    Maybe Australia aren't as far off the pace as they seemed a couple of weeks ago...

      CdG caught on the boundary, and Ian Smith nailed it ‘there was an air of predictably about that’

      Neesham>CdG

      At least Neesham can play the ‘nudge it around for a few overs’ game, as well as clear the rope.

      These last two performances are sooo bloody disappointing, we haven’t even put up a fight.

        in modern limited over cricket, who gives a fuck about the run rate until it gets to 10/over. like literally, we didn't have to do anything stupid for another 10 or so overs.
        could've noodled it around for 10 overs and just scored 40-45.
        we've been made to look real average in these two games

          Mark Richardson calling it right - we look bamboozled by spinners.
          We've always looked bamboozled by half-decent spin.

            Are we that guy in club cricket who has all the gear and nice clean whites. He's keen as and a really nice guy for a nuffy. His technique looks ok in the nets but, while he gives it his all, he is worth fuck all runs and the odd helpful 18 not out keeps him turning up?

            Is that us? Look pretty good but do fuck all when it counts?

            This morning I thought we'd find out how good we are today - big match, good pressure.

            Fuck....

            Monday's big eh?

              You lot are negative nellies. Nicholls can easily get a big century and there is enough batting left to support him.

                  And bracewell. Boult has a test match 50 after all (I think?)

                    The Gunner WASP says we are a 0.5% chance to win.

                    Those odds aren’t high enough to make me want to miss out on some much needed sleep, so I’m out.

                        Bracewell is the key now.

                        So long as the remaining batsmen can support him we're still a chance.

                            This series NZ are getting exposed. Talk about outclassed.

                              Can we appoint a 24/7 physio to keep Neesham on the park for more than 2-3 games?

                                I love your optimism but we've been done for a while now. Indian bowling lineup is too good for our lower order, we are reliant on Guppy, Kane and Rosco going big against quality opposition. They've all failed two games in a row now.

                                    The team should have Munro OR CdG. Both is a liability.

                                    I'll take a batsman who is good for 30 runs every time over someone who makes 50, 3, 2, 7, 10, 4, 50 every time.

                                      @Mokey I think both are a liability. Neesh has to be the number one all rounder now (as long as he is fit).

                                      Now we need to find a new opener or move Latham back to opening and find another keeper who can average 30 batting at 7.

                                        That was an outrageous shot from Boult.

                                          Nine batsmen made it to double figures, but only one score of note.
