Cricket: NZ vs Aus

@No-Quarter Yeah that was a poor one - even though he just gets an umpire's call. Looked to be going down leg live.

Taylor about as useful Williamson this series, a terrible time for them both to have a very poor series
After both finishing not out 100 to finish the English series too. So fucking cruel to Black Caps fans.

Its not a shit call.
Its our batsman who is in shit form.
It was a bit of both. He's hardly giving the batsmen the benefit of any doubt for a ball that's barely tickling the leg stump on the inaccurate ball tracker.
But Kane walking across his stumps and missing a fairly straight one is 100% a shit shot, once again.

Kind of. In the past we've built up our expectations based on absolutely nothing but fantasies in our heads.
But this time our expectations were not mis-placed, we've been genuinely excellent the last few years and we'd just put away England easily with our big guns playing well. We had every right to go into this series talking a big game, and holy shit what a fall from grace it has been.

The way our batsmen in particular have rolled over has been galling

@Damo The TAB odds on us winning have come in from $56 earlier this morning to $41 - so you've obviously hit it hard!
Those three wickets have evened things up again.
I think even the most optimistic supporter would have to say that Aus are probably favourites now.

Bit premature lads.
This game still has 5 sessions to play. Let's wait until the end before we rush to hasty judgement.

Well they're unlikely to score another ~410 runs in those five sessions are they?

That Coromandel green is some good shit ey?
Is there a village cricket green in the Coromandel? I shall have to check it out next time I am over that way.
Meanwhile we've batted the sole wicket taker out of the attack and just scored a convincing 15 off an over from their first change bowler.

I'm not saying that they will or they won't.
I do think that if these two are still batting at drinks in the middle session tomorrow, that will be the time to assess the required run rate.
Nobody is going to disagree with that assessment are they?
