***Official*** New Zealand in Australia 2011

[straw man]

All the sauces say Young is the best pure keeper in the country.

i hear mustard disagrees

 

[Zinzan]

Let's gift Michael Clarke another couple of chances eh, make sure he gets to 150 at least

 

[Athlai]

Dougeh didn't bowl well against Zim till he rolled them at the end too.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Please never bowl another short ball again, Doug.

Except, of course, for Mccullum. It's a tough one I suppose.

 

[Flem274*]

Trent Boult was sitting on the boundary with a magnet imo.

 

[morgieb]

Gut feel is that Haddin will score big here, but that wicket brings New Zealand back in the game.

Also, Clarke doesn't look as good now as he did, whereas Bracewell.....

Yeah. Overall I prefer McCullum opening to keeping, since we have very very few opening options.

You've said that every time a new Aussie batsman comes in mate.

Amazed they're not 650/2 yet.

 

[Athlai]

1 more boys and we're well into the tail.

Morgie thinks an Aussie bat will score runs, shocker.

 

[NZTailender]

Gonna flip flop. Bracewell deserves another test, sounds on song.

 

[Ruckus]

You can't call it tail when someone with a big heart like Siddle comes in.

 

[Athlai]

You can't call it tail when someone with a big heart like Siddle comes in.

Whoops didn't realise Haddin was already in. We're in the tail already.

(face)

Siddle will rip his heart out, lob it up and smash it for six first ball.

 

[Bahnz]

Yeah me too, but moments like that really make me wish he could somehow do both.

 

[Athlai]

Too big to hit it over the rope.

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

What's got into Dougeh?
Bowling a Southee like spell now.

 

[Zinzan]

Will Australia put on their mandatory 200+ runs for the last 5 wickets against NZ?
