*Official* Australia in New Zealand

I can't believe I ate the whole thing
Didn't want to really post anything in here when he was heading from 40 to 100 in case of a jinx, but wow, what an innings he's having! Even with chances, he's showing why he's our best batsman.

Edit: jinxed the other bloke :ph34r:

McCullum out for 5. Maybe that will bring to end talks of him being a specialist batsman.

I really really disagree with us having such a long tail. Patel should never be batting at 8.

This could be over in another hour.

Taylor has to play his shots.

The rest of the batting explains Taylor's innings really. Shocking shot from McCullum, feet were going no where.

Some of the NZ batsmen really need to learn to rotate the strike. Goes without saying but a bit of an odd game this.

Wonder if Australia could declare and lose, that would be pretty much the ideal.

I was hoping we would make 300 in our dig.

The fact that the team got my hopes up by dismissing Aussie for 231 was just toying with my emotions.

Taylor, what a legend . On days like this when things go his way am happy to say "that's the way he plays". Besides, I doubt he'll ever score chanceless big runs.

Patel to show more application with the bat than most of our top order.
