Possibly. Must admit, even though the side it stacked with all-rounders all the way down Franklin at 5 is a bit thin for my liking.

Shame Ryder is injured, seriously good cricketer.
Don't reckon Ryder would've looked any more comfortable than the others tbh, NZ Batsmen simply aren't used to facing relentless pace like this, doubt many sides are... In Tait 150-160, Nannes 145-150 & Johnson 145-150 (with the possibility of Lee coming back), how many attack have EVER had that depth of pace?

Windies in the 80's you'd imagine would have had that consistency of pace between all their quicks but can't ever really think of anything else.

Tbh reckon only Ingram has looked significantly at sea though.

Worth putting $10 on the Aussies to win the T20 World Cup I reckon with this attack + potentially Lee.

Smith is unbelievable on the boundary.

Edit: The player, not the commentator.

I've never been been more happier to see an NZ wicket fall... **** off Hopkins.
Haha, not a fan of Hopkins at all, but dude, 21 off 13 balls striking at 162 in the context of NZ's innings....tad harsh perhaps?

Yeah, shouldn't be in the team, but have to give him credit for playing pretty well.

Magnificent catch that, anyone else get the feeling Aust will knock off the 120-130 within 10 overs?
