**Official** New Zealand in Australia 2015

[Burgey]

They're bowling pretty well to Williamson.

Yeah, they've got to mind you. Such a good player.

 

[Flem274*]

australia have definitely missed a bowling partnership like this which doesn't look flashy but tests williamson and latham 6 out of 6.

This is what people thought about the white one at first too. As long as it actually holds up, which I have my doubts about, you'll get used to how it looks.

not whinging just observing. i really want day night to work.

 

[Zinzan]

Yep, Aust bowling excellent areas here.

 

[Cabinet96]

Good from Latham. The batsmen need to remember that these two are the pressure builders. Scoring will be much easier when Starc comes back or Mitch Marsh come son.

 

[NZTailender]

Too much angle

 

[Flem274*]

i think ian chappell and mark nicholas were more nervous about latham's blocking than latham

ooh god not keen on that

 

[NZTailender]

I sometimes wonder if they forced Latham into whatever regime Kane does we'd have the best 2-3 in the world

 

[Cabinet96]

Getting bogged down is only really a problem if you think it's a problem. I was kind of worried he would though.

 

[hendrix]

Lyon is bowling superbly. Would've had a couple of wickets were it not for the fact our two calmest batsmen were batting.

Latham's problem is not lack of singles or boundaries.

It's that his technique deteriorates after about 80 odd deliveries andhe starts creeping / falling over to the off side. It makes him susceptible to both lbw and pushing outside his off stump as he's not properly balanced.

latham strikes me as a bubble batsman more than a McCullum or Taylor.

 

[NZTailender]

Can't tell if commentary is just taking the piss or have they forgotten Lehmann was a decent part timer

Yeah I wanted to scream this at Chappell so much.

Yeah but if you're getting out a lot in the 20s and 30s it can be in the back of your mind.

 

[hendrix]

So imo to fix Latham's problem he needs to increase his fitness.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

First memorabilia ad of the summer lads.

Took their time.

a piece of MJ's shirt? meh.

a piece of MJ's mo? Now we're talking.

 

[Zinzan]

Can't tell if commentary is just taking the piss or have they forgotten Lehmann was a decent part timer

The former, I'm sure. Then again it's Brayshocker we're talking about

 

[Spark]

Ah, class bowling.

 

[Burgey]

What a great nut.

 

[adub]

ooh bit outside the line?

 

[NZTailender]

Well there's a turn up for the books.
