**Official** New Zealand in Australia

But they have Mark Nicholas.

Griegy is as close as we get to an away commentator.

I'd like to have a kiwi in the box for this series though.

 

[Sylvester]

I always wonder, why do they never have 'away' commentators on the Aussie coverage? I much prefer it when you have a couple from the opposition team like there usually is on Sky.

They use to get some NZ commentators and pretty sure they got a few English and Indian ones when they come over.

 

[Somerset]

Gee that short cover position filled by Peter Fulton has worked a treat hasn't it!

Tony Grieg switches sides depending on who is winning, tbh.
He's all over the show. One day he is a South African, the next he's Australian, sometimes he's even English.

O'Brilllllllliant!
(remember who came up with that name!!)

It would be better, you'd get a more balanced view. They just go on and on about how wonderful the Aussies are. And sound really shocked when there's a wicket!

Not this week

Ian Smith tends to be our representative in England and Australia, am not 100% sure why hes not there this tour - might have something to do with Sky NZ requiring him to commentate the domestic Twenty20 games in New Zealand.

This chase could get very tricky, need a big knock from Punter today.

 

[Briony]

Holding usually comes across when we play the Windies.

 

[Mixmasterreece]

**** O'Brilliant comes through with break through wickets when we need him.

Still backing Aussie to pull through with a couple of overs to spare.

When they win on Friday expect a memorabilia piece to come out quick smart

I feel the Kee Wees are favourites tonight, it will be a very stifling and runs will be very hard to come by, especially given bowling by Clarke today.

Weather will probably be a telling factor and also that last 20-30 runs scored by Taylor and the Tayle.

 

[Mixmasterreece]

plumb!!!!

and now vetorri is off the field injured.

[KiWiNiNjA]

Sheez, we needed that one to be given.

Luck not going our way, definitely missed the edge.

 

[TT Boy]

Ponting seems to be immune from LBW.

Hotspot indicated to me that the ball just hit outside the line, I think thats a very good call from Davis. First replay I'd have given it out too, but after seeing hotspot I changed my mind.

And I sure hope that Vettori hasn't done anything serious, especially with so few back-up bowling options today playing the extra batsman.

 

[TT Boy]

Shot from the captain.

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

Ponting gone!
I thought that Ponting would punish us after that questionable LBW but.....

NZ really need another 2 quick wickets to make a game of it, one feels.

 

[Raghav]

I O Brien needs to produce a beauty now... to get a quick wicket that can put pressure
