Cricket: NZ vs Aus

[Damo]

CDG is the man for the occasion.

Be good to see him score a swashbuckling century and have Aussie batting before lunch tomorrow under pressure.

I'm watching Smithy on a pisstake show called The Professors Night Watchman. And he's killing it. Just a genuine, funny bloke.

Saw that too. Best thing that’s happened on this tour...

[KiwiMurph]

When do some questions start getting asked about Peter Fulton as a batting coach?

[Donsteppa]

Who'd have thought it'd be mainly our senior batsmen who'd be so collectively poor this entire series...

[Donsteppa]

CdG: another Black Caps batting clown. FFS!!!

[Chris B.]

FFS Colin!!!

[Damo]

Geeze. He was looking comfortable too.

[KiwiMurph]

There probably was 2 there if Colin wasn't Michael Collins between the wickets...

[Chris B.]

Yeah - though with a direct hit and he would have been metres out.

Just gifting them his wicket, though, when we're fighting for credibility!

These fuckers have been carrying on like that all series

[Chris B.]

@canefan I'm giving the batsmen a bit of benefit of the doubt, that this bowling has probably been relentlessly the best they've ever seen. But, there have been some soft dismissals and that was probably the softest.

Pattinson oversteps and Phillips has at least his third life.

[Godder]

200 up (200/6).

[Godder]

Second session has just finished, off to tea at 210/6.

[taniwharugby]

@Godder got them right where we want them!

[Godder]

@taniwharugby Lulled them right into a false sense of security!

[Damo]

Change of strategy.

Eek out another 100 runs in this session. Then roll Aussie for 150 before tea tomorrow. Knock off the 300 required with big centuries to the openers.

The path to victory is clear enough.

Good debut by Phillips!!

[Godder]

50 and out on debut for Phillips.

Good result on paper but sounds like he spent a series worth of luck in one innings
