When there is a crisis, you can always rely on royalty!

JJ must be having a heart attack right about now.

NZ have gift wrapped three-wickets for Australia.

Merry Christmas.

What an inept batting side.

You going to give Haurie some credit?

You going to give Haurie some credit?

I will.

Very well done Nathan Hauritz for actually getting two wickets which weren't from a waist high full toss.

 

[Tommy Smith]

You going to give Haurie some credit?

For what?

Bowling pies and inducing incredibly stupid shots from two batsmen who gave their wickets away like its backyard cricket?

inept is being kind... seriously, how bad have the three dismissals been?

Hauritz is an embarrassment, topped only by the NZ top order

Perhaps it's a symptom of NZ not playing much test cricket these days?

These fellas don't seem to value their wicket. They seem to think that you need to take uneccessary risks in order to score as opposed to milking that donkey Hauritz for singles and taking advantages of the really bad balls when they come along by whacking them either a) along the ground or b) to open spaces.

McCullum is NZs most experienced player in the batting order and he sets the tone for this pathetic maverick attitude towards batting.

i do ... the way he let redmond eat up some valuable runs to boost his average was sporting

To be honest I am tired of making and hearing excuses for them - they've had plenty of test cricket this year, and apart from Taylor's century against England the bats have shown nothing, no discipline, no intelligence, and Flynn apart no guts

And if Sth Africa don't score heavily against this attack, they should be ashamed too

This is our 12th test this year

Agree x 1,000,000

You going to give Haurie some credit?

not against New Zealand, no.

Any joe schmoe can pick up a Test wicket, the schizophrenic selectors' problem is that they aren't giving the post-Warne spinners the chance to prove themselves in at least more than 3 Tests. Well they gave White a chance but he can't spin the ball, so he doesn't count as a spinner. Medium-pacer more like.

What happened to the sound from the pitch?

 

[byrne_rovelli_fan82]

[byrne_rovelli_fan82]

Now it's Baz's turn

 

[byrne_rovelli_fan82]

Oops my bad it's actually Flynn!! LOL TOo excited there

 

[Collingwood Storm]

anyone here the commentary between Tony Greig and Mark Taylor just before?

 

[hineyrulz]

Sounds like a belter of a wicket, and sounds like the Kiwi Batsman have given out 4 early Christmas presents.

 

[Meth]

I'd like to see how this bowling attack would go against a decent batting team like Bangladesh or Kenya

 

[Iafeta]

Koertzen should retire. He is a joke.

 

[African Monkey]

Yeah sh*t decision.
