1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,400 Speaker 1: Jason pine Sports Store coasters with me Piney, Hello, Hello, Heather. 2 00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:04,840 Speaker 1: All right, the black Caps. Are they going to be 3 00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:05,760 Speaker 1: able to turn this around? 4 00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:07,200 Speaker 2: Well, they're going to have to if they want to 5 00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:10,400 Speaker 2: stay in this tournament. Saturday was a bit abject, wasn't it. 6 00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:13,399 Speaker 2: Humiliation at the hands of Afghanistan all out seventy five, 7 00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:16,439 Speaker 2: losing by eighty odd runs. You can pick over the 8 00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:17,919 Speaker 2: bones of that as much as you like, but the 9 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:20,799 Speaker 2: factor is they now must beat the co hosts, the 10 00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:23,680 Speaker 2: West Indies on Thursday. Otherwise they're not going to progress 11 00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 2: beyond the group stages, which would be I think they're 12 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:29,320 Speaker 2: worst ever showing at a White Ball World Cup for 13 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:32,159 Speaker 2: certainly for a very long time. So look, can they 14 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:34,640 Speaker 2: fix it? I think they can, but they don't have 15 00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:35,800 Speaker 2: a heck of a lot of time. I'd make a 16 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:38,479 Speaker 2: couple of changes. Get Rich and Ravindra in there, get 17 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:41,480 Speaker 2: Jimmy Nisham in there, and try and do something about 18 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:44,280 Speaker 2: the batting order that just failed so miserably the other day. Look, 19 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,520 Speaker 2: they can fix it, but I'm not one hundred percent 20 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 2: confident that they that they will in time. Unfortunately, is 21 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:54,080 Speaker 2: it the pitch? Well, both teams have to bat on it, right, 22 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 2: So look, yeah. 23 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, But so the argument is both teams have to 24 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:00,520 Speaker 1: bat on it, but some teams just expect and they 25 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 1: can't handle crappy crappy turf. 26 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 2: I tell what would have been handy would be getting 27 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:06,280 Speaker 2: there early for a couple of warm up games to 28 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 2: get used to the news, to the conditions. That was 29 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:10,679 Speaker 2: I think a major oversight by New Zealand cricket. 30 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 1: How good are the Warriors. 31 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:16,679 Speaker 2: Three or three from three Bay back in the Winter's Circle? 32 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 1: What is it all in their heads? 33 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 2: Well, I don't know, but look you look at it 34 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 2: and the well, not a funny thing, but that this 35 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 2: has been achieved the last three wins without Sean Johnson, 36 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:27,119 Speaker 2: without Roger. 37 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: They've got a theory. I've got a theory that in 38 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 1: that little bad patch they were playing, they were forcing 39 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:37,199 Speaker 1: their star players to play with injury and it wasn't working. 40 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 1: So so Sean Johnson was injured, and was it Egan 41 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 1: as well. 42 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 2: Egan and also Roger to varsa check wasn't wasn't as 43 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 2: as flash as he could have. 44 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 1: So they had these guys on there who were really 45 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 1: crucial to the game, but they were injured. They were 46 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: carrying these niggles and some of the other squads may 47 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 1: have known and kind of gone for that a little bit, 48 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 1: and when they were off, they were replaced by perfectly 49 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: fit men who did a great job. 50 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 2: So when the stars come back, fit one hundred percent fit. Heather, 51 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 2: if I take your theory to it next, you know 52 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 2: when yes, and have and have much greater depth because 53 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,919 Speaker 2: these plans, the foot ones have stepped in in time 54 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 2: and in times of need, and we'll now be there 55 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:12,959 Speaker 2: at that time. 56 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 1: Ri Again, I know nothing about sport, so you need 57 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,519 Speaker 1: to adjudicate on whether my theory makes any sense. 58 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 2: Can I can I let you I can let you 59 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 2: know in a month. 60 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: Oh jeezus, that's annoying, isn't it. Well? The proof, the 61 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 1: proof of the puddings in the eating when back me 62 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: know Piney, because I'll also be watching, I'll let myself 63 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 1: know if I'm right or not. Jeez Fair enough, Piney, 64 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: Thank you very much appreciated.
