Black Caps v Australia

[Canes4life]

Fk sake Santner.

[Cyclops]

Phillips had the right idea, we just need to be trying to score off every ball rather than trying to smash it. We just need to be placing the ball better.

Used up some precious deliveries then gone. Hopeless.

[Canes4life]

@MN5 Phillips ain’t doing any better tbh.

[MN5]

Conway might be out for the test series if that injury is bad enough.

( which may be a blessing given his form )

[Canes4life]

@MN5 atleast Young has had plenty of mins under his belt.

1 from 9 is hopeless

[Canes4life]

Another gone. Chapman fails again. Why does he keep getting picked?

He's actually quite good, but the pressure created by Santner's promotion is what caused that wicket.

Batting order was all wrong, Phillips should have opened with Young at three. Santner should remain in the mid-lower order where he belongs.

[Cyclops]

Averaged 44 at 140 last year, 30 at 160 the year before.

We're just going too hard on a pitch that seems to have quite an awkward pace/bounce that makes it tough to really get after.

[Gunner]

I’m watching this delayed.

How fucking dumb was The Aussies last 10 overs batting.

Our first 5 and we’re looking extremely fucking incompetent, difficult to watch.

What was a moderate total to chase, we’ve pretty quickly made it a tough one.

[LABCAT]

Barring a miracle, it's game over now.

[gt12]

Ha ha, we are getting smashed.

Right now, my old man was like 'shit, I better drink faster or this game will be finished before my beer'

[Gunner]

This batting display couldn’t get much worse.

If we play this bad on Sunday I’ll be demanding my money back and sending NZ cricket an invoice for petrol.

[MN5]

I’m not sure what I can’t stand more. The fact Zampa is on a hat trick or his stupid glasses

[Chris B.]

Luckily, we've got some reinforcements to call on for the World Cup.

Conway, Ravindra, Williamson, Mitchell, Neesham, Henry, Southee and Tickner!

[MN5]

Trent boult batting at 8 which is also his high score

And boy do we need them.
You can keep Tickner though.

[Cyclops]

This is really putting Head's innings into perspective. Everyone else has really struggled to score at pace.

Southee as well.

Seems like our selectors don't know how to select a T20 team, no other team in the world selects 4 number 11 batsmen. T20 is max four full time bowlers and at least two of them need to be able to at least do a bit of batting.
