What a day for Wheeler. Gets hit for 14 runs off edges and a drop catch and basically proceeds to lose NZ the game with the ball. On track for the worst T20 figures.

Daryl Tuffey Eden Park 2005 all over again? I hope the guy recovers from this.

wheeler cracked but he had poor luck early on. the crime was bowling the wrong colin. CdG is a bit of a buffet in limited overs. Handy nibbler with a red ball (and destroyed pakistan in a test match lel) but always been expensive with a white ball.

this is a deck to try sneak through 100kph filth. colin munro should have bowled

Credit to Australia - shows what can happen when every single top 6 batsman is a match-winner.

As for NZ - catching, lack of second spinner, huge wides and no balls, not trying slow trash when 130-135 length bowling was not working, Wheeler's head explosion - take your pick.

Bad night for Kane. He does not seem to be a natural T20 player or T20 captain. Would love to play him at backgammon, doesn't seem to realise when he is behind and needs to take a risk.

Pace bowlers are being carted, he doesn't have the Santner option but he has Munro and Chapman who can take pace off the ball, but refuses to use them when he had a chance (probably 12th or 13th over instead of giving deG or Wheeler a 3rd), which commits Wheeler and deG to both bowling out.

Then he gambles again by giving Wheeler a 4th, rather than bowling out Boult and Southee by the end of the 18th to try to get wickets or push up the RRR.

i will laugh if chapman didn't get a trundle because he's a BATSMAN in larsens eyes

of course he's also a real part timer so that's probably the reason why lol

Thats a spanking. Fair go at Finch the finisher, what a weapon he is in this line-up.
