    Yup that was a key moment. Also fuck moving Warner down the order to accomodate washed up Watson. Warner should open every game, end of.

    Bowled exactly what was needed in these conditions. Has a decent slower ball that the Aussies didn't read so well. <br><br>
    I guess they see this fired up sort of fella and think he'll come steaming in at 135-140. But he was bowling good slower balls 120 and below.

    Interesting contrast. Dhoni post match: "Our batsmen got themselves out. It's all the batsmens fault" (paraphrasing). Smith post match: "Credit to the way the NZ bowlers bowled in the middle stages".<br><br>
    I want to hate Smith because he's so fucking good but he isn't making it easy.

    <p>Timmy and Trent rush back tot he nets to practice their cutters, slower balls and back of the hand deliveries because that's what gets Mitch and Milne the nod</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Milne was actually good today. He's quicker than most and that sets up his cutter from the side of his hand. The dramatic pace change. Those 2 he bowled to Maxwell (he's not so bright me thinks) were pretty much spot on but french cuts don't show up in stats (copyright MN5).</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Hats off Hesson and Kane.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Batting still needs more ones and twos in the middle and ultra energetic running, but I don't know what pitches are like in the next 2 games.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Happy times though</p>

    <p>Yep keep Milne unless/until he breaks down.</p>
    <p>Always handy to have up your sleeve for blasting out lusty tailenders; especially now that T&T no longer have the raw pace required to do so.</p>

    <p><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:tahoma, arial, sans-serif;font-size:11px;">England require another 59 runs with 6 wickets and 36 balls remaining<br><br>
    They might do this. Bonkers.</span></p>

    <p>I was thinking that about the wickets, but quite ok to see Ind and Oz off on non roads. We got the pakis and a chance to make it at Chandigar - no idea about that surface, but in Kane we trust</p>
