Cricket: NZ vs Aus

[mariner4life]

I know I'm a massive Hazelwood fanboy but

He's actually a huge loss because, even though he's a massive threat himself, the fact he also is very hard to score off opens up starc and Cummins.

Those 2 and Lyon can still absolutely blast us out because they are amazing bowlers, but their task got a lot harder

@junior indeed!

Starc has been so dangerous tonight. Great performance

[No Quarter]

Kane really didn't need to play that. Such a disappointing way to get out after he and Ross had really steadied the ship with some quite brilliant test match batting. Grrr.

[NTA]

Williamson seems like a lovely bloke, however: suck on that.

Great grab and the predilection for that guided shot through slips is his undoing

[mariner4life]

Yeah there is no way Starc should have played in England over Peter Siddle...

[KiwiMurph]

@mariner4life sick jinx

Yep, seemed a bit of a nothing shot in the end.

[Donsteppa]

Insipid - now Nicholls throws it away down leg side.

[No Quarter]

Yep another extremely soft dismissal with just 5 or so overs to go.

2 down going into tomorrow and we can punish them in the heat. 4 down and Aus are feeling an awful lot better about things.

[junior]

Jesus that hurts - we’ll looking at 5 down before the end of the day now, FFS

[Donsteppa]

Oh FFS.

Picked it like a dirty nose

[KiwiMurph]

This is the Black Caps I remember. Like a comfy pair of slippers.

[junior]

We need something Dravid-like by Watling

[Donsteppa]

Poor batting from the top order except Taylor, and a poor decision to send Wagner in.

[No Quarter]

So annoying. We'd really fought back against the odds and were looking like we could make them pay tomorrow.

Now it's just about game set and match at the end of the second day.

[No Quarter]

Cricket trash talk is so shit.

I really don't know why they bother. Compare MJ getting in someone's head all game and dominating them, to Paine spouting shit like " just get 1 and we'll get 3 lads" which adds no value or pressure

Note, Paine isn't a scapegoat here. All modern cricket keeper chat is average.

Well it turns out he was right...
