20th Match - New Zealand v Australia

[Dan]

Reckon 500 is on the cards after that, did you know the boundaries are small?

Can so see Johnson making 30-odd by bombing ****s over long on though. If he survives a couple of overs, that is.

Australia have shown inadequate intent here. Their middle order should've chosen to score 160 in 60 balls.

imagine if we get 150 v 150

 

[Pratters]

Is there a possibility Australia won't reach the quarters? Say they lose to one of the minnows.

this is possibly the most knee-jerk post of all time

I'm really annoyed with the selectors for batting Maxwell, Marsh and Haddin in that order when we were 4 out. It just wasn't the right option at all.

Yea good call.. You never want Maxwell/Marsh in before the 30th over. Haddin probably should've come in.

the irritating thing is that we still haven't seen the fourth bowler. literally all we had to do was bat normally for a while and we'd have 20 of 30 overs of not-southee/boult/vettori to face but y'know, that'd take brains

Lol that would require losses to both the minnows. Won't happen, we can still do something imo.

They did split points with Bangladesh.. if SL beat Aus? Highly unlikely of course.

Went from thinking they'll get 500 to thinking they won't make the quarters. 100 to 0 real quick.

 

[Pratters]

hey pratters

I did say if Boult doesn't get a few.

 

[NZTailender]

Most dangerous partnership batsmen at the crease now imo

 

[Spikey]
