Cricket: NZ vs Aus
-
Wags getting Warner and Smith is a big positive. He'll play the mind games with those two so great that he's got the upper hand early in the series.
That was a bad toss to lose though. 40 degree heat is going to sap anyone so the batting team always had an early advantage with that. We did OK in the end but I have Aus firmly ahead of the game at this stage.
Big question is how much of a road this pitch really is. Kane and Ross can handle the pace no problems so long as it's not moving off the pitch too much. Jeet won't last but Latham, Kane and Ross need to dig in to take this game deep and then see what happens with the pink ball.

@canefan No- I only heard the same thing as TeWaio - he's gone for an MRI scan.
The Aussie commentators were suggesting hopefully that maybe it might just be a cramp - but, that seems unlikely to me.
I'd imagine we won't see him bowling - my strap it up comment was tongue in cheek.

Southee's ball to get Wade made me do a sex wee in my jocks

Was amazeballs
Sounds like his second spell was a lot better than his first. Locky and Timmy didn't fill me with joy for the first few overs.

Bloody ockers have a special one in "loose bus change". Incredible innings and the partnership with Smith was enthralling test cricket.
Our tenacity, composure and discipline filled me with pride. No other team in the world could have stuck to it like we did in those batting conditions. Wags and Colin and latterly Timmy were top drawer and slinky performed a tough task admirably.
Honours close to even but Aus have runs on the board.
Comment from an Aussie today "we hammered you". "No, I thought we restricted you superbly". Yeah but you could've been hammered".
Jingoistic fucknuckles who know sod all are not solely the domain of All Black fans.Game on, advantage Australia, but some great kiwi attributes on display

No credit for it being a great delivery then Nick?Before I go any further: How hard do I need to suck his dick to make you happy? 🤔
More impressive was the short ball setup and realisation that Labuschagne was shuffling across too far.
The delivery itself was a stock ball at the top of leg stump with a hint of swing.
EDIT: you changed your post

Anyone got any stats on players to have three consecutive innings of 100+ could potentially be 3 150+ (hope i don't jinx him....) bloody marnus
Ohh no did I jinx him

They're Australians - they should be reveling in it.
Looks like the spirit of Burke and Wills is dead!
