You forgot that great Aussie band out of Auckland (I think that's in Queensland) - Supergroove.

Yes, I did. Apologies.

 

[Bazal]

Yes.

Crowded House were 2/3 Aussie in their 'classic' era. 1/2, then back to 2/3, when they were big in the UK.

Split Enz...

Headless Chickens...

Dragon...

The Naked and Famous...

Mutton Birds...

Liam Finn...

Cut Off Your Hands...

Bic Runga...

Noiseworks...

Mi-Sex...

Kimbra...

Ladyhawke...

Lorde...

OMC...

The Swingers...

All great 'Aussie' bands or artists I've listened to a couple of times. ;-)


Electric Hippies were Aussies. Ha.

This list also needs more Shihad.

There we go, Munro beats the 15.5 overs/unders and then goes next ball. Lol.

 

[Bazal]

Meanwhile Munro gives the slips some practice. But he did make it more than 15 balls.

What kinda shot was that??

It was listed in an earlier post. I neglected to pop in to mine. Again, apologies.

It's been good bowling aside from opening with the part timer. Good plans.

How the hell did they play in the day of the sight screen?

Rolled side to side. LOL. Remember when the crowd in cheap seats would get up and move side to side when they moved the sight screen? And groundskeepers sat against the fence, when there were no ropes, and had a durry while waiting to move it again.

I first joined as a WACA member in 2006 and I’d go for the seats next the sight screen as it was as close to being behind the bowlers arm as possible. Great seats!

You just knew not to move when the bowling was from your end of the ground.

The smart money is on Pakistan. Still...risky, like a Bitcoin deal.

A shihad one

Pakistan prey on going against the smart money - intentionally or not.

I reckon probably the most impressive thing about NZ’s run in this tournament is that apart from the opening game we’ve started pretty much every game 2 wickets down with Kane and Rosco having to come in and rescue...

Impressive yes, but guaranteed to cost us when it matters most.

What a catch

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Ahhh so the Pakistan team that can catch has shown up today.

 

[typicalfan]

Great cricket by Pakistan. How are England feeling right now?

 

[Bazal]

Well that's concerning for NZ

 

[_snafu_]

What a catch

The Nugget would have caught that without diving.

 

[jargan83]

The Nugget would have caught that without diving.

Admiral Nugget would have glared at the ball and it would have deviated to him.

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

It's OK. Latham will stabilise with a measured 25 off 60 balls before De GrandPlod launches with 80 off 20 balls.
