He used to be a good ODI bowler and a pretty rubbish test bowler, and then around 2015 his ability in tests and ODIs just went on totally different trajectories
Great game by both sides. Fantastic recovery by our brothers India after Lockie's 2 wicket over. Got to admit when we were 3 down I rolled my eyes but both men pulled of something special. We'll leave the little kids boundary park and see how we do at a decent ground next game.
Man what a come back from the Aus ODI series Kane is back in form, Tommy has a new high score and despite his poor record against other SENA nations he just keeps rolling through Asian teams.
just smashed my TV in rage. this team embarassed me in front of my entire family. my 2 kids are in tears, scared of my rage as I pace around the room trembling. I can't take this anymore.
I blame my father for helping me get into cricket. Life would have been so much simpler if I would not have supported this horrendous excuse of a team and emotionally invested in them. Absolutely horrible
This isn't even Latham's final form. Two games from now you'll all have to look into the eyes of Hagley Park Tom Latham. That man is a different beast but the same animal.
Latham has consistently smashed around India at home for several years. No IPL interest for him whatsoever. Why would he suddenly "be playing for that auction" now at age 30?
I was in college and missed this match :(
say what you want but Iyer scores consistently despite his short ball weakness
I see him as the next Kohli in consistency.
Why Thakur played ahead of Chahar?
Average indian fan complaining after match ends π
Ideal lineup for next match
Only for them to play exact same XI
Sky in PANT out
I wouldn't count out Sky this fast
Another forgettable outing by chahal?
So team is pretty much set except 2 spots
Lol no Arshdeep is not a starter in ODI. Siraj and Shami are way ahead of him
I wouldn't rule out Sundar , he's pretty good in this format and could make it to WC squad if he remains Fit
India truly bipolar in NZ haven't lost a single t20i since past 7-8 t20is, we've lost all past 6-7 test and ODIs
Jeez Southee is actually dogshit in ODI, opening bowler with an average of almost 34 yikes'
He used to be a good ODI bowler and a pretty rubbish test bowler, and then around 2015 his ability in tests and ODIs just went on totally different trajectories
Yea that's why he fell out of favour from the starting team 4 years ago
Is Siraj being rested ? For what exactly ? He is our best ODI bowler this year
I think Siraj has left this squad to join the squad that will be leaving for Bangladesh.
First match lost...all according to plan
All according to the keikaku(keikaku means plan)
Great game by both sides. Fantastic recovery by our brothers India after Lockie's 2 wicket over. Got to admit when we were 3 down I rolled my eyes but both men pulled of something special. We'll leave the little kids boundary park and see how we do at a decent ground next game.
Well played NZ, Latham took the game away
Man what a come back from the Aus ODI series Kane is back in form, Tommy has a new high score and despite his poor record against other SENA nations he just keeps rolling through Asian teams.
His ODI record against England is also quite good if I recall correctly.
If only India had Ashwin. The game would be over 30 mins ago. And NZ would have won.
As we know, there are only two spinners available in the entirety of India, and which one to choose is a topic of nationwide meditation.
The sheer disrespect towards Anna & Axar on this sub is baffling
Ashwin >>> Chahal
What if he mankaded 6 players in an over? Could have turned the game.
LMAO
Tom Latham brought gun to a sword fight.
So anyways, he started blasting.
100% rain in Hamilton on 27th. So no revenge?
Could have a game reduced to about 20 overs, we'd be fucked.
Who dis Amish guy
let Bracewell play next match dammit!!!!
yes please for Milne, do not need 4 right arm pacers
Kane : Nope
Shikhar's accent is interesting! Doesn't seem fake, but doesn't seem Indian too
He was married to an Australian. When you live with someone with a foreign accent, it changes yours
His is shikhardian accent
Blackcaps made that look easy in the end, what a brilliant partnership! And some absolute village fielding near the end
GG India. Youβll be smashing it next game.
Not with Chahal and Shardul bowling 20 overs. They will get smacked.
Smooth as butter this chase by NZ
I know that I am generalising but Indian fans are the biggest hypocrites
Dear Mr. Average Chut Lover. You are definitely not an average chut lover.
Explanation:- Different formats.
Cant win anything remotely important. At least win meaningless bilaterals . I mean if India stop even winning bilaterals what are they paying for ???
Ah we don't really care about this match.Atleast umran and Samson got chances. It's all for fun
That's
I miss some Aakash Chopra commentary for some reason.
Jiski batting dekhne ke liye ye lamha gaya hai Tham, voh hai apne Tom Latham.
just smashed my TV in rage. this team embarassed me in front of my entire family. my 2 kids are in tears, scared of my rage as I pace around the room trembling. I can't take this anymore.
Chal Jaa ke so ja chup chap
Feed one kid to the other
I mean even if India sent their "First XI", you're still playing NZ in NZ at our best format.
India should've included a 6th bowling option
Yep a tough place to blood young players, unless your name is Tendulkar.
Oh ODI Cricket, you have been missed
So much better than T20. This format combines the best of test and short format and is a better benchmark for talent.
I am just happy to see ODIs back . And preparing for a proper World Cup happens every 4 years and has legacy
Outdated batting approach costs us in ODIs as well now.
300 is par? how much did NZ defend in the WC semi again? might need to jog my memory
This is one of the wittiest comment in this thread
Eden Park is a tricky ground to bat on (the small boundaries are tempting, but the ball still needs to be worked around the ground).
Seriously stop blaming your batting ffs, you should focus on your bowling
Bilaterals suddenly became important for Indian fans
Tommy...he has no neck lol
No neck - just traps.
Sharks don't look back
ICT wins : Who cares itβs a inconsequential bilateral nobody gives a shit about it.
Both those notions have very valid reasons to exist.
That is how it should be. The basic expectation is to win home games. Nothing great in that. Raise the bar
Latham averages 65 against India in ODIs and just 14 against Australia
I know, All the Aussie quicks seem to have his number, but Latham is a monster just about anywhere else
[ΡΠ΄Π°Π»Π΅Π½ΠΎ]
[ΡΠ΄Π°Π»Π΅Π½ΠΎ]
bitter experience.
For you
Latham warming up for his triple century against SL in the tests
Keep going, I'm almost there
Can take the pads off now GP
I really wish we played more ODIs. This was so much better than a t20
[ΡΠ΄Π°Π»Π΅Π½ΠΎ]
Australia can. Ave of 14.
KW showing again that he's still one of the best #3 batter in odis.
#daretodream
So we can't even win in bilaterals? Pathetic shitters
Lmao y u care tho??? Atleast we r not bilateral bullies now, r we??
so..Latham buying all the drinks for both teams tonight? lol
Maybe when they go to Hamdog, then only because there is a firecats end.
Test cricket is what matters. Who cares about useless bilateral T20, ODIs anyway. Right? Right?
Chill bro
Yep. Agree. Well keep that inaugural WTC thanks.
It's incredible how easy they made it look. Exquisite batting and am happy Kane got a good innings under his belt, he's not been at his best of late
Hasn't be only played 7 ODI's in three years?
Player: KW
Task failed successfully
I love ODI cricket
Same <3
The only format that matters!
Phillips probably seething he didn't get a chance to smash these bowlers on this groind
...smash these bowlers on his groin
Having trouble imagining GP seething about anything, doesn't seem like that kind of bloke
play fucking kabaddi and ipl lol. while the rest of the world competes for wins in every major sport
Calm down bro
I don't think there is a need to downplay kabaddi
Murali Karthik taking the phrase "breaking the sweat" to literal level
GG India bros let's go again in 2days
Rishab pant and rishab thakur
Another embarrassing performance by the bowlers
Nah there were some very good spells. Kano and Latham were just too good today.
I blame my father for helping me get into cricket. Life would have been so much simpler if I would not have supported this horrendous excuse of a team and emotionally invested in them. Absolutely horrible
Calm down bro
Praise your father. Without him you would not have seen the brilliance of little Tommy Latham. What a time to be alive!
Calm down dude we literally lost first game on this tour lol
Kanos gave Latham hope that he could reach his 150 and then snatched it away in an instant.
How dare Kanos not hog the strike to get to 100? SMH. He will surely go unsold this IPL!!!!
Williamson saying sorry to Latham there. Played it too perfectly by mistake
Oopsie boundary
Neither the 150 from Tommy nor the 100 from Kanos, boo these men, boo!
India loses again due to their over cautious batting
Openers again
That was the only thing that caused them to lose?
And trusting Shardul and Chahal to bowl 20 overs.
Are all 4 back in form?
Root was never out of form.
I hope
Beautiful Kanos. ODI cricket suits him so well
This does put a smile on my face
Latham made batting look so easy tonight
Wonderful knock
An aggressive declaration. Love the intent
Hahaha
Fucking class finish.
Well done lads. Great batting
This isn't even Latham's final form. Two games from now you'll all have to look into the eyes of Hagley Park Tom Latham. That man is a different beast but the same animal.
Latham is to us, what koach is for pak.
Kane took revenge
that NZ supporter really liked that 4 lol
My OCD. Both are stranded. Damn you both.
The incompetency of indian t20 first team is trickling down to the second squad
Sad thing is this comment isnt even satire
221 run partnership
Lmao
Kane Humbleson
Let's be honest - Indians bowlers were all shit and got smacked around.
Umran and Sundar bowled really well, dude.
Philipps:- Wtf guys, kept me waiting all match, don't play me if u don't wanna make me batπ
He made a great catch in the 1st though.
Kanos- Definition of Unselfishness
Selfless is the opposite of selfish just fyi
Enough with the Kane glorifying come on.
I don't wanna look too much into this 2nd string XI series, but maybe we gotta change our bowling coach.
I can't believe we have to put up with a captain who values a team win over personal milestones, ffs
Yeah it's weak stuff. Show some selfishness Kano. I want the small bat raise and sly smile
Single and a six coming up, Tommy to get 150
Meanwhile Kane: Not today, kid
Latham has consistently smashed around India at home for several years. No IPL interest for him whatsoever. Why would he suddenly "be playing for that auction" now at age 30?
his latest power bill
This Latham guy is India's nemesis. Always plays well against us. π«€
Latham. De Kock. Smith.
Ffs Sunder should've scored more so that we could've gotten Kanos 100 and Latham 150 smh /s
This match has clearly shown that Chahal and Lord aren't a good ODIs pick.
Chahar is great but he might be fragile as hell considering his injury woes. Shame really, as he has that "go for the win" attitude.
That was a decent ODI. Missed this format NGL
ODI's are like a mini-test match. Love it.
well this wasnt close at all
Kanos now, give single to Latham so he can reach 150
This chase and partnership has been perfection, it feels too easy. What amazing batting
Kane Humbleson rather get partner's 150 than self's century
Didn't let that happen either lol. Both playing selflessly.
Latham absolutely hates Chahal
Stop! They're dead already.
9+ Economy Arshdeep is for T20Is.
Ah man, Kane robbed of a century. Incredible innings by Latham though.
Fucking cunt the last one for six Tommy. Kanos, pop him a single so he can.
i hate Latham
On the other hand I love him :D
Kane might be the only player getting criticism for his kindness.
As somebody who has said tom Latham should be in the T20 team for years and years this feels very good to watch
Yeah. He only seems to be there as a specialist captain of a "Super Smash All-Stars" team.
Another 4th wicket partnership fucking up India here. How many times have we seen that this year?
Tbf this a 5th wicket partnership
When did Pant get thicc?
When I put them on ππ
He just seems to have more junk in the trunk than he used to
