20th Match, Pool A - New Zealand v Australia - NEW ZEALAND WON BY 1 WICKET

[Iafeta]

This partnership is quite annoying TBH.

piss poor shot selection

I can't remember a worse innings as far as shot selection goes. Lazy, loose and just generally stupid. As always, Wazn starts the show.

 

[Aragorn]

Is it the pitch or is it good bowling ny NZ?

hardly the pitch if Aus were 68/1 after 10....

 

[Bazal]

:lol: Blame Clarke for the side batting like planks. I've heard some stupid shit, but that's just about the dumbest....this is a pathetic team effort, and apart from one knock Bailey has been in poor form and is a poor skipper. But no, it's Clarke's fault he's a better batsman and captain, he's clearly orchestrated it that way :lol:

 

[umina panther]

Haddin showing he's still the best option. f**k the haters what a champ.

 

[umina panther]

Shot!

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Ian Smith just said Aussie batsmen got themselves out and NZ really didn't bowl any great balls

Haynetrain + Ian Smith 1
Other Kiwis 0

 

[Rocky_Da_Rooster]

Well, the run rate is still good. Need to play out only 20 overs.

Agree, it's as dumb as saying it's all Watson fault (he is shit mind). It's deflection.

Haddin showing he's still the best option. f**k the haters what a champ.

Agreed. The guy is a legend.

Perhaps there is a correlation between shot selection and the teams' desire to have Clarke back.

 

[Aragorn]

this last wicket stand is slowly digging the aussies out of a historic embarrassment

 

[Aragorn]

its like watching test cricket now...

 

[WaznTheGreat]

These 45 metre boundaries are too big for our Aussie team,lets play at Gilroy,the boundaries are about 15 metres there.

 

[shiznit]

And CA want the Windies in the Boxing Day tests??

Perhaps there is a correlation between shot selection and the teams' desire to have Clarke back.

Perhaps Tony Abbott's lizard powers have affected them

Perhaps they're all hungover

Perhaps Boult is secretly a wizard

Perhaps Australia have been the subject of a gypsy curse.

Perhaps they are all from Krypton and the ball is actually Kryponite

Or maybe, just maybe, they've been fooled by the conditions, tried to score a billion runs and forgotten they still have to play cricket against a very good side. Occam's Razor

 

[Aragorn]

dam i love bruce springsteen.

 

[shiznit]

I bet you Anderson the rubbish tin-arse gets the breakthrough...

He's so shit

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Cricket Australia deserve this thrashing for not scheduling the Boxing Day Test against the Kiwis

 

[Aragorn]

He's so shit

[shiznit]

And there you go... :lol:
