If McCullum has any brains he'll take Craig off, with no ability to pick up 2's and 3's you know Nev and Starc are just going to try and thump it now.

if santa can be good at tests immediately, short milne bursts at tailenders would make me happy.

and he could beat starc up with no risk of reprisal.

I think it would have been good for this game if Lyon had been given out like he should have been. Even with the lead I doubt NZ would have put up a substantial total. OZ may well have had a 250 - 280 chase for a win on the fourth day. Would have made for a fantastic game.

Instead now Australia have parity and with NZ brittle in the batting department we could be looking at a 150 chase for Oz. And Oz will not make the same mistakes twice.

How can a second innings shoot out be bad for the game?
