eljay 1,720 Report post Posted December 27, 2019 Did Williamson err (again) by putting the Aussies in to bat? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trump 2,741 Report post Posted December 29, 2019 It’s a pity that Williamson and especially Taylor are one day cricketers and not genuine Test Batsmen. Taylor is very Suss against the Genuine quicks and showed no fight when needed. So much talk about Santner, at least he’s showing some spine with the bat - unlike Taylor and Williamson.

Utter bullshit Trump. Its easy to argue...with Facts... that Williamson is NZ's greatest ever Test batsmen. Sure he's struggled this time in Aussie but he holds most Test batting records for NZ. Highest average[minimum 20 bats] ,fastest to score 5000 test runs and has scored centuries against all Test nations. So he leads Martin Crowe , Turner , Fleming ,Sutcliffe etc etc. Taylor also despite his quirks has an impressive average , great career for NZ etc. Give them a bit of respect....and don't talk shit !

eljay 1,720 Report post Posted December 30, 2019 Somehow NZ have to show grit and determination before a test, not just the beginning of the inevitable. They should treat any individual score under 40 as a failure and similarly taking less than 2 wickets. And while it is good for the selectors to show faith, they also have to be ruthless and not be afraid to drop players. At the moment the players know they will still be in team regardless of failures. Trump 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Taylor gone again cheaply in Sydney - dangling the bat out in front. 22 runs just when the team needed him to stand up.
