEC has faced

14
00:00:52,293 --> 00:00:55,213
Speaker 3: a lot of criticism over the years about, is the

15
00:00:55,733 --> 00:00:59,333
Speaker 3: level and frequency with which we dish out commentators curses.

16
00:00:59,373 --> 00:01:00,533
Speaker 1: So it is.

17
00:01:00,573 --> 00:01:02,853
Speaker 3: It's funny. Once you get into the situation, the commentary

18
00:01:02,853 --> 00:01:05,213
Speaker 3: becomes quite difficult because you don't want to say anything

19
00:01:05,573 --> 00:01:08,292
Speaker 3: lest he's dismissed in the next ball and it's your fault.

20
00:01:08,373 --> 00:01:11,053
Speaker 2: It's difficult to commentate a cricket fix you without ever

21
00:01:11,133 --> 00:01:14,773
Speaker 2: complementing your team so man and I we're leading by

22
00:01:14,853 --> 00:01:17,853
Speaker 2: four hundred and twenty four runs. How far do you

23
00:01:17,893 --> 00:01:18,653
Speaker 2: think we'll push that?

24
00:01:18,973 --> 00:01:21,533
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean obviously five hundred's the first thing that

25
00:01:21,572 --> 00:01:23,613
Speaker 3: comes into your mind. But you're gonna remember this is

26
00:01:23,693 --> 00:01:26,212
Speaker 3: day three and they're going to play till about seven

27
00:01:26,212 --> 00:01:30,133
Speaker 3: o'clock tonight because of the rain delay. And this English team,

28
00:01:30,173 --> 00:01:31,613
Speaker 3: I mean, if ever there was a team that could

29
00:01:31,652 --> 00:01:34,932
Speaker 3: chase down five hundred, it's probably this team. So I

30
00:01:35,053 --> 00:01:37,493
Speaker 3: wonder if these boys are going to try and bat

31
00:01:37,533 --> 00:01:40,293
Speaker 3: for time as opposed to a particular score. I mean,

32
00:01:40,333 --> 00:01:42,453
Speaker 3: you look, we're two twenty for three in this inning,

33
00:01:42,493 --> 00:01:44,493
Speaker 3: so we've got plenty in the hutch. And that two

34
00:01:44,533 --> 00:01:47,133
Speaker 3: twenty for three you're gonna remember is Willow Rourke, who

35
00:01:47,212 --> 00:01:50,013
Speaker 3: was a night watchman, so it's really two twenty for two.

36
00:01:50,973 --> 00:01:53,053
Speaker 3: So I think they're going to try and stay out

37
00:01:53,053 --> 00:01:55,252
Speaker 3: there for as long as possible. And there's, of course

38
00:01:55,413 --> 00:01:59,413
Speaker 3: the interesting case of being Tim Soudy's last game. Yeah,

39
00:01:59,573 --> 00:02:02,613
Speaker 3: currently sitting on ninety eight sixes. Yes, so if we

40
00:02:03,333 --> 00:02:06,773
Speaker 3: declare and don't allow Tim Southey in his last game

41
00:02:06,813 --> 00:02:10,053
Speaker 3: to try and hit two sixes, which sounds crazy and

42
00:02:10,173 --> 00:02:14,133
Speaker 3: juvenile and outside of the spirit of Test cricket. But

43
00:02:14,133 --> 00:02:16,173
Speaker 3: if we don't allow that, I'll be furious. No, well,

44
00:02:16,173 --> 00:02:18,972
Speaker 3: it's own patriotic, isn't it. I mean he is one

45
00:02:18,972 --> 00:02:21,573
Speaker 3: of the record as we see another six there Williamson,

46
00:02:21,573 --> 00:02:23,573
Speaker 3: and he's brought up the ton is that the times

47
00:02:23,613 --> 00:02:26,453
Speaker 3: the time I've done it with a sex and that's

48
00:02:26,493 --> 00:02:27,973
Speaker 3: really led us off the hook. We can now talk

49
00:02:28,013 --> 00:02:29,933
Speaker 3: about it partnership.

50
00:02:30,093 --> 00:02:35,453
Speaker 2: That's century thirty three for Cain Williamson, I believe, And

51
00:02:36,173 --> 00:02:38,773
Speaker 2: just how much do we love that man? You can't

52
00:02:38,773 --> 00:02:42,293
Speaker 2: love him anymore? Every innings he gives us something to

53
00:02:42,333 --> 00:02:46,253
Speaker 2: love more and a very subdued, classically subdued celebration. How

54
00:02:46,333 --> 00:02:48,293
Speaker 2: much straight back on, let's get back into it. But

55
00:02:48,293 --> 00:02:51,253
Speaker 2: you're right, Tim Souvey. I think if we see Tim

56
00:02:51,293 --> 00:02:53,093
Speaker 2: Souvey come out in the next couple of work, it's

57
00:02:53,133 --> 00:02:56,053
Speaker 2: that sort of an indication that we're about to But

58
00:02:56,173 --> 00:02:58,412
Speaker 2: he because like you said, he's on ninety eight career

59
00:02:58,573 --> 00:03:01,893
Speaker 2: Test sixes. If he goes to one hundred, he will.

60
00:03:01,733 --> 00:03:05,732
Speaker 3: Then be third all time behind Ben Stokes and Be's

61
00:03:05,813 --> 00:03:10,773
Speaker 3: McCallum both in the ground. Yeah, but also he isn't

62
00:03:10,813 --> 00:03:14,693
Speaker 3: a batsman, so his percentage of sixes to balls faced

63
00:03:14,853 --> 00:03:17,933
Speaker 3: is astronomical compared to everyone else. Well, it's ridiculous. It's

64
00:03:17,972 --> 00:03:19,573
Speaker 3: when you're grown up as a kid, all you want

65
00:03:19,613 --> 00:03:22,053
Speaker 3: to do is bowl fast and hit sixes, and that's

66
00:03:22,053 --> 00:03:23,813
Speaker 3: exactly what he's done in his career.

67
00:03:24,453 --> 00:03:26,893
Speaker 2: But as in New Zealander, sometimes we've wished that he

68
00:03:26,933 --> 00:03:28,973
Speaker 2: hadn't gone out and just tried to smash sixes and

69
00:03:28,972 --> 00:03:31,653
Speaker 2: maybe stuck around at the crease a little bit longer.

70
00:03:31,693 --> 00:03:34,453
Speaker 2: I think he averages about seventeen balls and innings.

71
00:03:34,093 --> 00:03:36,373
Speaker 3: Something like that, but I think that's a hangover from

72
00:03:36,373 --> 00:03:38,853
Speaker 3: the bas era as well, because Bears just told the

73
00:03:38,853 --> 00:03:41,133
Speaker 3: tail enders, look, you suck at betting, you're not a

74
00:03:41,133 --> 00:03:43,333
Speaker 3: good better, so go out there and just have a heave.

75
00:03:43,773 --> 00:03:45,973
Speaker 3: You know, you might as well score twelve quick runs

76
00:03:45,973 --> 00:03:46,533
Speaker 3: and then get out.

77
00:03:46,973 --> 00:03:50,213
Speaker 2: Speaking of a heave, came Williamson just followed up that

78
00:03:50,333 --> 00:03:53,853
Speaker 2: six with a four to move to one hundred and four.

79
00:03:54,693 --> 00:03:58,093
Speaker 2: So look, we're looking very good. But as you say, England,

80
00:03:58,173 --> 00:03:59,933
Speaker 2: with their Bears ball ways, we want to have at

81
00:03:59,973 --> 00:04:02,613
Speaker 2: least five hundred on them. I do wonder if perhaps

82
00:04:02,813 --> 00:04:05,333
Speaker 2: you know, there's been rumors coming from around the country

83
00:04:05,413 --> 00:04:08,293
Speaker 2: at various flash golf courses that these boys, the single

84
00:04:08,533 --> 00:04:11,253
Speaker 2: team have been really enjoying their golf over the last

85
00:04:11,333 --> 00:04:14,373
Speaker 2: few weeks. I've heard rumors that their target each game

86
00:04:14,413 --> 00:04:17,733
Speaker 2: has been to be done by the third day. I

87
00:04:17,813 --> 00:04:19,493
Speaker 2: did hear in that last test that they had a

88
00:04:19,533 --> 00:04:22,853
Speaker 2: tea time booked on the fifth day, So I just

89
00:04:22,933 --> 00:04:25,133
Speaker 2: wonder if maybe there's a bit of fatigue sitting it

90
00:04:25,773 --> 00:04:28,093
Speaker 2: in the English team. Yeah, well, they paid the deposit

91
00:04:28,173 --> 00:04:30,213
Speaker 2: and you can't get that back at the flash golf

92
00:04:30,253 --> 00:04:33,253
Speaker 2: courses so much. Sam and I Stewart And if you

93
00:04:33,253 --> 00:04:35,733
Speaker 2: see a camel when you were watching the footage that

94
00:04:35,853 --> 00:04:38,773
Speaker 2: was sent down there by the ACC to celebrate Tim

95
00:04:38,773 --> 00:04:42,853
Speaker 2: Southy and his final game, He's known as the Sexy camel,

96
00:04:42,893 --> 00:04:44,933
Speaker 2: and I think it's been a great celebration for him. Yeah,

97
00:04:45,053 --> 00:04:45,653
Speaker 2: ugly camel.

98
00:04:45,733 --> 00:04:48,533
Speaker 3: We've had a lot of feedback on the camel. The

99
00:04:48,573 --> 00:04:50,933
Speaker 3: main of the camel is underneath its neck as opposed

100
00:04:50,933 --> 00:04:54,093
Speaker 3: to on the top, and camel's actually don't have top teeth,

101
00:04:54,173 --> 00:04:55,493
Speaker 3: but this one does.

102
00:04:55,573 --> 00:04:57,333
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's got a weird to pay on its

103
00:04:57,373 --> 00:05:00,173
Speaker 2: hump as well. But anyway, come on, the black Caps

104
00:05:00,173 --> 00:05:01,053
Speaker 2: give a taste of Kiwi.

105
00:05:01,173 --> 00:05:02,253
Speaker 3: Yeah, good to see you mate.

106
00:05:02,293 --> 00:05:04,253
Speaker 2: It is twenty seven past three.

107
