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

[Athlai]

Blair Tickner died for this

Tickner sucks

 

[Flem274*]

Was here??!!
Probably bcos Young is from CD.

If Smithy got Young picked then he needs to barrack even harder for those outside the ND-Canterbury axis of evil.

Doug Bracewell doesn't provide the 140kph feels but he's a better bowling allrounder than SK. He'd have been vicious on this deck.

Jfc I get home, finally able to watch and Phillips gets out first ball I see. Then now we have the awful guy with the crowd interview and I can't deal with the cringe it's just embarrassing fmd

 

[straw man]

Tickner sucks

I know

 

[morgieb]

Man that was a strange innings. Australia run through the top order before NZ go full BazBall with some success. Will be interesting to see how Australia handle the last half an hour, that said they’re so far ahead that it probably doesn’t matter.

Tickner sucks

But only at international cricket.

Higher bowling ceiling too.

I mean I think pretty much all those top order wickets were down to NZ being still mentally a bit fried after the first session more than anything to do with the bowling or the pitch.

Just hope Lyons average come down in late 20's.

If it's the same guy on Kayo I think he's cool. Such a friendly NZ stereotype dude

 

[TheJediBrah]

Lyon 4/43 lmao

flattered massively by those figures

NZ is just mentally fried against Australia, always.

Sure, man for man Australia is better, but not this much.

 

[HeathDavisSpeed]

Heef tells me most of the jeering at SK has been coming from him

Tbf, I missed his innings as I’d gone to play some cricket for a while rather than watch that shower stink up the place.

 

[Silver Silva]

NZ have a 5 run lead over Cameron Green

 

[Bahnz]

Smudge is cooked

 

[anonymouskefe]

Much needed luck for southee that

Suck it up, buttercup. You've got three more days of this to endure.

Edit: LOL

 

[Spark]

Loose

 

[kyear2]

Fell asleep at lunch, just woke up and literally missed the entire NZ innings, wtf.

 

[Spark]

Like yes opening isn't that different etc etc but really, why even play at that?

 

[King Kane]

Finally Southee does something useful in this test by dismissing Smith.
