Black Caps v Australia

@Canes4life said in Black Caps v Australia:
It's very overcast and cold here in Welly today. The fans at the Basin better take blankets for atleast the morning session. Definitely need to bowl if we win the toss.
so a typical Wellington summers day then.
-
Raining here now so expect delays to start the day.

Cummins complaining about the wind. Mate, it's a light breeze atm.
-
Why didn't we go Wagner over SK?
-
Bowling first is probably the right decision, but if we dont pick up 3 or 4 wickets in the first session we could be out there a long time.
-
That cant have been easy for Wags to go through, great to see him leave the field after the anthems giving the playing 11 thumbs up, giving them encouragement.
-
We are banking on early wickets bowling first or we will get behind the 8 ball very quickly having to bat last.
Comon lads! Knock em over!
-
That last ball swung in and then seamed out. Unplayable.
-
Smith has a unique batting style doesnt he.
Squares up, walks across the crease/stumps -
Getting plenty of movement, often too much to get close to the edge.
