Good signs from Boult - assuming the swing occurs at some stage

You're not even trying anymore mate, lift your game.

yeah, his attempts at humour are showing the same commitment as Southee's attempts at batting

Gee Boult is a shadow of the bowler he was this time last year.

 

[JJ]

Khawaja needs that anal probe, something's building here

 

[Pete Cash]

I dont know why everyone is so down on these teams. I think they have heaps of talent. Yeah there are a few dummies out there but good times to be had for both these sides.

Trying for what? we have been bowled out for less than 200 in 3 of the past 4 ODI's in NZ and in the other one we were 6/180,if Mark Craig didn't drop that catch we would have been bowled out for less than 200 once again.

back injuries can do that, hoping he can get the mojo back

This is true but I think your post should be moved to the troll dump thread regardless unless Dick French is the mystery moderator.

They're very evenly matched - the series in Aust was competitive - Brisbane aside, and I expect this one will be

Neither are perfect, but both pretty decent

wish we could convince Guptill of that

Shame, hopefully he can find it just after the second test ;-)


Nothing better then watching a quality swing bowler at work, and when he's fully fit that thats what he is.

If you saw those spells against Sangakarra last year, you'll know he can be (or was) very special...

Craig's on fire! :sarcasm:

Australia haven't won in India in like over a decade and in England in over a decade,please don't use the word talent to desricibe these no hopers.

 

[JJ]

awww Smiffy - that's out, surely

 

[ANTiLAG]

Smith's wicket does not dispute Pete's theory...

Interesting.

Craig is still -10 runs.

Needs a second inngs score.

 

[chigurh]

There it is. So so dumb

 

[JJ]

What a twat, standing there for that

 

[Pete Cash]

Bad luck that....

Terrific catch
