Just seen a few minutes of Chris Martin "highlights" on youtube. WTF is wrong with him? Like seriously, does he have eyesight problems? Grade cricketers would do better. I don't understand how anyone coordinated enough to make it to test cricket can be that bad at batting.

Plenty have been bad, the difference is all of them bar Martin have improved over time.

Spin went from being a weakness in the Australian attack to their strength.

Not a indicator of the quality of Lyon (though he is impressing)

More an indication of how craptacular the rest of our bowlers are.

Please be injury free for the next test Cummins and Harris! PLEASE!

I thought Martin actually did have some eye problem that explained his ineptitude.

A young Glenn McGrath was pretty terrible

Southee gets Warner before lunch. I dont lose any faith on Warner developing into a decent test cricketer. A great deck to bowl with the new ball, although you may not of thought so after watching us bowl yesterday.

NZ 295 vs AUS 1/3

Warner played it poorly but it was a fair ball first up IMO. Was hoping to see him go well.
