Australia tour of New Zealand 2010

Lol omg, McCullum was streaky the ball before and then the next ball the same happens but it hits the stumps. Just the wicket we needed, now we need to stall the NZ innings like they did to us.

Ah, big blow for NZ there. I hope NZ win this one. They have had a good start and now have to carry it through.

How did our lower order batsmen go?

280 odd is never an easy chase, but in a great batting track we should be able to challenge it.
Key men are Guptill and Taylor now, even though there is depth to our batting line-up, six and below are all really yet to perform consistently at the international level.

How did our lower order batsmen go?

Average, didn't really get a kick on towards the end. Hussey was good as usual just couldn't stay in and kick on and Hopes stayed in their to prevent the collapse but didn't kick on.

Johnson tonked, Hussey was epic, Hopes was solid but too slow.

 

[piriyanth]

Johnson's actually being economical.

Lol Blewett just called Watson medium pace, he'll need to have a word with him as bowling 140km/h is not medium pace!

It is just because he bowls next to guys like Harris and Johnson. Watson is not touching 140km/h today. His average speed is been around 135 today.

Well he is bowling 130ish at the moment... No spin in the whole game yet.

Must be the pitch, no way is this Johnson.

Dammit Watson you are meant to be proving me right!

Ah finally a break through, NZ innings seems to be heading the same way as ours but they have the advantage of knowing what they need.

Hmm, where's Vettori?
