2nd Test: New Zealand v Australia at Christchurch on Feb 20-24, 2016

[Pete Cash]

Both Burns and Smith would have done better to just try and hit them for six lol

 

[WaznTheGreat]

lol send out Lyon to protect the dud Marsh

 

[Meapro Ham]

Night watchman at 4/357. lol pretty soft by Marsh there

 

[Hutty1986]

A night watchman for a bloke who's barely a test standard batsman? Wow.

 

[WaznTheGreat]

NZ can still win this,batting last is never easy

 

[hineyrulz]

NZ still may get a lead yet.

 

[Hutty1986]

Voges really needs to hog the strike here. Lyon will glove one eventually.

 

[The Charlatan]

Booooooo-urns.

 

[Meapro Ham]

Lyon is probably a better 6 than Marsh anyway. Probably a good call by the skipper.

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Nevill is just as shit as Marsh as a batsmen

 

[tomdl]

The night watchman is a better bat than the guy he is protecting

 

[Meapro Ham]

Lyon to score a ton. I'm calling it now.

 

[jargan83]

Lyon > Marsh

 

[Pete Cash]

I think Boof asked Lyon if he wanted Marsh to go out as his nightwatchman lol

Well survived lyon. Shame to lose a couple of wickets at the end to tired shots but we are in a great position.

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Dion Nash would have rattled these Aussie muppets

 

[Hutty1986]

Well done Nath. Need solid runs from Voges & Marsh tomorrow. Those two late wickets changed the game's complexion.

 

[Pete Cash]

We are still in a pretty good position tbh even with the lost wickets. NZ doesnt have a slow bowler and I cant imagine that there is going to be a lot of juice in the pitch on day 4 and 5. I think there is at minimum 100-150 runs from the rest of the batsmen. That would be a decent enough lead.

I would say we are in front...pretty comfortably. Obviously a massive first session from NZ could change that but we are sitting pretty good.

 

[hineyrulz]

The GOAT does the job yet again.

Time for Darsh to stand up tomorrow and get us a 150+ run lead.

 

[chigurh]

Good patient, luck free day of batting from Smith and Burns. We know Smith is a freak but that was promising stuff from Burns.

 

[Meapro Ham]

Those two late wickets changed the game's complexion.

Slightly. But not much. They still only took 3 wickets for the whole day. if they don't get Voges early tomorrow it will be another big lead for the Aussies.
