Tri Series Cricket

[Chris B.]

We've won the toss and chosen to bat.

Everything else being equal (and Warner said he would have bowled) I would have asked Australia to set the target.

Maybe Kane thinks this is a safer way to protect our run rate advantage?

[Virgil]

Not a bad start 44/0 off 4 overs

[Donsteppa]

Reasonable.

[Damo]

This has been a very naive bowling display so far from Australia. Surely they know that bowling back of a length is the option at Eden park. Not full or slightly full.

[Donsteppa]

Acceptable, even.

[Virgil]

I’m enjoying this...

[Chris B.]

Quite a good first ten overs.

[Virgil]

Anyone play stick cricket on their phone?

[Donsteppa]

When you see someone going for ten runs an over and think they're doing well...

[Donsteppa]

Not bad from Guptill

[Virgil]

Brilliant 100 to guppy

[Virgil]

Roscoe shows them how it’s done at the end

[Donsteppa]

Class from Taylor at the end to finish a great innings.

[Bovidae]

We limped to the finish until Taylor's cameo.

Off-speed deliveries from Boult and Southee look to be the plan.

And take those catches!!!

[Chris B.]

Super stuff that.

Looks like a pitch on which the bowlers are largely helpless, so maybe I should turn it off now and look up the result tomorrow.

Equals our highest T20 innings, but there have been six higher and Oz owns two of them.

[Donsteppa]

That $50k looks like it might be spent tonight.

[KiwiMurph]

Well done that lad in the terraces that caught the 6 with one hand and won $50k - aussies could have used him.

[booboo]

I'll take that
