Cricket: NZ vs Aus
-
Well it's been disappointing and we could have done a bit better with the bat, but to be honest we're just miles outgunned in the bowling department.
So while the batsmen are being given the stick, in my view it's more in the bowling that the difference lies - when they bat and when we bat it just looks like two different games. You have people like Head and Paine looking comfortable and finding it easy, while people like Rossco and Kane are being worked over.
We're bringing CdG in as first change and they're bringing Starc.
It's unfortunately something we've seen in Oz on numerous occasions including last time we were here.
@Chris-B when you have a look our options then we are always going to be outgunned in bowling by what must be the best bowling attack in World Cricket. However they work their plans and can keep us in the game. But the batsmen who were all talked up (Except Jeet) prior have collectively failed in 3 innings in a row. If the batsmen were that good one or more of them would have stood up but they haven’t. Some were picking a bunch of NZ batsmen in their combined teams. So bowlers have performed to expectations bar spinning whereas batsmen todate have been disappointing. Though not all is lost and they have another chance today

@Godder I''m really meaning Latham and Williamson need to be there - or miraculously Blundell.

@KiwiMurph said in Cricket: NZ vs Aus:
Another poor error by an NZ batsman.
Poor ball to get out to.
Total lack of discipline from a guy who should know better

Erasmus favours Aus with every single call he makes.

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