Final - New Zealand v Australia (29th March)

[Athlai]

Yeah as I said a couple of pages ago, when he starts hitting the quicks to cover it means he's in, even if they're dots. He's officially in.

Yeah no doubt he's in, but he is also looking to attack instead of accumulate. He's made a decision to go after them here.

I don't find Taylor poor against spin tbh.

He's poor against spin early; good when set. He probably qualifies as set now though.

 

[vandem]

**** shot though. why would you sweep on that line

Would have to be unlucky to be out lbw. Initial line was outside off. Elliott got down the pitch and the middle of the front pad was outside the line. If you miss and ball hits middle - outside of the pad you're not out, hit outside the line. If you miss and ball hits middle - inside of the pad you're in danger but probably not out, spin will take it past leg stump.

Is Maxy a better spinner than he's given credit for?

[eroticfishcake]

pretty random six

 

[Zinzan]

From a NZ fans POV, I've seen some fine ODI bowlers over the years from Glenn McGrath to Wasim Akram to Brett Lee to Shane Warne & none have quite freaked me out quite the way Starc is atm.

Is that the first 6 off Starc in the tournament?

 

[viriya]

Top-edged sixes shouldn't make NZ feel that good - you know Warner and Finch are gonna do the same those hacks.

Fractionally, yes.
