Cricket: NZ vs Aus

[Hooroo]

Australian cricket really know how to do cricket on TV. Love the commentators, love the quick replays, and also love how they show what the ball has done

[voodoo]

Both Wagner and The Park Cricketer are just too wide right now.

[NTA]

Some nice shape by Wagner. He's not far away

11 overs in 40 degree heat. With three and a bit hours to go. it ain't all glamour at the top level

In front of 30 people.

Just like home 😉

[Siam]

It's Fucken India with an Aussie pitch. Hot as buggery and beat the infield and it's 4.

We're doing an amazing job of discipline and planning.

Defo deserve something here....but....Australia 🤔

Isn't this meant to be a 20 minute break?

Lunch breaks are always 40 minutes and the tea break is 20 minutes

I'm farking confused. It was a 40 minute break, but cricinfo had:
13.00 start, Tea 15.00-15.20, Dinner 17.20-18.00, Close 20.00

farked if I know. Need to knwo for the next couple of tests though

Oh yeah. It was 40 minutes wasn’t it. This is more of a day Twilight match rather than a day night match

who knows. 40 degrees, fark that.

The farkign aussie commentators are verbally fellating Aussie batsmen. Honestly, it's a giant circlejerk out there. FFS.

This surprises you?

[NTA]

So I guess on Sky you're getting the Fox Cricket crew including Warne, Gilchrist, Brett Lee etc.

On Channel Seven here domestically we've got Ricky Ponting, Brendan McCullum, Simon Katich, Glenn McGrath, Damien Fleming, Alison Mitchell, and a few others including Michael Slater ( ) and a couple of others on the side segments.

It can be a little dry, but at least its about the cricket and not where Warney got his teeth whitened after last night's pizza.

[voodoo]

I actually don't mind Warne. His cricketing brain is pretty wild. Watching some of those 20/20 games where he was miked up, he just sees stuff that others don't.

Who do I need to reverse jinx into taking three quick wickets?

Clearly not Tom Latham... damn.

[voodoo]

That was flying, but still. Fuck.

[MadGav]

That was our chance.

I’ve got a feeling we are going to get steamrolled, 4 40 degree days in a row.

[Paekakboyz]

@MadGav if we can blunt the opening attack and have some good partnerships its game on. No one is immune to 40 degree heat, it messes everyone up

[westcoastie]

Our boys need that next break. Starting to look tired.
Dropping Smith seems to have flattened them some.

Santner also bowling like shit at the minute, too short, too full, too legside-ish. If you're not turning it, keep it tight mate.

[westcoastie]

Raval bowling an over wtf.

You've got to catch those if you want to win. Hard enough getting Smith once!

Never quoted myself before, but...Smith just said this is an intentional tactic to frustrate Smith and keep him from playing anything towards leg.

Seems to be working in respect of the RR, but that one Lachie delivery aside , we havent really looked like getting him out .

And this dude has so much fcking patience.

[booboo]

Fuck this.

I'm off to bed.

I said "I'M OFF TO BED" ...
