I started to look at our lineup and began to form a ton of excuses for us not being an A side. Just that OZ look in a slightly similar boat...

[MN5]

We might be crap but it’s fair to say Australia’s A team doesn’t quite resemble this one…..this series was awesome to watch back in the day.

All six of the top order went onto the top team and Hayden, Martyn, Langer and especially Ponting went onto outstanding careers in the longer form, Bevan obviously was a gun in ODI cricket and Blewett had a handy career without setting the world on fire.

I can’t remember any of those bowlers doing anything though.

Ha, NZ A currently 403/7 in their second innings

@Donsteppa I would check some NZ A TAB accounts after day 1 lol

[African Monkey]

We beat Aus A 1-0 in April as well.

[ARHS]

Huge match from Scott Kuggeleijn

[Jailbreak7]

Gawd the BCaps T20 squad is meh.

[Donsteppa]

Some of the comedy cricket the likes of Finn Allen was playing in the US doesn't seem to work so well at this level...

[Jailbreak7]

Farkin hell, looks like we might be on the right side of the ledger for once!! Finn Allen the key, a huge innings set the bar. Jamieson, Sodhi also bowling well. Question - Why didnt we have this approach in the first two matches?

[Jailbreak7]

Am enjoying this on a pleasant sunny Sunday afternoon from my privileged position on the sofa terraces and an ice cold beer in hand. A complete role reversal, BCaps completely dismantling England. A good performance in the field too. Very welcome to see.

What is "this approach"?

[Jailbreak7]

@Rapido An all out attack! Dont wait for England to come to you, go out and attack them from the off....it works!

Batting second?

You'll notice Englands awesome batting in the first two matches somewhat withered as well

Glenn Phillips also chipping in with a handy 69.

[LABCAT]

What a way to start the day!

Started watching just after Phillips and Chapman came together, Phillips took the game away from England and Chapman put the icing on the cake.

[Donsteppa]

Much better than it looked like at the halfway mark. Seemingly a series of who batted second...

[Windows97]

Except for the 2nd and 3rd games were the team who batted first won

But excellent to see NZ have some fight and level the series, first NZA and now this!! Those dammed cricketers using up all that sporting luck the AB's will desperately need...
