New Zealand v England, 1st T20, Auckland, 9 February, 2013
Symmetrical looking tour of 3 x T20s, 3 x ODIs & 3 x Tests.

Seems like Vettori won't play a part in the test series.

Still injured? Retired from Tests?

Aye, especially for his batting nowadays, and not being named Jeetan Patel too.

What's wrong with Vettori? If it's his back, retirement probably beckons.

An Achilles tendon injury. Still will be tough to come back.
There were noises in NZ about his retirement before the South Africa test series. Been somewhat quelled since then.

So only Taylor of their three absent big names to return? I suppose he will probably double the average contribution of the top six, even though he only averages 40 or so...

Shame really, I'm sure they'd make all the difference.
Re: New Zealand v England, 1st T20, Auckland, 9 February, 2013
Another 20/20 international - I'm all agog.

Is it going to be played in one of those NZ rugby stadiums with a 50 metre boundary on one side?

Much prefer the 3,3,3 format of the tour to any tour that includes 5 ODIs - seriously who cares enough about shitty ODI cricket enough to need 5 matches to conclude.

Seems to be moving towards the standard format.

Don't you lot want 1 Test, 12 T20s and 5 ODIs?
Re: New Zealand v England, 1st T20, Auckland, 9 February, 2013
I'd pay good money to see a series of Superovers. First to 21 wins the game. Just like Ping Pong. Yes, that's what I would like to see.

Remember seven match ODI series? Aren't Aus scheduled to play one of them in October? What a f*cking nightmare.

It's bad enough, as I mentioned in the Strino thread, that the WI are coming over for a 5-matcher and 1 (or 2) T20s.

Only 5 more sleeps.

I assume its also the 9th in the northern hemisphere so, yes.
NZ won the toss & are bowling.
Re: New Zealand v England, 1st T20, Auckland, 9 February, 2013
This match is not being telecast (AFAIK), clearly has to be the eight up here.

Fox are showing it here. Looks like England will walk it in so prolly not a lot of interest.
Even the big cheese has forgotten to Rikki it.
