  • Weekly Update – 24 October 2009
    Parnell Cricket Club Incorporated - Established 1858 Update No.174 – Black Caps Pipped Again Unbelievable – Deja Vue – Black Caps Pipped Again! Call it what you will, the Tie at Eden Park on Sunday, in the series deciding 5th T20, was the most extraordinary coincidence. Again, NZ lost fewer wickets to England, the winner of the “super over”. But who makes the rules by which these games are played? Consider these logics: CRICKET IS A GAME BETWEEN TWO TEAMS – OBJECT TO SCORE MORE RUNS/TAKE MORE WICKETS THAN THE OTHER TEAM • Why then not award the game, when tied, to the Team that loses the fewer wickets – on this basis NZ would have won the ICC CWC (lost only 8 wickets to England’s 10) and yesterday’s T20 (T11) – NZ lost 5, England 7 wickets. • But why, in the ICC CWC, was England able to contest the “super over” – it had lost all 10 wickets. Should have been end of story! • Or, if a “super over” has to be bowled, then wouldn’t it be more logical for the batsmen to be those who were not out or still to bat? Once out means OUT? And bowl only a bowler who hadn’t used his T20 quota. In the interest of fairness and logic! Having got that angst off my chest, what a remarkable game yesterday! Talk of coincidences – and quite extraordinary that the game even took place. We had waited all day Saturday for the forecast rain which, most thankfully, held off. And Sunday morning was fine – when the rain did come, around 11am, it came! The whole of Auckland was blanketed – not too heavy but steady and the wind had dropped.

  • How the Aussies Cooked Our Kiwi
    JT col Jan 4 2020 – cricket disaster How the Aussies cooked our kiwi There can’t be many Kiwis who now believe our cricket team should have been able to hop the Tasman and without proper preparation knock off the full-strength Aussies in their own parched land. There’s several reasons. The obvious one was we didn’t take a proffered chance to train for the savage weather and pitch conditions. As one of the commentators said, the Black Caps looked under-done in experience on the Aussie wickets and playing in much higher temperatures than at home. Acclimatising has always been a problem for cricket teams when they travel, but some small consolation is usually provided by a warm-up match before getting down to business. Not in this case. The Kiwis opted to throw themselves straight into the furnace of Perth and were duly cooked. Only bowler (and second-best Kiwi batsmen in the woeful first innings at Melbourne) Neil Wagner seemed unaffected. By the time they long-hauled back from Perth to the MCG for the much-touted Boxing Day test, the Black Caps were mentally exhausted…apart from Wagner, and Tom Blundell, who didn’t play in Perth. An underlying problem, though, is the world cricket rankings, which had New Zealand at number two and Aussie at five. It’s obvious from its TV commentators what Australia thought of that, although while Ian Smith was in the commentary box they were polite. Former England captain Michael Vaughan said it for them, calling the rankings rubbish, with Australia too low and New Zealand and England too high for credibility.
