***Official*** Australia vs New Zealand ODIs 2016/17

[Spark]

Haze is having quite a summer

 

[Starfighter]

Not a great shot that one.

 

[jonbrooks]

Great, both Clarke and Slater just put the massive mockers on Williamson.

 

[honestbharani]

Already thinking that if NZ win this game they can put a big down part of down to straight luck

And Australia shouldn't, if they win?

Just goes to show you don't need to be super quick to be effective. Line, length and subtle variation is more valuable IMO.

 

[CM Punk]

Commentators always talk about Kane's technique, how about less technique and more runs Kane.

All the technique in the world and you still nick off like a spud.

 

[jonbrooks]

If Guppy gets out I'm going to bed.

Indeed. I think Williamson's been a bit short of runs recently.

 

[Moss]

Neesham at 4? ITSTL

 

[CM Punk]

Definitely losing this by 100+ runs and deservedly so... bowled and fielded worse than a club side.

 

[mr_mister]

Is Neesham really an international number 4?

he's bowling 140s tbf

that would be quicker than most

 

[honestbharani]

That Smith knock was awesome though, so was Wade's. You can actually see how nervous and diffident NZ side had become after that assault. Its amazing how good Smith and Kohli are as well, given they have such tight bottom handed grips. Its not so amazing that they are very good at LO cricket but surely their test success must surprise many pundits.

His quickest deliveries are, right? Most of his deliveries are mid 130s.

 

[straw man]

Is Neesham really an international number 4?

No. Surprised that Smith didn't give Starc one more over to try to take his wicket.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Would've made a lot of sense to send in Watling now, although I guess they're preserving the left\right hand combo

 

[TheJediBrah]

His quickest deliveries are, right? Most of his deliveries are mid 130s.

Even then, it's not exactly like he's bowling a whole lot slower than most international bowlers, if at all

 

[Moss]

Great from Haze, but Kane should be cross with himself necause seeing off the new ball was pretty much the plan. They'd been risk free upto then.

Tbh that ball was pretty full. You go after those chasing 320.

Clarke is the best commentator now, no?
