2nd Test: New Zealand v Australia @ Hagley Oval Christchurch Mar 8-12, 2024

[This Year?]

Would have been nice to get a triple digit lead but Henry was having none of that.
Great stuff from Henry, but with most Aussie batters getting starts shows there's a concentration issue there.

Matt Henry, awesome effort

 

[edabomb]

By my math we have a 10 run lead here factoring in the Kuggeleijn handicap.

 

[Meth]

This is basically game 1

 

[Chins get the wins]

Hopefully we get to bat again

nice shape on that one. Completely bamboozled him.

 

[Raiders_Premiers]

Aww Uts Kane Bredmunsun!

 

[JJ]

Feel for Young, he’s not usually above 4, on this wicket against this attack he’s fought hard but found wanting

 

[This Year?]

Tito time!

 

[Meth]

Hopefully we get to bat again

We should scrape together just enough runs for Smith's wicket (100 odd, lead of 20)

That runout was the epitome of #dragonsfooty

or there is still a bit in the pitch, Hinry has bowled well

Poor Smith waiting to bat...

 

[JJ]

Ugh, poor shot from Williamson, just the one sloppy one these bastards need

 

[hineyrulz]

Seriously f**k off Shark Tale.

 

[JJ]

Hopefully we can bat well tomorrow, that lapse from Williamson will disappoint him…. Aust well in front, but we have a small hope, good day for us overall

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Its still pretty even.

I wouldn't be confident chasing much more than 200 given our entire batting order seems out of form. NZ have plenty of work to do to get to that sort of lead, but one good partnership could see them in the driver's seat.

If it does end 1-1 result here would mean only one series win in our last 5. Surely serious questions would need to be asked about some of the senior players positions.

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Captain Cumshot!

That was needed, NZ were looking sharp.
