Kiwis 4/217 at the moment.
Williamson on 90 not out.

I'm on a couple of kiwi cricket groups on social media. For months they have been absolutely giving it to Williamson saying he is ****, can't be picked, he's finished, has no loyalty due to not accepting a nz contract etc.. List goes on.
Same blokes are now writing on there, the king is back baby, i knew he had this in him, best batsman i the world once again etc haha

I reckon a few people on here are also in those groups, seems way to similar :cool::ROFLMAO:

Beau Webster seems worth a crack


Webster, who hails from Snug in Tasmania’s south, has been one of the most consistent Sheffield Shield cricketers over the past 24 months – since the start of 2022/23, he has accumulated 1788 runs at 51.08, including five hundreds and nine fifties. Only one cricketer has managed more runs during that period – West Australian opener Cameron Bancroft.

The 30-year-old is also a handy right-armed seamer, claiming 30 Sheffield Shield wickets at 29.30 last summer. During the recent Australia A series against India A, he scored 145 runs at 72.50 and contributed seven wickets.

He also enjoyed a successful stint at Gloucestershire in the County Championship over the winter, cracking 233 runs at 58.25 and snaring 16 scalps at 21.25, including a career-best bowling performance of 6-100 against Derbyshire.

During this week’s Sheffield Shield match against New South Wales at the SCG, Webster notched scores of 61 and 49 while also claiming five wickets. He struck twice in what proved the final over of the match to help Tasmania clinch a 55-run victory, the state’s first win of the season, with 13 minutes remaining on day four.

I've lost a few things out of our team kit bag. Things seem to go wandering with kids!

For sure. Cricket balls and batting gloves i've noticed over the years are the two main things that 'disappear' :LOL:
I don't keep new balls in the kit. In fact I don't even use them for the under 10s, massive waist of money given they're not leather. Told the club they can have them back at the end of the season.

Beau Webster likely to debut. Averaging over 50 with the bat past 18 months, not too shabby for an all rounder.

Likely to replace Marsh who may be injured, otherwise wouldnt mind them giving him Labs spot

Watch Lasagna score a hundred then cement his spot for the next 12 months whilst doing **** all during that time.
Just something about him I've never liked. Seems like one of those real annoying pricks who need a good punch to the head that you run into at the pub

Probably won't even be a 100 it'd probably be like 32 at an okay rate and then 48 and they'll be like 'clearly working his way back into form'
