    Another 1 or 2 before stumps and we'd have to say we were favourites.

    Why does Blundell not stand up to Timmy? He just looks slow

    I don't feel comfortable with these two batsmen still there. They both have the ability to take the game away from us

    Your post is 100% correct…..but on the positive side they’ve both been in quite shite form of late.

    The match is 50/50. Fuck I love test cricket !!!!!!!!

    If I'd been offered Aussie 77-4 with 202 to win I'd have happily taken that

    Pitch looks good, should still have a bit of juice tomorrow morning. First hour or so will be huge. If we get a wicket or two it will be game on

    I'm not falling for your reverse jinx game. We are talking about the WTC champion Australian team. We haven't won at home in 30 years against you, we are still underdogs 😉

    I think we don't have enough runs. Wickets fall when the ball is relatively new. We don't have enough runs to have a decent crack with the second new ball - if we get there at all.

    If we bowl well we can win but I have a sinking feeling.

    I'll still be like a cat on a hot tin roof tomorrow expecting Australia to snatch this one from us, but for now it's a relief to see us finally fighting against Oz.

    I have vague memories of being a fourth former watching Tony Blain help us get home by 5 wickets (and his 'big walks' to square leg between deliveries). Watching that live I didn't think it'd be 31 years until we had another sniff v Oz at home.

    it's a lot of runs to get. If this pair get a hundy and a fifty, that still leaves 50 runs from Carey + tailenders. It's tough.

    That said this pitch looks veyr easy when the ball is old. Monstrous first hour tomorrow ... Test Cricket is No 1, just unbeatable for tension and drama.

    I was a sixth former….

    From memory that was just as that Oz team became awesome and went and claimed the Ashes right afterwards with their top order and Warnie plundering the hapless poms.

    Lovely unbeaten knock from Ken Rutherford too, or as I like to call him the Matt Henry of batsmen.

    Fuck off. We're playing Straya. You guys will walk it in. Century each to these dudes. Day and a half to spare.

    Am not joking.

    Eat 14 kilos of sweaty camel bag.

    Home team advantage. Plenty of time in the bank.

    NZ level the series by tea

    Fuck off with your underdogging. You're Straya. We're NZ. This ends one way. We've already fucked our chance letting you pricks off the hook this evening.

    If this was any other opposition you'd say NZ to win. But Straya. Fuck Youse.

    Australia win this for sure… fuckin hope, it’s worse than the impending loss itself
