NZ v Australia Test #2
-
Kane gone for 97. Boy did he deserve a hundred. Game over.
-
<p>look a fat lady....</p>
-
Yep Southee gone 2nd ball.
-
<p>ffs Kane!! the end is nigh </p>
-
<p>at least they have to make them put their kit on and bat again...</p>
-
<p>Overreacting Kiwis, too <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://www.smh.com.au/sport/cricket/australia-v-new-zealand-second-cricket-test-josh-hazlewood-blows-up-over-umpires-20160223-gn0z3h.html'>http://www.smh.com.au/sport/cricket/australia-v-new-zealand-second-cricket-test-josh-hazlewood-blows-up-over-umpires-20160223-gn0z3h.html</a><br>

<p>In this instance Henry. Otherwise Craig or Santner.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>While Southee can score runs faster, I reckon Boult could occupy the crease longer...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Though Southee's batting is far less relevant than his apparent inconsistency with the ball these days. Did someone mention the idea of Wasim or Waqar helping out with the bowlers? </p> -
<p>We are getting fucked really, really hard. </p>

<p>Yep, outclassed.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>My outside hopes/dreams of a series win were toast once Taylor and Santner were ruled out. Shame it wasn't a winning note for McCullum to retire on too.</p> -

<p> </p>
<p>Yeah that was me.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I suppose with Southee it depends on the situation, in this case yeah you're right more of a grafter would have been a better bet but it's rearranging deck chairs on the titanic or whatever that clichÃ
is.....</p> -

<p>Taylor definitely but Santner ?????</p> -
Home and away, the Aussies have dominated the play. We've had moments and sure there may be a couple of highlights with Taylor's double and Baz's world record, but that quickly fades when you lose the match/series. <br><br>
Whereas a test like Bellerive 2011 and the team bowling and fielding display in the first innings and Bracewell's match winning spell will be and are more memorable.
