D'Arcy Waldegrave: Sportstalk host on the Black Caps' T20 series victory over West Indies

The Black Caps saved their best performance for last and cruised to a T20 International series victory over the West Indies, courtesy of an eight-wicket victory in Dunedin.

For the first time on tour, the result didn’t come down to the final over, as New Zealand completed their win with 26 balls up their sleeve, and kept their perfect record at University Oval in the shortest format intact.

Sportstalk host D'Arcy Waldegrave explained further.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Darcy water Grave sports Stalk Coasters. So us Hallo dares
they're going to win on your show, during your show,
what is it? What do they need? Not a great
deal more two from twenty eight balls, So it looks
like do you see on they're going to roll the
West Indies Chapman twenty off twelve, Conway forty six off
forty one, and I expect that'll be the two runs

(00:21):
they require, still need one more runs. They just sorting
through for a single and that means that Conway's on strike,
so he's on forty six, so they've given him that
one delivery to hike it over or to the boundary
to rack up his fifty. What happened to the Windys?
Does it just too cold for them? It's really really

(00:45):
hard to play in that part of the world because
it is cold. But also that ball's hooping. Here we go,
he's coming in and he's attempted that forty tripped and
he's heard his foot. But they weren't the game anyway,
rat bet responsible was that was such a all finished
I mean I was expecting that, as you said, like
a good smash. It was not even a great strike.
Well had chance opportunity given. But yeah, we went by

(01:09):
eight wickets, so that's drubbing. So let's talk about what's
happening in tab Land and what you're going to bet.
As I said R eighteen, bet responsibly, which is funny
when it comes to me, because I'm not very good
at doing that. I thought I was in last week
with my four leg Rugby MAULTI and I wasn't because
you know what happened. Know what happened. Let me give
you the tip. Australia got beaten by Italy. I mean

(01:32):
of all of the games, I'm like, the Ausies are
so inconsistent. Really really, it's like what losing combination. I've
got a snorter for you. It's paying ten thousand, six
hundred and twenty three dollars per dollar invested. So what
I'm going for is six as eight games of football

(01:52):
over the next week, and I'm picking the drawers for
all of them. So what I've done is I found
the games where the odds are pretty close, like you know,
to X three twenty kind of like that, not completely
imbalanced ones, but the ones that so Slovakian or on
island Cape Verde, the Iran, Ecuador, versus Canada, who's best done, Egypt, Venezuela, Australia, USA, Paraguay, Mexico, Uruguay, Cameroon,

(02:18):
and the Democratic Republic of Congo. And if every one
of those is a draw, I will, I will, I
will win ten six hundred and twenty three dollars. I've
only put a dollar on it. That's it. Why would
why you'd say so, I'll have drinks all over me
if that one comes through. Anyway, enough of that, let's
move on to squad. What does it mean that the

(02:39):
one hundred meter women's final is going to be on
day one? They've turned it right the way around. And
we'll talk more about that with Nicky Nichols, she's the
chief officer of the Olympic Committee on the show tonight.
But what I'm lead to believe is that the way
the Americans are putting this Olympic Games on, they actually

(03:00):
need the swimming in the second week, not the first week,
because of how they're going to set the swimming pools
up and where they're going to be. Also, there is
no public money involved in this. They're doing it by themselves.
So they want to start with a huge bang, and
they want a lot of people there, so to figure
of what should we do. I know what we'll do.
We'll start with some incredible finals. So for the one

(03:21):
hundred meter runners, the wa running one hundred meters, three
heats in the morning session, cup of teena lie down,
and then they've got the semi finals in the final.
At the end of it, they've got the women. Seven's on.
Maddie Weshi hopefully in the shop, but she'll be discussed,
she'll be she'll be also competing. I just get you

(03:41):
know that one of they're throwing a plate or a rock,
one of the two that's a throwing thing. I don't know.
The triathon's right at the start. You know what I
read today that they're looking like, get this, They're looking
like there are fourteen million tickets available for the two weeks.
I thought that's got to be a typo, but I

(04:03):
don't think it is well that that would make sense.
Fourteen million. I suppose that's quite a lot, because then
you think about it, it's a million tickets a day,
seven million a week. Yeah, yeah, a million tickets a day.
I suppose you've got to look at all the team
events and the size of the team events and all
the venues and that sids like, well, Jesus tells you
how much money they make it? Yeah o the old
Olympic comman. You know what they'd be doing with that money?

(04:26):
No keeping it, thank you very much. There's such a
main joke. I don't know why I enjoyed it. That's true.
It's true. Do Watergrave Sports Store Coast be back with
