Aye, I like Smith for t20s just because he has that factor like Maxwell of being able to score runs all around the ground against spin and pace.
I get that and you're right but, right now, who do you drop? Lynn the only vulnerable one. Or drop a bowler and hope Stoinis doesn't get pumped (not optimistic).

Even then, that's just a player-for-player basis. If the team as a whole is already moving on and they're winning, hard to just include him.

A bit less ND captaincy perhaps. Need some Otago or Canterbury players in the team - a bit more street smart. Shame Wheeler didn't follow big brother Joe to Dunedin - great place to learn. This side missed Anaru K's bowling tonight

Think this line-up is probably the first Oz has ever selected without an eye to the Test side too. A real T20 side. Now they look a threat.

Bowling isn't very good tbf.

Starc coming back would help loads obviously.

Firstly, well done Australia. They've appointed good coaches have a great domestic league and are now a gun side. Short Warner Maxwell Finch Stoinis Lynn is a crazy top 6 on their day.

But FMD we should've won that game. So many points to criticise with the ball. Execution was abysmal, Sodhi apart, bowling Wheeler past 2 was brainless and Munro should've bowled. Not saying he would've bowled well but he had to have a roll, when Maxwell first came in.

And the decision not to play Santner looks silly too.

That was a belting of major proportions

Auckland is a fun ground but you can't expect it to work in the home team advantage every time

Santner had a niggle didn’t he?
