Cricket: NZ vs Aus
-
Truly awful shot given the circumstances. We need Ross to stand up again, our captain is letting us down this series.

Is it just me or is Kane a bit like Sachin?
Cracking player but goes missing when the heat is REALLY on?
He's played some really poor shots in one of our biggest ever test series. Not sure he's handling the pressure too well.

@Rembrandt yes
Well I might just turn it off then. Enough punishment for today.

He actually looked really solid to start but then that was just out of nowhere. Very poor.

Stay tuned to watch the Breakers tonight. They won’t disappoint.....

Pretty poor decision really. Hit on the flap of the pad on the front foot, that's pretty much always going over unless the pitch has 0 bounce.

@No-Quarter agreed, especially with their bowlers' height.

Pathetic

@barbarian Don't worry - we've got TJ and Nisbo lining up for another year...
Losing Blundell in that session was always on the cards. Losing Kane to a loose shot is a bit of a bugger.
But, we've taken a bit of shine off the ball and put a little bit of work into the bowlers. It's not unplayable and we just need our guys to play to their ability and a bit of luck and we can escape with a draw.
Not that keen on the forecast tomorrow morning - I'd like it dawning fine and clear. Or alternatively, pissing with rain to help with the bushfires....

Yeah guys, the officials and the commentators have really screwed you in this one.
I started the commentator thing by saying they hadn’t annoyed me too much. So sorry.
As for Erasmus. 3 poor decisions isn’t a good look. The review system can work to eradicate bad officiating fortunately, it would be good if they were even close.

The same combination of factors have robbed the Wallabies of at least eight Bledisloes.
I’d agree, but then again you did have the greatest Waratahs coach of all time leading your national side, so really no excuses when it comes to the Wallabies.

We're not out of the game by any stretch. Losing Kane was a blow but we've got plenty of batting. If Ross can score big we are right in the contest. Big day for the Caps tomorrow, the whole series rests in it.
