Australia tour of New Zealand 2010

[Iridium]

I reckon we might see a sporting declaration from Ponting ala this last Boxing day Test, maybe when North reaches his 100?

Id back Aus to bundle NZ out for 240 odd.

Knowing NZs troubles in the first innings of a Test, I'd say 240 would be nice. Wouldn't be a shock to see them all out for 150-180.

Ok someone has flicked Clarke's aggressive streak again, hes come out very positive after lunch.

Steve Smith just died a little inside, but well done Marcus.

Ok you got the 100 North, now can we move on with the match.

 

[aussie1st]

Well played North did it under pressure with no Shield form to speak of. Now keep them coming so that I'm not calling for the axe.

Damn, I keep forgetting to bet some vCash! I would've put plenty on Australia winning this game. I'll just have to do it in the next Test.

 

[pcfan123]

Bet on England then, theres even odds for best batsman, that match starts in 2 hours.

North gunned it, and awesome declaration, I'll be able to see Harris.

 

[McLOVIN]

(over) confident much? should have batted longer. 500+

 

[aussie1st]

Conditions have gone slightly overcast so perfect time to declare and give Harris his debut spell.

 

[shravi]

Hoping for a Taylor masterclass. Love watching him bat. Knowing him though, he'll throw it away when he's on on 60, trying to slog sweep Hauritz.

I was just thinking to myself that BJ Watling's going to gun it. Heh.

 

[aussie1st]

Ah good to see Rug swinging the ball and his pace is back to where it usually is. Last ball 148km/h! Still pitching it a bit short but that ball to get Walting was a beauty.

Why is it called a dead ball?

Why is it called a dead ball?

Because it came off his body and he wasn't taking evasive action.
