The FINAL, Australia v New Zealand (THE BATTLE OF THE MITCHELLS) at the Ring of Fire, Dubai-- 11/14 Sunday (N)

[Pup Clarke]

Shaheen was swinging it miles, I wonder why isn't Starc getting that kind of swing? Maybe just a temporary phase before he bowls those booming inswingers again.

Because he's an average bowler. Like really average. Has a great day out 1 in 10 but otherwise he's totally ordinary

 

[thundaboult]

come on glenn p...

 

[straw man]

It was necessary Doull. He was 28 off 34 and we had 9 wickets in hand.

Also hitting sixes off spin is what Guptill does. Just didn't get it well enough.

 

[Moss]

I thought Guptill got that well enough. Damn. Long boundary.

Six at Eden Park (sorry)

 

[SteveNZ]

It was necessary Doull. He was 28 off 34 and we had 9 wickets in hand.

Oath it was. Zampa drifted leg side, Gup on another day gets it 5m further.

 

[Spark]

in tests i can sort of see this but in limited overs this is just rank nonsense

 

[Mike5181]

Shaun Pollock looks exactly the same as when he retired.

 

[SteveNZ]

See also Starc’s last over. Catch taken, different game

Oh no doubt, he takes that we're buried. Gup completely out of touch, Phillips the same and Seifert having no game time

 

[Kirkut]

Nah, he's world class. Not too long ago he was getting plenty of wickets vs NZ and Pakistan, he'll be back soon.

 

[SteveNZ]

Then Kane couldn't have hit that 6. Oh my word I love you Kane

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Oh wow Kane

 

[SteveNZ]

I LOVE YOU KANE

 

[Pup Clarke]

in tests i can sort of see this but in limited overs this is just rank nonsense

I respect that and yeah he's had great success swinging the new ball and being a major part in tournament wins, but he just looks pretty shot as a bowler now. If he doesn't get that swing he looks incredibly hittable in whatever format imo

 

[Burgey]

Haze you spud. This is on you

 

[Moss]

Super from Kane, turned it around after the powerplay. That’s how you deal with the support bowling.

 

[Pup Clarke]

Shot. Shot!

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Yes Kaneo.

 

[thundaboult]

VITAL, VITAL from THE MAN

 

[straw man]

Niiiiice.

Was a real tempter to give Maxwell this over. Could've bought wicket but instead those 6s very helpful.

 

[The Hutt Rec]

Kane turning the titanic that is this innings!
