Kuggelejeijn getting 6 overs in the first innings. What a pointless selection. This team is absolutely rudderless.
The radio commentators mentioned him being there as ‘batting insurance’
…..apparently he barely made it out to the middle in time and copped some sledging from Australia before being out first ball.

The bowling average gap between Henry and Southee is now down to 2 runs (having been 11 at start of season).
Southee's career average will almost inevitably tick over 30 next innings. It is currently 29.98
It’s 29.59
But your point is pertinent

As shit as our batting has been this series theirs has not been a lot better. Well it has been better than ours but it’s not like they have scored 400 -500.
Henry has been really impressive just as Ferguson was in the T20sAus batting has been shit all season. We are making them look better than Pak and Windies did. But they are coming to the end of their own era/cycle, and their batting stocks are poor.

I haven't watched any of the series since day 1, until a little bit this arvo.
I've watched a lot of England recently. It's such a contrast watching Aus bowl so well to their fields and nz digging their hole waiting to slowly die. Compared to the proactiveness of 'bazball' and watching plans being succesfully or attempted to be disrupted

First chance I've been able to sit down and watch for a length of time. I was watching 2 batsmen working really hard to survive the new ball against skilful bowling in order to lay a foundation for when the pitch gets easier. With so much time left it is all about not getting out. See if these 2 can get to day 3 and then try to bat all day.

50 up for KW.
He’ll get 100 now
What a rookie move. You know what to do
He’d made 50 and we all know what his conversion rate has been lately. I thought it was a pretty safe prediction.
I’m very disappointed in myself
