***Official*** Australia in New Zealand 2016

[Spark]

bit of a struggle, that knock. still not convinced at all about this technique, hasn't seemed to free him up through the offside at all.

I didn't rate Mitchell Marsh with the bat at first. Thought he looked very uncoordinated. But man does he hit it hard. Hits it as clean as Guptill. Well he's going to win this game soon if we don't get him.

Australia's middle order batting has been the difference IMO . First ODI NZ knocked the top of and kept on getting wickets.In Wellington top knocked off cheap but , Aussies middle and lower order gets them over the line and will probably do so here. Blackcaops middle order is a steaming pile of goat poo. Not performing at all after Guppy and Macca get em off to a great start Nichols , Anderson and Ronchi falling cheap today as well; I miss Taylor.

 

[Gnske]

Its scooping time

 

[Burgey]

close the ****ing gate george

or never own an animal

Pretty well bowled. I thought he was looking to guide it to third man but it jagged on him.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

a lot of similarities between marsh and guptill in terms of batting tbh

Nah mate its all BMac's fault #jonsooks

This is a poor bowling change. Really bad.

identical to the kane dismissal

 

[hendrix]

hmmm, sodhi off? left hander i guess?

 

[Burgey]

Certainly taking the pace off seems to be doing the trick. Was the Bailey wicket a slower off cutter? Seemed to go like one.

 

[hendrix]

think Sodhi can actually be pretty good to the left hander so yeah, a little confusing.

 

[Burgey]

Wade will chip Elliott to short cover.

 

[Flem274*]

yeah id rather bait wade to go aerial with sodhi. taking the pace off is the right move but marsh should be way too good for elliott in this situation

 

[Bahnz]

I mean, if his plan is to try saving Sodhi for the tailenders, then that's one thing, but Elliot on this surface is just a gift 6+ runs.

 

[hendrix]

I think I'd give Corey another go. get in that jammy strike rate.

Fairly sure it was a standard pace delivery, just decked back a bit.

 

[Bahnz]

Nah that's pitched miles outside leg.

 

[hendrix]

Fairly sure it was a standard pace delivery, just decked back a bit.

reckon Milne may get a bit of reverse if it goes that far.

 

[Flem274*]

need to go for the jugular here instead of trying to sneak one end of part timers through
