4th Chappell/Hadlee Trophy Match :: AUS v NZ @ Adelaide

[KeepingTheFaith]

250 won't be enough. I'm concerned about our bowling options. 4 specialist bowlers and Elliot. Taylor can bowl a bit, not so sure about the rest. We're a bowler/all rounder short imo.

I can`t believe Guptill is unable to get the balls off his stumps away to the legside for a single. No timing at all, insists on playing dead straight. Useless.

0/38 off 11.5

Please Guptil get out ASAP, before it`s too late.

 

[attila_the_gorilla]

Is this another verry slow pitch or are we just so crap????

Great to hear that match fees, shirts etc are being donated for fundraising for the bush fires

Exactly. Not to mention that the Commonwealth Bank on top of the $1 million they've already chipped in will also chip in $100 for every run scored and $5000 for every 6 that is hit.

Hes out now, but TBH for all the balls hes wasted you would have wanted him to make up for it which he looked to be doing.

And this pitch is a ripper just tight bowling and no aggression from NZ.

Am glad you don't pick the side, it is his 6th game FFS, has some good performances under his belt, and you brand him "useless"

sounds like 9 are delaying it in Perth

I have no idea why we decided to bat first, we have absolutely no idea how to set a total and haven't for at least 5 years now. Not only that, it's the Adelaide Oval with short square boundaries making it a chasers paradise.

yeh that would be right, typical nien,

whats the score?

 

[attila_the_gorilla]

Fulton has proven many times he`s hopeless. What a poor batsman, and he can`t even field.

I don`t mind Guptill, but he played awful. Had to take advantage of the early powerplay overs. If he can`t, he should stick to tests.

2/85 off 22.3

 

[attila_the_gorilla]

McCullum also playing with no intent. Well-deserved dismissal.

 

[aussies1st]

Kiwis are falling apart, McCullum out now.

 

[Tom Shines]

Clarkey deceived him with the straighter one?

 

[African Monkey]

Where's Cumming gonna bat ? Ridiculous choice playing him if he's not in the top order. Now we're just throwing our wickets away.
