Black Caps v Australia

[Bovidae]

Sears is trying too hard and losing his line.

[Donsteppa]

ABS - anyone but Southee.

[KiwiMurph]

Class from Carey.

The difference is Blundell has offered nothing with the bat

[Donsteppa]

I should probably check his stats, but Blundell does feel like a modern day Matthew Sinclair. Either scores big or does little.

in fairness, Carey hadn't either until today.

[Donsteppa]

Can't say I was a big fan of Wags's bowling over the last year, but to think he was missing out to Timmy and Scott...

[KiwiMurph]

I can't see an argument for a better player in world cricket than Pat Cummins

Best bowler in the world
Good tactical captain
Very useful bat who delivers in the clutch.

[Donsteppa]

Sumo: "He's desperate to get Carey on strike!"

... if he really was and was worried about the ton, he'd just block the over out...

[MN5]

Ah well, we dared to dream…..

[1kiwi]

Goes back to the fact that NZ were 60-70 runs short

[mariner4life]

Cummins is a shitcunt confirmed

[bayimports]

or didn't take catches

[Bovidae]

Time for a refresh, starting with the coach and captain.

He’s no all rounder but by crikey he delivers when they need him.

when are we even back in white?

Pretty sure for Aussie this is their last test until hosting India next summer

[Donsteppa]

At this rate, our generation will be in the proverbial rocking chairs talking about 1993 and Rutherford and Blain taking us home...

[NTA]

Never in doubt.

[Cyclops]

Brutal. No luck for us today, so many half chances and missed edges. But also only had 3 bowlers that were actually looking threatening (and one of those a part timer) limited us as did straying down leg to Carey in particular.

[Windows97]

Cummin's with 32 - sheesh...

A pretty weak performance from our bowling stock, Henry couldn't repeast his heroics of the first innings and catch's win matches comes to haunt us.

You and your false modesty can just take a hike pal.
