*Official* Australia tour of New Zealand Feb-Mar 2024

[morgieb]

**** that’s a peach.

 

[anonymouskefe]

Thank **** Khawajas gone played and missed countless times

 

[Athlai]

I'm all for being cautious in the first day of a Test match but this is a bit extreme

First 40 overs in a NZ Test are easily the hardest by a million miles. Usually teams make hay in the 3rd session

Hopefully though Aussie just roll over now

Great pressure again, Usman was clamped on 33 for some time.

Can't recall (on paper at least) a less aggressive Top 4 for Australia.

In the last 30 years there's been at least a Warner/Ponting/M Waugh/Slater/Hayden that could dominate proceedings. Nothing in this top 4 suggests that.

 

[King Kane]

Another jaffa from Henry to knock over Khawaja's middle stump.

Some good pressure from our bowlers is getting the rewards now.

Hyper aggressive no 5 though

Super aggressive number 5 and 6 though

Yeah, when you allow the bowlers to dictate and settle into a rhythm you just make it harder for everyone. And eventually you still get a good one regardless.

 

[Spark]

Man this middle order has been shithouse this summer.

 

[ataraxia]

We might see a 123–5 rather than a 5–321!

 

[Athlai]

O'Rourke!

Well played!

 

[Bahnz]

Welcome to the basin chumps

 

[Alex0paul]

Australia players are undroppable at the moment. So many out of form yet no chance they call up someone else

 

[Flem274*]

***c stuff from the Cantabrians in the past few minutes.

Really shows the value of Smith and Khawaja.

 

[Starfighter]

All the early morning gambhiring looking a bit silly now.
