Cricket: NZ vs Aus
-
Interesting build up in Oz for this series.
Two big spreads in the Sunday Tele and multimedia is pumping out the message to the public they don’t realise how good this Kiwi team is unless you start crunching numbers.
Usually not many Aussies care about how the Black Caps are performing unless they play Australia so they are oblivious of some of the marvellous wins we have conjured up in the last three years and their circumstances.
It’s a very tough ask playing pink ball at Perth’s new stadium as the surface will be a bit of an unknown beast and especially with Oz having played their last test under lights and no warm up game for the Good Guys.
Not too concerned with injuries as they’ll only play Trent if they reckon he’s got enough overs in him and why not debut your most exciting new young bowler to Test Cricket in Perth in a very new stadium! Rossco and CdG will fine!!
Not making any predictions until after the first session once I’ve seen the pitch and got the vibe.
This is the big one guys beating Oz in Oz and we have a squad with genuine depth and three (3) tests to do it in.
And the betting odds are so much better than the AB’s 🤓 -
Latest is the Lockie starts and Boult is out all tom

Filled with hope and expectation, only to have the ghosts of past oz campaign's stampede my new found admiration.I've got low to no expectations. Hardly anyone wins test series in Aus. 4 in the last 10 years

They'll win this test for sure.
Then it's us trying to get a result on a Melbourne pitch that could be anything, given they are on a last warning for being too boring. Or Sydney without a decent spinner
What's worse is fucking David Warner will probably top score this series.

Replying to myself, but that streak from teh Windies in 93/94 to SA in 08/09 is ridiculous. Ridiculous.

The numbers on the backs of shirts look shit.
They're black. Surely that counts for something?

less than 130km an hour isn't going to cut it in Aus

Not even an hour in and Oz at $1.20 to win. Us at $7.40 - with a draw also at $7.40.
That's saying the Oz quicks will be effective where our boys won't be - plus Lyons will get to bowl on the final day pitch if required.
That draw money might be worth a sniff with the heat likely to take its toll on the bowlers.

Colin!! What a legend that man is
