1st Test New Zealand v Australia Feb 29-Mar 4 0830hrs @ the Basin Reserve

[Jim Prideaux]

Looking at the SA scorecard, I find it odd that NZ didn’t think the pitch would spin - but clearly they didn’t.

'If you just take out all of the opposition's best performances there's not much between the sides.'

thanks for the second (and late) correction

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Plenty of heat from Green.

140ks

Kinda amazing that there's been Green knockers on here, the guy has serious gifts with both bat & ball.

His ability to extract extra bounce really excites me.

 

[k31th]

yin/yang with Henry... a dodgy looking inside edge that barely clears the bails... then a nice back-foot punch through the covers for 4.

Whilst there have been some unfair knocks on green, this really has been a break out game for him. I hope it continues, and I think it will, but let’s not rewrite history.

LOL the commentators talking up Mitchell protecting the tail. The only way to protect the NZ tail is to declare on 0.

Means fk all when they’ve been destroyed. Commentators have been pulling $hit out of their arses this entire Test.

 

[Santana]

No matter the outcome this has been another pretty average performance

 

[Plugger35]

Henry one of our best batsmen again, still a glimmer of hope with him and Mitchell there.

perfect timing

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Catching practice.

 

[k31th]

beautiful catch Smithy so casual, but coming so quickly off the edge of a flashing bat, at your head like that, is always tricky

 

[Westend]

lol well done Josh

I take it back Pat hahahah

 

[Plugger35]

FFS I jinxed him.

Time for a captain's knock from Southee now.
