NZ v Australia Test #2

[Siam]

<p>Has there ever been two more different sessions in a test like this one has produced?</p>

[MN5]

<p>one guy gets out for 7 off 69, another faces 10 more balls and gets 145.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Siam ?.....the answer is no.</p>

[rotated]

<p>Finally caught up on the second session. What a phenomenal innings from McCullum and as barbarian said his career in a nutshell.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Congrats to Baz on a tremendous individual achievement.</p>

[Siam]

<p>I'll take 300, 320 would be a bonus, but wouldn't be surprised at sub 300.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Southees batting is a bit like not contesting lineouts, I know there's a theory to it but there is a better way with a bit of thought and practice</p>

[Dan54]

<p>Bit special watching that innings, can carry on doing what I was doing earlier now.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Am I allowed to say I don't mind this Aussie cricket team, without king fluffybunnies Haddin and Mitchell they seem to be a good normal sporting team, even Warner seems to have matured a bit.  I don't mind Smith at all, and seem to have a few decent bowlers that don't need to be idiots ale Mitchell.</p>

<p>Statistics indicate one of the tail enders will get abut 30, the rest fuck all, that'll get them over 300. Easy.</p>

We do have an extra long tail this test. With BJ still there I'm hopeful we can grind out to 340 with Wagner (whose technique is sound).

[Mokey]

<p>326/8.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Watling and Wagner in after Henry out for a wee cameo of 21.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Watling playing some classy shots. 3 fours in the last over.</p>

[Unco]

<p>BJ showing why Ronchi should be gooooonnnnneeee asap.</p>

[mimic]

<p>lol boult.. he must be really keen to bowl a lot tonight.. </p>
<p>still a lot of overs left in the day</p>

[Godder]

<p>350 up.</p>

[Godder]

<p>50 up for Watling.</p>

[mimic]

<p>just block it boult </p>

[Mokey]

<p>363/9. Boult 11, Watling 54.</p>

[Godder]

<p>370 all out.</p>

[Rembrandt]

Which Mitch?

[hydro11]

<p>Great wag from the tail. I hope Warner doesn't come off.Burns has been in poor form, we can't allow him to get too many.</p>

[ACT Crusader]

Nick, I'm guessing Dan's referring to Mitchell Johnson

[No Quarter]

I said I'd be stoked if we somehow got to 300, 370 is bonus territory after being put in. Thought it'd be game over pretty quickly but we are right in this.
