Its pretty odd that the kiwis are trolling here. This is the first game we have lost at home since nov of last year and we are seriously weakened in pace bowlers. We easily won the series without mitchell starc the worlds premier odi fast bowler. Lets see how the kiwis would go without boult and southee lol
I know I was commenting on Australian fielding standards declining last year when you thrashing the West Indies in tests.
We would miss Boult and Southee in the field, possibly the best opening bowling partnership fielders ever to play test or ODI cricket. Whether on the boundary, Southee at third slip, Boult at gully or point. Boult is a freak in the field. He can put Maxwell to shame, he is that good.
But, in case you havn't noticed, Southee has not been playing for NZ of late, and Boult's replacements in Henry, Milne and McClenahan have been outperforming him. Boult has not looked good with the ball since he was injured in England last year. In that time Sri Lanka was thrashed in ODI and T20, and Pakistan soundly beaten to lose the T20 series.
