*Official* Australia in New Zealand

[Zinzan]

^ Indeed

This game is slipping away from New Zealand now, they need at least 4 wickets in this next session as chasing any above 250 against this Australian attack will be too many

 

[Bort]

It is 100% Watson's fault he is out.

2 days and 2 sessions to go. Nothing wrong with how Kat is batting at all.

Not at present but now he's gotten a start with plenty of time left, its incumbent upon him to kick-on. Not North, Hussey or Haddin, him. He's there and well-established, some pay-off would go a long to insulating against a collapse.

KATMAN GOING CRAAAAAAAAAZY!

Keep going crab.

Kat past 50, next batters on alert, we are at DEFCHOKECON 3.

Vettori to Katich, 2 runs, pitching outside off, Katich paddle sweeps fine of long for two. Inventive stroke

 

[Zinzan]

Game racing away from NZ. Picking Australia to get into a position where they can declare 4-5 down & then to go on to win by 150+ runs

 

[SilentOne]

Skippy bowling now we must be in trouble...

 

[_Ed_]

Good lord.

Why not at least someone who's taken a Test wicket before, like Guptill?

 

[slugger]

there is always the first time...

 

[_Ed_]

But it didn't seem to be this time.

 

[slugger]

why does this happen to nz.... why ... why ... why cant we just capitalize for once on a good first inn.

The Aussie batsmen handed their wickets to us on a plate in the first innings to be fair, we just don't have the penetration to bowl them out on a half decent wicket if they bat reasonably well.

 

[Nate]

Haha, love TC.

 

[Jono]

Soul destroying for NZ

My money looks safe though

 

[Jono]

ooooohh Katman

 

[AlanJLegend]

Katich FTMFW!

He just keeps getting better,

 

[Top_Cat]

Haha, great knock in the end but geez he did his best to chuck it.
