NZ v Australia Test #1

[Mokey]

<p>If we get to 200 it will be a bloody miracle. Fuck there have been some godawful shots played today.</p>

<p>450-500 isn't out of reach if these two really apply themselves. Craigs height is such an unbelievably good asset when he bats. Remarkable really .</p>

<p>Still trying to pretend that taller bowlers don't find it easier to get more bounce?</p>

[Donsteppa]

<p>Will have to be 525/8 dec now...</p>

[NTA]

<p>Nice hitting, Mr Anderson</p>
<p> </p>

[Gunner]

<p>Might as well declare and get the Aussies in ASAP, while there still might be a slither of assistance in the pitch for the bowlers.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Unless Tim feels like bashing 50 off 20 balls, then I'm happy for them to hold off on the declaration for another 5 overs.</p>

[No Quarter]

<p>Just need Southee to come off like he's never come off before.</p>

[Glath]

<p>That's so Southee.</p>

[MN5]

<p>Yep, that shot was lame as fuck.</p>

[SammyC]

<p>Mark Craig could replace a few of our top order batsmen. </p>

[Gunner]

<p>Can just see DDD knocking most of these 140 runs off himself and Aussie ending up 150/0 at the end of the day</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Fuck, what a way to ruin a Friday.</p>

[No Quarter]

<p>Craig takes 16 from a Siddle over.</p>

<p> </p>
<p>Yep, who knew he'd been recalled to be our best batsman today...</p>

[taniwharugby]

<p>all bonus from here and will no doubt frustrate the Aussies.</p>

[ACT Crusader]

<p>Boult only knows one way....</p>

[Virgil]

Could have been much worse, think we will take that.

[NTA]

<p>Now to see if our knob-ends can stand up to a bit of accuracy and a wicket doing more than a road.</p>

[SammyC]

<p>Shit effort from everyone except Anderson, Watling and Craig.</p>

[Chris B.]

<p>The 10th and 8th wicket partnership are our best - perhaps indicating the early life in the pitch has settled down.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We haven't quite lost the test in the first session, but we've taken some massive strides towards it.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Very disappointing!</p>

[booboo]

So ... Australia trail by 183 currently ...

<p>He's not even tall. Nice gutsy innings though.</p>
