Never met you Paul but I did think of you when I saw this one....

Giving em a taste of Kiwi!

11AM: How bad could the new administration be? 4PM: And Elon did that how many times?

Well impressed with the skills on display by both Amelia Kerr and Alana King. Accurate, controlled spin bowing with really hard to pick change ups. Trouble any batter that's for sure #cricket #AUSvNZ

That is a ripper from Kerr, would have got anyone in world cricket out with that wrong-un. #WhiteFerns

England must have a tee time booked tomorrow ##NZVENG

Santner and O'rourke what a combo #NZvENG

My houseplants watching me pour water in the coffee maker

Don't worry England fans. Baz Ball is in our head and we'll just get ourselves out. #NZvENG Or is it a ploy to get Southee to 100 6s and snag some late wickets? Faaaark

I refer to my previous comment come on boys it is test cricket

Remember we don't have to play Baz Ball as well #NZvENG that Kane wicket also stuffed a 3 leg Multi 😢

Black caps take note of Australia batting in testing conditions against world class bowlers. YOU CAN LEAVE THE BALL! YOU DON'T NEED TO DEFEND IF IT IS A FOOT OUTSIDE OFF! #AUSvIND ##ENGVNZ

Kane is class, and Tommy can be. But we are not trying to match England's run rate. No need to defend on those two wicket balls leave it to go through to the keeper #ENGvNZ

An out called back on a no ball in two separate games, within 5 minutes of each other. Crazy. #AUSvIND #ENGvNZ

Shit. Went for the "bet I didn't want to win" reverse curse #ENGvNZ

I love Tim Southee so much but get him off and give Willow the nut on this wicket. Timmy probably shouldn't have played, maybe if Sears was fit he might not have. #NZvENG

Peach 🍑 by Mr Darcy! Let's go Henry! #ENGvNZ

For reference, yes we go to quite a few #cricket tests and even get offshore to some, but here is how far ahead we plan (this group started at 2am in the AirBnB garage during the March 2024 test v Australia) #ENGvNZ

Let's go. Test #cricket how good! #ENGvNZ Come on Kiwis!

Is there anything more thrilling than opening Microsoft Authenticator and the auto generated code only has 4 seconds left, and you get that bad boy in on time? Thought not.

All I thought was "Glen McGrath never fielded at point!" #cricket
