The FINAL, Australia v New Zealand (THE BATTLE OF THE MITCHELLS) at the Ring of Fire, Dubai-- 11/14 Sunday (N)

[Kirkut]

NZ need 190 here to stand a chance. Otherwise, congratulations Australia!

 

[thundaboult]

this is NOT the halfway point situation you want to be in...

 

[loterry1994]

Really is time to hit out or get out for NZ now.

 

[Kirkut]

Didn’t know this was a Test Match

I won't complain, always have time for classic cricket.

 

[The Hutt Rec]

I feel the same about Finn Allen, just think he'd have been invaluable in situations like this (and the semi) to get some early impetus ... or if he didn't, at least get out quickly.

I wonder if Guptill will make it to the next T20 World Cup.

 

[Burgey]

Something’s gotta give here surely

 

[straw man]

Interestingly NZ were 58/2 after 10 overs vs England. Just relying on a repeat from Neesham later in the innings .

 

[Kirkut]

KW's game is similar to Babar Azam's. Just learn to live with it.

 

[Spark]

what was that

 

[straw man]

That running animation made me think one batsman was going for the second and the other not there.

Oooh dropped.

 

[The Hutt Rec]

Sitter ... bad sign for Australia?

 

[Burgey]

That’s a sitter

 

[Aritro]

That overhead running b/w the wickets graphic is mesmerising. Like something from a Super Nintendo game.

Ooft, that's the break they needed.

 

[Kirkut]

Not necessarily the drop that would cost the world cup.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

You just dropped the World Cup Josh

 

[SteveNZ]

Thanks Mitchy Starc. What a pie thrower he now is

 

[straw man]

This helps a lot.

 

[Spark]

thanks starc for throwing away a good half hour's worth of excellent bowling in three balls

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Cataclysmic

 

[Pup Clarke]

Lol Starc. Easily the most overrated bowler in world cricket
