Black Caps v Australia
-
not only do we suck again, it's starting to de-legitimise that test championship. Aus didn't make the final thanks to a slow over rate penalty, and during the "league stage" they absolutely belted us. I totally get why they scoff at that win.

It's ours and they can't take it away. But make no mistake, if we faced them in the final instead of India, we would have got pumped

Well, it is easy to be awesome bowlers if you never get puffed. Get those over-rates up to the minimum, cheaters.

Henry getting it to seam a mile like Hazlewood. Should be an interesting battle.

Why bring Southee back when you've just had a drinks break and Henry & Sears are bowling well
Better ask the skipper 😀

Pales in comparison with England robbing us of an ODI World Cup.
As @rapido says - run in faster you lazy fucks.

Not sure which annoys me more. The Southee medium paced floaty half volley that gets driven for 4 or the medium paced long hop that gets pulled for 4.
Henry is mirroring Anderson nicely - used to be good only with the new ball but can deliver for the whole innings as he has got older.

Henry being the best bowler and Southee and Kuggs being ordinary was 100% to script.
It’s funny how things change, only a couple of years back Henry was firmly 5th choice if that.
I’m thrilled the young fella Sears got such an important wicket first up but the jury is still out obviously.
Speaking of the jury being out is it too unfair to be disappointed in Ravindra at test level overall ? I only heard it on the radio but sounds like it was an appalling piece of cricket. So much hinges on how he goes second time round.
