***Official*** Trans-Tasman Twenty20 Tri-Series

[Moss]

Oh my this is unravelling quickly.

 

[ajdude]

**** man, imagine the conversations between Warner and Lehmann on the flight to South Africa.

 

[Flem274*]

richardson is getting lippier and lippier as the years go by. he wouldn't have dared take that poke at hesson five years ago.

another one bites the dust. Too much ND trash in this team. it can only play on anti-cricket pitches in Hamilton using cheap dirty darters in at the legs to win.

 

[Burgey]

Would’ve been all out 20 at #mcgsobig

 

[Ghost]

Yup, in 10 T20s so far this year they have 2 hundreds and 7 fifties between. Everyone else one 1fifty between them

 

[Athlai]

T20 batsman in NZ = Guptill and Munro

 

[Flem274*]

hey we'll get to see boult bat which is good

 

[Flem274*]

especially since southee is a terrible cricketer

 

[CM Punk]

We didn't deserve to win anyway, would have felt weird to win 2 games and win the series.

Aus have been impressive throughout, it would have been an injustice for the best side by a big stretch to not win it.

 

[Moss]

Don't mind the decision to bat first, what they've served up is pure horse manure.

 

[Days of Grace]

Have NZ actually won a final or knockout match against Australia ever? Probably not since we won one final in 1980/81.

Must have a horrendous record. I blame the underarm/Sneddon incident.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

I know the Volts are trash, but this side needs Broom and Kitchen. At least we'd get some decent puns

 

[CM Punk]

Meh, we aren't winning anything with this team. None of them are capable of handling pressure, let alone thrive with it on.

The last player we had who could do that was Elliott.

 

[Daemon]

This is quite reminiscent of the last finals played between these two teams.

Twickenham 2015.

 

[Flem274*]

NZ have always meekly surrendered to Australia at the slightest hint of a big game, evidently even in something as dumb as this. It's what NZ do.

Fans settle for meaningless Chappell-Hadlee series victories and whining about sledging to soothe the wounds of abject surrender in tests and world cup finals too easily, even on this forum.

 

[Ghost]

Guptill/Munro. They’ve only scored 49.44 percent of our T20 runs so far in 2018

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Need some Nicholls - might shovel it but seems pretty good under pressure

 

[CM Punk]

Should Taylor go for it or should he play it safe and get us to 140-150?

 

[vcs]

NZ always fold against Australia come the big games.....*






* except for the ones they don't fold in, e.g. Champions Trophy 2017, WT20 2016 etc. But only the 2015 WC final matters for pushing this narrative, so carry on.
