Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is the Country Sport Breakfast with Brian Kelly on
Gold Sport. But off we go to jolly old Blighty
catch up with the very latest to in sport from
the UK. Talk Sport Cricket editor, presenter of following on
Cricket podcast, John Norman joins us with his bags just
(00:22):
about packed. I would imagine morning Johnny.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
Yeah, good morning to BK. Yeah, the bags are just
about done. I'm bringing out.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
My clothes, my wife's clothes, my kids clothes.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
They're going to be joining me in a couple of weeks,
so I thought I'd just spare my wife the burden.
Who's gonna have to bring out two kids on their
own all the way to New Zealand's Yeah, bags just
about packed. And I suppose when we do this this
time next week will be in the same time time
zone for once, which would.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Be nice to be real nice. All right, Okay, let's
chat firstly before we touch on the cricket. Rugby and
England four and short year again.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Yeah, they have and it was another impressive performance for
sixty percent of the game. It was another performance which
you know, suggested that a corner had been turned. It
was a performance which you know, had people who aren't
necessarily massive rugby fans engage and infused. But there was
(01:22):
also another performance where England fell short. And you know,
there's just a consistent problem that England have got a
lot of words written about it and there's no disgrace
losing to South Africa. There was no disgrace losing to
New Zealand, more of a surprise lose to Australia. But
this is that England have lost, have lost narrowly and
(01:45):
have failed to protect a lead late in the game.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
A lot of as I say, it's been written about it.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
There's a you know, a lot of people saying at
the end of the day, England have been consistently averaged
for many, many years, despite which is that other countries
are envyous off in terms of the money in the
game in this country. And time again, when it comes
to the big matches against the top sides, top three
(02:13):
or four sides.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
England lose and they'd lost again.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
It doesn't matter that they push South Africa, Australia and
New Zealand all the way. They lost all three games,
and once again there's questions being asked.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
I'm sure there are and of course, poor old Wales.
They can't buy a win either, can they.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
No, and the press which really is on, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
I mean that they've been they hit their peak what
three or four years ago, and ever since they've been
struggling at home in the all two internationals in six
nations as well. Obviously Ron Gatlin's getting a lot of criticism.
So yeah, it's not a happy camp in this part
of the world.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
No, absolutely, All right, well let's talk about cricket and
hopefully you'll have a happy camp and this part of
the world may be because the England team I think
just about a yere.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
I think they arrived yesterday. They've got a four or
five day in Queenstown. Brendan McCallum is leading the way there,
much like they did when they were over at the
start of twenty twenty three. So just a chance for
everyone to reconnect and just have a bit of fun.
I think there's a two day warm up game on
(03:23):
the weekend, so I think we arrive on Saturday and
then they'll be arriving in christ Church on the Monday.
So with the first Test getting underway next Thursday, you're
certainly looking forward interested.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
In this.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Absolutely interested in this series. You know it's always high
but with that three miil win over India, of course
it's only in New Zealand now that can qualify between
these two sides for the World Test Championship Final at
Lord's in June. So New Zealand are going to be confident.
I see came. Williamson has played for the Northern Districts
for the first time in five years yesterday as he
(04:01):
tries to get himself back after a bit of an injury,
and yeah, it's going to be absolutely fascinating. Also throwing
the fact that Tim s Southy has announced that third
Test match is going to be his lost so you
know there's plenty to talk about, plenty to look forward to.
It could be a really cracking Test series.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
He picked the right time to come out and enjoy it,
that's for sure. And we'll end with a fully story
from the UK top players being banned for racially abusing
his teammate.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Yeah this is Benton Kerr. He was at home essentially,
he was on an international break. He was interviewed on
Live TV and he made a bit of a He
made a daft joke about his South Korean teammate Song
and essentially, you know, he doled out racial trope, the
(04:53):
fact that Son looks like you know, a lot of
other South Korean players, and he immediately apologized the player
of self human.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
Some accepted the apology, but.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
You know, at the end of the day, it's very
clear you cannot say stuff like that, and so he's
rightly been penalized. He's going to have to miss out
miss seven games, and hopefully he and everyone else learns
from the matter.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Yeah, hopefully, all right, John, Well next time, as you see,
when we speak next week, you will be here, so
safe travels and we'll catch up with you next week.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
I look forward to it, BK.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
It's going to be a wonderful, wonderful few weeks in
your beautiful country. And very much looking forward to getting
there and getting this twenty seven hour flight behind me
rather in front of me.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
And I tell you what else you're putting behind you
to And that's the actic with a blast that's going
through your country at the moment. Ah, you a little
cold
