*Official* New Zealand in Australia 2019/20

[Burgey]

I really thought better of NZ than this. They're awful.

 

[Flem274*]

well he could have fired jason roy in the wc final when it was crashing into leg then

 

[stephen]

You can see why travail
Raval reviewed that. Only the faintest of touches that.

we told you so before the series

this is actually worse than 2015 tbf which i hold up as the depths of pure trash in australia

 

[Hicheal Michael]

Bit rough to not at least retain a review if hotspot doesn't show anything?

 

[Meridio]

Gonna save my review rant until after this is finished but obviously we're not an awful side, though we have played terribly. One bad series doesn't undo a couple of years of good performance. That's what makes it that much more disappointing, we're a much better team than what we've shown.

 

[straw man]

looks like this series is saving its best (shittest) for last

Australia lost a review for the Santner review in Melbourne. The "retain a review" rule doesn't apply to caught reviews. Which is problematic but hard to really quantify what the boundaries are.

I didn't.

 

[Daemon]

I thought we'd get away without having to go through another David Warner hundred celebration

I know nothing will top that WI tour of Australia but NZ and Pakistan have certainly come close.

 

[stephen]

Dar now joining the gunning party.

 

[stephen]

Good decision that.

NZ in tatters.

 

[morgieb]

So much for the "batsman always know when they've hit it" meme.

 

[Meridio]

I can't wait until the next lbw decision where the batsman edges it but doesn't review, and the commentators all pipe up with "you know when you've hit it".

 

[Gnske]

So much for the "batsman always know when they've hit it" meme.

If you're Jeet Raval its usually safe to assume you've missed it.

 

[Hicheal Michael]

Didn't Craig McMillan also score a 50 and a duck on test debut vs Australia?

 

[The Hutt Rec]

This 12 day bender is ending on a real downer.

It'll be like this* next summer too. And the one after that. And at Lord's for the test championship final.
















*warm with a bit of high cloud.

 

[Moss]

Well, thank God this will be over soon.

Taylor's last test innings in Australia? Would be nice if he ciuld sign off with good knock, but probably more fitting if it ends with a 20-odd cameo

 

[Meridio]

Taylor's going to give a cbf heave in a minute.
