***Official*** Australia in New Zealand 2016

I missed that, did he categorically say that or just imply it?

Nup 100% claimed it lol

I'll reserve judgement until I see how he goes in SL/India. Been a while since he's played there.

Who is this joke of a commentator calling Lyon a better off-spinner than Ashwin? I know all NZ commentators are piss-poor, but this is the height of being piss-poor.

He's not wrong, Ashwin ****s himself whenever he sees a pitch that doesn't smell like the subcontinent.

A total hackfraud.

 

[hendrix]

probably in Aus and NZ Lyon is actually better than Ashwin.

He clearly said that...it was something like "Here comes Nathan Lyon - the best off-spinner in the world. I know Ashwin may disagree with me, but Lyon is the best off-spinner for me any day or any night."

He is, outside India. Lyon is the WPNCOS.

I would say it's an accurate statement if confined to these sorts of conditions.

How are we still referring to Watling as a "handy batsman" in this team?

I heard Williamson is a decent middle order bat as well.

If Lyon is better bowler than Ashwin, then Dhawan (take any one among Shikhar, Rishi and Varun ) is a better batsman than Warner

I mean come on, there is a limit to stupidity

looks like cricketweb ended up trolling itself. it truly is a green monster

Now you're just being silly

 

[weldone]

Bet both of you don't know who Varun Dhawan is.

thank you

 

[ajdude]

Bet both of you don't know who Varun Dhawan is.

i don't really care

You make points?

 

[ajdude]

wait why did you say congratulations when you could've said weldone? that would've been ace.

anyway decentish session. bird is no longer going at 20 an over which can be seen as an improvement

I wouldn't call it that. There's certainly some assistance for the bowlers and Hazelwood has bowled very well, but I've seen batsmen survive on pitches far more bowler friendly than this.
