Green over Lyon for Player of the match surely?

 

[dumb]

pretty amazing that hazlewood's average is about to dip below 25 despite some of the pus he served up in the ashes. keeps the results coming.

 

[Santana]

Well done boys, now finish the job in Christchurch

 

[BarryMorgan]

Is there anyone but Murphy even on the cards?

Personally want Freeman from Tassie to play just for the memes.

With no spinners setting the world alight in Shield cricket Lyon will get awfully close to Warnes 708. Take 4 more years give or take which would take him to 40.

There's approximately 33 tests after this series up to the end of the away Ashes in mid 2027 & I reckon he'll play until at least then...So he could get close.

Well done Aussies!

Green kept us in it with Hazey first innings.

Lyon great bowling today.

 

[Crankyhawk]

Almost certain you can’t before lunch

It’s over now anyway

huh? they took the extra 30 and moved lunch when Green and Haze were batting day 2

Lock it in Eddie

They should do what they did with Warne. Pluck a young one out of no where and just play them.

Wasn’t that an extended session? Still one of the weird rules, just get 90 overs each day it’s not hard

Tanveer Sangha imo

 

[Stax on the mill]

At least we have have beaten Australia's 2nd innings score.

NZ moral victors?

 

[Jim Prideaux]

some 17-2 pro boxer thats likely a trash can and will be knocked out inside 2 lol

I mean, it’ll be more fixed than a Russian election, but I hold out hope old mate will go off script

 

[Joffaboy]

That was a really lame finish to a test match, very poor from NZ.

They really bottled it this morning. Ravindra needs rooting for his pathetic out. End opened and the Kiwi's caved in.

No, they extended because of 9 wickets down & they would of done the same today.

Good call haven’t seen a lot of him though? Does he actually turn it though?

Sorry I thought your original point was that they don't move lunch when a team is 9 for; so was giving example of when they did. THe session didn't start early.

Big win but did paper over some cracks.

 

[demondavey]

We have a strage setup in the team currently. Best off spinner in the world, three great quicks and two genuine all rounders in Green and Marsh.

I wouldn’t call that strange.

Agree.

Boring and non competitive. Really want to see the opposite from NZ but this series looks like it’ll be a whitewash. If NZ want to be taken seriously they need to do the basics a lot better.

Has all year. Our bowlers have saved our batsmen a lot of the last 12 months

Head/Carey narrowly miss out on joint MOTM
