@Gilbert36171434 I'm no fan of Ardern but it's not like you have to watch the movie.

What is this puke-worthy crap AirNZ?

@scrumming_ten What nonsense lol, the literal breakthrough player of last year was an All Black.

New Zealand fans hyping up Beuden Barrett in 2026 is wild Just shows that they haven't produced one worldclass player since South African teams left Super Rugby

@IS_Netwrk29 That wasn't a good ball though.

🚨 BLESSING MUJARABANI ON FIRE !🔥🤯 “Pacer Blessing Muzarabani dismissed Kiwi batsman Tim Seifert in the very first over.”🔥

@BLACKCAPS @PhotosportNZ Why bring in anyone new when we can bring in a 35 year old.

An update to the squad for the fourth KFC T20I starting this evening at 7:15pm in Wellington. #NZvSA | 📸 @PhotosportNZ

@foreverblackcap @SAMROSSANN @brookyarena I wonder if they be bold and pick him for the NZ A tour for Sri Lanka. He's still very inexperienced with not even a single domestic season under his belt but as a left armer, he should be fasttracked for higher honours if he can.

Thomas O'Connor in last 2 matches 🔥 Batting: 21 & 84* (90) Bowling: 4/86 & 3/65, 7/58 & 6/27 👉 105 runs + 20 wickets (avg 11.8) 🤯 A new sensation in New Zealand Cricket - a 21y/o left-armer NZC can’t ignore this kind of impact much longer. @SAMROSSANN @brookyarena

@ShafiUOfficial It's a 50K stadiu for a T20 immediately after the pinnacle of the format with both nations putting out B teams.

Almost half of the stadium is empty 😳 Crowd support in New Zealand is quite disappointing. Even though their stadiums are beautiful, we still don’t see full-house crowds — not even in T20 matches. 🏏 What could be the reason behind this? 👀 #NZvSA #NZvsSA

@foreverblackcap O'Rourke coming back from injury would be a good choice but they probably want game time under his belt if he were to be chosen.

6 best replacement of Nathan Elis for CSK imo - Bartman Sears Will O' Rourke Coetzee David payne Josh Tongue These are best options available.

@RMTBolton The worst decision is no decision, all the stakeholders deserve certainty.

Of course NZC kicks the can down the road, or at least the announcement of their decision. We all know the decision will at least be the effective death of Super Smash, the men's version at least. I have a nearly 1700-word eulogy for it prepared to go, at least.

@AryanGoelNew @Lommy0Tatham You're ranked 8th in ODIS.

@Lommy0Tatham Call your father by proper name. England is the father of Chokeland

Ben Sears Is An Excellent Bowler. Has Potential To Be A Great All Format Bowler. He Is Fit As Well. New Zealand Need To Give Him More Opportunities. He Is A Genuine Wicket Taker. Should Be Part Of New Zealand's Main Team

@_SL0WD1V3 @TheACCnz The problem is that would only help our 15 top players and leave everyone else stranded.

@TheACCnz BBL team would be ideal and exciting imo but kiwis would know better..I just think acquiring big talent for a whole new league would be much tougher if the league is in the same calendar spot as the BBL,sa20, ILT20 etc

The fate and future of domestic T20 cricket in NZ could be announced tomorrow. If you had the deciding vote between the franchise NZ20 or adding a Kiwi team into the Big Bash, what would you choose?

@ayushja201728 @ncakos316 That's not true, we're just not playing the talent.

I know the 2 sides are completely different but, as a Proteas fan, its is fucking annoying seeing us all over New Zealand in a game that means absolutely nothing.

@IrishScrum8 @rugbyexpansion Based on what- not winning 2 rugby championships?

South Africa & New Zealand are undoubtably the world’s best teams but the Six Nations is easily the best annual tournament. It seems to have moved up a level this year as well. Almost anyone can beat anyone and now Wales look like they’re improving too. 2027 will be very fun.

Chiquitita is the greatest ever song. Fight me.

@scrumming_ten What about the 1995 world cup when our team was ill?

India have klapped New Zealand in the T20 World Cup final The Black Caps are just the All Blacks without luck The All Blacks won the 1987 WC because the Springboks weren't there, the 2011 World Cup was fixed and had the easier side of the QF draw to make the 2015 WC semis

@PittuS7181 @ragav_x Hagley is probably the 3rd venue for NZ. If there's a 4th it's probably Bay Oval or Hamilton as you suggested.

@ragav_x NZ: wellington, auckland, bayoval or hamilton Aus:perth , Melbourne, sydney , adelaide,hobart or gold coast

T20 WC 2028 updates: • Likely 5 venues in Australia and at least 3 in NZ. • Organising committee finalised, with the former Head of the 2015 CWC (AUS–NZ) appointed as Chair of the T20 WC 2028. Head of T20 WC 2028 said: “It is an exciting time for cricket. This will be the largest cricket World Cup ever hosted in the Southern Hemisphere, providing a significant platform to showcase our region, the enduring bond between Australia and NZ, and the power of cricket throughout the world.”

@foreverblackcap @Crick_logist @dweplea @Fancricket12 @bruce_kane1 @SAMROSSANN We ought to keep backing Mitch Hay imo.

If Allen keeps in ODIs,NZ’s WK-batter headache is solved. Rachin Conway Kane Mitchell Allen(w) Philips Bracewell Santner Henry Jameson Fergusson/Duffy/Wor/Tickner A gun odi team Team to beat in odis Thoughts ? @Crick_logist @dweplea @Fancricket12 @bruce_kane1 @SAMROSSANN

@scrumming_ten We don't have a stadium big enough for more than 50K so it's a bit of a moot point.

Over 87 000 people attended the Soweto derby on Saturday New Zealand can only dream of getting 87 000 people to attend a league game from their national sport

@BlakeCapa @jaredwright17 A lot of the time NZ rugby fans feel unnecessarily picked on.

@jaredwright17 Genuine question: Why is every rugby twitter account from NZ just a troll that offers no insight or analysis?

Issues with Ellis Park are well documented. Have to blatantly ignore it to make this point. Still 11k yesterday. Broadcast is also always from the side that sells better which makes it look worse.

@MargotButcher I like Nicholls and on form alone he definitely deserves a spot but we also need to consider bringing in younger players so we don't have to rebuild from nothing in 2028/2029. Maybe Curtis Heaphy or Rhys Mariu instead.

@scrumming_ten Good on you guys, South Africa seem to be going from strength to strength right now.

The Lions have clinched the URC Shield As a result, all 4 South African teams have now won at least one title since we upgraded to European club rugby
