Nice, Allen.

Provides exactly what no-one else in the top 3 has been.

Weaker spot will be just short of a length vs Hazelwood (esp if tries to manufacture a pull shot), but will be fun while he lasts.

Been advocating Allen over Guptill but it's still an unfamiliar feeling not to see Guppy opening.

You love to see it. NZ doing something they've been completely unable to do in other recent matches and especially vs Australia - put them under pressure.

And then you see the other team make mistakes.

I know it's a meme word around here but the intent to disrupt Australia's length is something Gup rarely does. And the singles.

Conway's charge and drive past mid off was the best shot. Really smart batting
