*Official* New Zealand in Australia 2019/20

Hoo hoo. Bring on Smith vs Wagner then

 

[cnerd123]

Caught by CDG at short fine leg off a short ball from Wagner

Can't think of a more troll wicket than that

 

[thierry henry]

lol you gotta love it but that’s such bad cricket.

 

[thierry henry]

Ball was barely thigh height, not sure if it was even short really

 

[straw man]

Thanks for that, Warner.

Would be nice if we could get two wickets in a row for a change.

 

[thierry henry]

hmmm actually the shortest ball of the 3 but bounced lowest. Who needs to hit the top of off when you can exploit the variable bounce a foot outside leg

did labuschagne score runs in the holy trial game before the ashes?

 

[_Ed_]

Hmm, Astle again. I feel like we've built up a nice little bit of pressure, but it might be about to be released.

Top scored in the first innings.

Might have made a good 40 odd in the first dig.

 

[_Ed_]

That actually wasn't too bad. Better than Santner, tbf.

 

[Hicheal Michael]

This was the tour for Mark Craig. The pitches have done more than in 2015 and the other bowlers haven't bowled complete shite. He was on a hiding to nothing really looking back.

 

[Gnske]

Thank god TJB isn't here to remind us that this bowling is utterly skill-less

 

[Alex0paul]

Any chance of a run?

 

[cnerd123]

loving this passage of play. 38 balls and 43 minutes without a run for Smith lol

 

[Gnske]

That was an ovation close to Ajit Agarkar's

 

[OverratedSanity]

If it was any other batsman in the world you'd think he was struggling. Smithis probably going to tire Wagner out by deadbatting everything and then score 200 off the others when nz get bored

Has missed out on a couple of absolute gifts from Astle though

The last time he played here for NSW he took a similarly long time to get going and hit a ton.

the obvious thing to do here is to respect neil wagner and refuse to play wagnerball as much as you can before pulverising the others
