Nice to win a meaningless T20 series no one will remember 2 weeks from now… but seriously how good is Henry across all 3 formats now

[Cyclops]

Good effort from Henry to defend 8 in the final over against two set batters. 2 wickets plus a dropped catch. Another brutal choke in a knock out for the South Africans.

They've already reached their allocation for world titles for the next decade at least

I’ll have forgotten two days from now…

Matt Henry’s improvement across all formats is inspiring stuff. The numbers are excellent across the board.

Still got quite a few years left in the team provided injuries and form don’t become issues for him.

Considering until fairly recently he was pretty much a spare part if Southee/Boult/Wagner broke down he’s done so well to get where he is

Not bad for a one time pie chucker

One of those players where stats and a bit of luck finally swung the way of talent that was always there.

Southee made a career out of chucking pies from start to finish.Now he is teaching the English bowlers not sure what though.

Black Caps captain Tom Latham has been ruled out of the first test against Zimbabwe after suffering a shoulder injury.

He would have been hoping to finally get his first century since 2022.

[Virgil]

Breaks an impressive run for Latham too
its the first test he has missed since 2014..
He had played 88 successive tests
The Black Caps record is 101..can you guess who it belongs to? (without cheating!)

So McCullum played ALL his tests in a row without being rotated, injured or dropped ?

That’s quite impressive I must say.

[MN5]

Here’s my XI for this game

Young
Conway
Ravindra
Nicholls
Mitchell
Blundell
Santner
Smith
Henry
Patel
O’Rourke

KW not being there leaves a fucken chasm at 3….no Latham fucks the batting order too but in saying that they should put these chumps to the sword 2-0

[MN5]

Ok I was one off, Bracewell in for Patel.

Very strong batting line up, maybe a pace bowler short. Nicholls listed at three.

Would like to see a shitload of runs from the much hyped Ravindra

[SouthernMann]

Looking forward to a scratchy 30 from Nicholls

Disappointing Duffy isn't getting a run.
