Final - New Zealand v Australia (29th March)

[Athlai]

Guptill is going to throw his hands at something here.

 

[cpr]

the coverage leads me to believe nz batsmen have no strong zones and all suck.

Yeah they've just used the same graphic to show both Guptil and KW's weak spot against pace. Who'd have thought it'd actually coincide with a pace bowlers sweet spot....

 

[Spikey]

Yeah, he did. It's a complete myth that Starc sucked before Warne spouted his crap and became an ODI beast afterwards. It's textbook post hoc ergo propter hoc​.

Mr High Brow here going with the latin reference and not the simpsons reference

 

[Swingpanzee]

Good bumper first up.

NZ not showing enough intent, should look to play to #losetowin

 

[Burgey]

Man Starc has just stepped it up a notch even for his standards. Possibly something to do with Warne's comments?


(lel)

Yes, I think Warnie needs to take a lot of credit. What do you guys think?

 

[jonbrooks]

FFS put the speeds up.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Baz today:

He fell on his ****ing arse

 

[Cabinet96]

Quick reminder that before the Ashes last year Mitchell Johnson's international career was probably 90% average days.

 

[Zinzan]

Williamson is batting like poop right now, but NZ can't afford for him to fall apart like Kohli did in the semi-final. Needs to stick it out.

It's tough tough conditions our there tbf.

Pitches are not prepared by Oz its by ICC

I knew that was the case after the pitch prepared for the Aus vs India semi-final.

No point, I can't out-Simpsons Spikey.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Ross should probably start leaving the pavillion in anticipation of the next wicket. #MCGsobig

They were more or less bad days tbf.

 

[Flem274*]

is that red ribbon on guptill's sleeve for crowe?

 

[jonbrooks]

Both Kane and Guppy are REALLY struggling :-( Despite Guppy's recent excellent forms this bowling is at another level.

 

[Cabinet96]

better ratio in ODers imo

Yeah fair. I don't use average to mean bad though, ftr, at least not in this context.

No point, I can't out-Simpsons Spikey.

This might be me on Facebook after this match though:
