Reckon Katich should have gone as soon as it had passed Vettori. Was never going to stop Hayden from taking it on.

Can't really blame him though. Have run out the non-striker like that myself. They waited for it to pass the bowler then didn't make it to the other end.

Katich 60%
Hayden 40%

You would hope so but vettori for some unknown reason doesn't like to bowl him.

redmond or Taylor? Im not really sure how good Redmonds bowling is.

mate katich is one of the worst runners between the wickets, it's unreal how many times i've seen him have to dive

however, he had no hope in hell of making that run, typical 'me first' haydos attitude

 

[Athlai]

He's okay. Nothing special.

O'Brien and Vettori to take a bag full.

Ugh flagging already.. Sooo cold in front of the TV

 

[Zinzan]

Vettori looking the most dangerous already. I wonder if Redmond will bowl a few leg spinners and maybe Taylor with a few off spinners.

Actually not the worst idea. Really wished we had played Patel now of course, our seamers don't even look close to getting a wicket

Your dream XI made me throw up in my mouth a little.

well that came from nowhere, must be the first one that spun, and in it goes to jesse's bellybutton

 

[Athlai]

Top openers.

Vettttttoriiiiiii

Redmond, haven't seen much of him either but he did pick up a bag of wickets for NZ A in India.

 

[Athlai]

NZ first innings lead of 50 runs, you heard it here first.

Lol, just noticed your dream XI as well, Redmond & Harris ?

 

[Athlai]

At this stage

NZ 45/0
Aus 49/2

 

[Zinzan]

Ohhh, O'Brien, absolute meat & drink that for Ponting

 

[Zinzan]

At this stage

NZ 45/0
Aus 49/2

Utterly irrelevant statistic in the context IMO, I'd still put money on Aussie getting 500 from here

 

[Langeveldt]

Haha, did anyone see Ryder's celebration then?! Started running down the wicket looking for someone to high five and ended up in a little area on his own while everyone was down the other end celebrating

 

[GGG]

Good stuff, Give Redmond a bowl now, just a over or 2 before lunch, the seamer's ain't doing much

Same but optimism.
