1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,400 Speaker 1: Now the black Caps T twenty World Cup campaign is 2 00:00:02,440 --> 00:00:06,240 Speaker 1: basically over already and they've only played two games. They've 3 00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:08,119 Speaker 1: lost both of them. The one they lost today was 4 00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:10,880 Speaker 1: to the West Indies by thirteen runs. Cricket commentator Brian 5 00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:12,520 Speaker 1: Waddler is with us now words, Hello. 6 00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:17,079 Speaker 2: Oh hell, how did it go so wrong? They weren't 7 00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:20,760 Speaker 2: prepared properly, they weren't match fit for the first game, 8 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:22,680 Speaker 2: and they weren't able to pick it up against one 9 00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,440 Speaker 2: of the better sides. The West Indies playing at home 10 00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:28,040 Speaker 2: are difficult to play. They played pretty well for the 11 00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:31,440 Speaker 2: first eighteen overs, they had them in trouble of one 12 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:34,080 Speaker 2: hundred and twelve to nine, but then one player and 13 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:37,160 Speaker 2: thirty seven runs off two overs cost them a chance 14 00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:41,920 Speaker 2: to get out whin They got close, but not close enough. 15 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,560 Speaker 2: Conditions were difficult and the West Indies were too good 16 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 2: for them. 17 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 1: Do you think that warm up games would have helped? 18 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,159 Speaker 2: Of course they would. They would have been able to 19 00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:58,160 Speaker 2: play as a team together in conditions that are unusual 20 00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 2: in that part of the world. Expect the grounds in 21 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 2: the West Indies too. In the past as they have 22 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 2: been the bounty and quick, but now they are of 23 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:11,520 Speaker 2: a very slow nature, the bounce is low and you've 24 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 2: got to get used to that and also get some realm. 25 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 2: You can't have players who haven't played match cricket for 26 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:20,959 Speaker 2: three months coming out to play some of the best 27 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,399 Speaker 2: sides in the world. In New Zealand unfortunately had a 28 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 2: tough group the West Indies in Afghanistan first up, and 29 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,959 Speaker 2: that was going to be their downfall, so at least 30 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,480 Speaker 2: one game. The Australians had the same issue that they 31 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 2: made their team up with some of their support staff 32 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 2: so that they had on ground match play and there's 33 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 2: no substject for match blow. 34 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,759 Speaker 1: Absolutely what was that? Was that arrogance on their past? 35 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:44,479 Speaker 1: What do you reckon? 36 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 2: No? I don't believe it's arrogance. I think they were 37 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 2: trying to make as much as they could out of 38 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 2: a small space of time. But they've known for quite 39 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 2: some time the dates of this tournament. They have known 40 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 2: when they would have needed to play. Those had players 41 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 2: who were at the IPL so to to the Australian 42 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 2: so to, so to, diddi you, but they still got 43 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 2: there and were able to play their warm up matches. 44 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,359 Speaker 2: New Zealand's planning, to my mind, was well, we can 45 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 2: do a good job in the nets. We can practicing 46 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 2: conditions we think they're going to be like. But to 47 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:22,680 Speaker 2: my mind that doesn't take up match play. And so 48 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 2: I suppose you could. You could imagine it's a form 49 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 2: of variance, but I don't think New Zealand are like 50 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 2: that when it comes to these competitions. They've got a 51 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 2: record that is, you know, enviable they have in past 52 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 2: games or now they're not going to make the last group. Well, 53 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 2: there is a mathematical chance, but it's stretcher's credibility to 54 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 2: think that Afghanistan won't win a game and New Zealand 55 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 2: will win and score you know, a net run rate 56 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 2: to suit them. 57 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 1: Yeah too right. I mean, I'm just going to encourage 58 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: you to let it. Let go any faint hope you 59 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,640 Speaker 1: may have as a cricket fan. Otherwise your heart's going 60 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:56,919 Speaker 1: to get broken. Just let it be broken. 61 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 2: Now. 62 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 1: For more from Hither Dupless the Ellend, listen live to 63 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 1: news talks it'd be from four pm weekdays, or follow 64 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: the podcast on iHeartRadio.
