Yep it was clearly out. The kiwis bowling and the captaincy since the not out Has been nothing short of pathetic.

Bracewell finally on.

And gets the wicket. Great catch by the young bloke.

Absolutely awful captaincy. I have little doubt that if Bracewell was on right after the Lyon NO decision, NZ would have a first innings lead

I think the kiwis have the advantage. Starc is out and hes our best bowler. Lyon might be trouble but we have to bat last and only smith and nevill looked like they had a clue against the kiwi seamers. Its a great match though.

Awful decision from Llong, really bad. It was so clearly out. Not helped by NZ letting the game drift with the spinners on afterward. But changes the course of the game.

Glad to see Nevill with a strong knock. He's a quality player.

How we go a bowler down will be interesting.

Bracewell 3/18 off 12 but McCullum would rather bowl Craig (2/53 off 10)...no matter how bad Llong's decision was, McCullum's was worse.

Because clearly batting conservative ain't working for the clown...

Ian Smith still having a sook lol, no one told nice bloke Brendan to bowl 10 overs of Craig after the Lyon dismissal while the best bowler of the innings didn't get a bowl till we had scored another 100.

Brayshaw saying why can't Starc come out and just slog. Brave effort for him to do so but gee it's tough to basically call a bloke weak if he doesn't. God I hope someone someone kicks the stuffing out of him. Someone with "big levers" for extra lols

Aussies talking about it just as much.

I can understand mostly what mccullum is doing. He captains very much how he imagine things should go and gets caught up in the moment. Like he sometimes calls drs because it would be good if it was out rather than because it was out. I dont understand why he would bowl a spinner at a guy with a broken foot. Thats mostly what confused me

Warner getting a big wrap for tapping Guptill on the back between overs. Maturity would have been not throwing the ball at him needlessly in the first place

Its not so much should he have thrown it...it was unnecessary but no real malice. What i find funny is nine patting him on the back for acting like a decent human
