2nd T20I: New Zealand v Australia at Christchurch, Feb 28 2010

[byrne_rovelli_fan82]

I'll give you Healy and Taylor, but Lawry hates anyone not born in Mexico and Nicholas could bore for his country (whatever that is).

Nicholas very pro Aussie as well, fair enough at times but he over does it too often. The rest of the nine commentary team aren't bad though, can get annoying at times.

Tait shows how weak he is between the ears. Great game awesome chase by our boys. White is outstanding. Really missed Watson but great learning for WC.

If we ever get in that position again. We now know who not to give the ball to

shame there isnt a 3rd game to decide the series

White for captain and Clarke into Twenty20 retirement. Clarke has the worst strike rate of any Australian (10 games or more) apart from Bracken. Needing 2+ runs per ball Clarke is always good for a single leaving others under pressure to hit boundairies every ball. Can't afford to carry him (or Birt or Christian) into a World Cup.

Did someone knock your bridge down? Clarke struck at 150 today, Birt and Christian are better prospects and younger than Dave Hussey and that fat sack Hodge....basically what I'm saying is that you're a tool.

:lol: Gotta love the Clarke hate, played a top innings today almost got us over the line.

 

[aussies1st]

Clarke showed he can play the T20 knock required so no complaints from me. Some not so good death bowling, poor super over all round, McCullum and Southee brilliance cost us.

 

[kia ora storm]

McCullum murdered Oz with the shots over the keeper and in the fine leg region yet Clarke did not move his fielders to stop this...

On ya Kiwis...

 

[Timmah]

:lol: @ those suggesting the Aussie commentators are Aussie-biased.

Did anyone watch last summer v South Africa? :lol:

Does anybody actually read their comments????

 

[Fast Eddie]

Does anyone know if Tait is in any sh*t for giving McCullum the finger?

 

[aussies1st]

Probably will find out tomorrow, I would say he is.

What about that summer?

That South Africa were awesome and far superior to Australia in every facet? Aside from attrition of course.

 

[eddiesmith]

Does anyone know why the hell they would send Haddin out for the super over?

 

[ozbash]

shame there isnt a 3rd game to decide the series

good idea.

maybe... you have to remember that your batsmen only scored 6... left Tait in a huge hole

to be honest, I don't see what's wrong with a tie, but the fans went home happy

 

[Big Pete]

Yep.

I question the mental capacity of all the players we picked for those final few overs.

I'd hate to trust anything of mine on the likes of Warner, Haddin, White and Tait.

With that said, Southee did bowl pretty well in that death over. Tait on the other hand just flat out sucked. Two wides and no yorkers really exposed Tait for mine.
