Lightning goes off at Eden Park
-
287 is definitely defendable. Add in they are missing their undoubted two best bats, and the guy who glued together their lower middle order in the recent series, and we are in with a shout.
Head the big wicket, and containing the Big Show on a tiny ground.
-
Lots of guys who can do the job for Australia - but, fewer who've played the big hand regularly.
Rossco has more ODI hundreds than the entire Aussie team.
To state the obvious, we simply need to bowl them out or we will almost certainly lose. Keep attacking Kane!

13th highest team score at Eden Park
And the top 4 were all in 2 games. For a midget ground, it doesn't give up big scores all that regularly
Only 3 teams have scored more than this and lost (Zimbos v India, Aus v us, and Pakistan v us). Odds are good lads, load up!

With Warner, Smith and Khawaja, I'd be thinking it's not enough - but, they're not there, so I'm reasonably optimistic.

despite my earlier bravado, i have this sneaking suspicion Finch is going to have a fucking redemption innings today and completely get away from us

I'd be incredibly disappointed if that happens. Finch, Marsh, and Faulkner should fail so badly that they have a line put through their name.
Playing CH twice in a year is... well.... kind of shit.

3.1 Boult to Finch, OUT, Neesham dives to his right from square leg, reaches for the ball with both hands, and plucks it out. Boult and Neesham combine to send back Australia's stand-in captain. Not a happy comeback for Finch. Hip-high short ball outside off, Finch simply flaps a pull to square leg
AJ Finch c Neesham b Boult 4 (7b 0x4 0x6) SR: 57.14 -
fuck we're all over them!
-
Satner got one to spin to get Shaun Marsh. It is definitely our day...
-
Ferguson bowling with a bit of spark today. Satner bowling a good length and not giving any width.
Now Ferg gets another.

What a world we live in!
Federer can still beat Nadal.
The Black Caps can still give Oz a toweling.
Let alone Trumps, Brexits and Third World Wars ( I see two featured articles on stuff suggesting we're going there).
