2nd Test New Zealand v Australia March 8-12 0830hrs @ Hagley Oval

[MJG14]

I heard a noise live.

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Just saw the Blundell shot, sorry but nobody can convince me T20 is not to blame for crap like that.

 

[danielnajdek]

Back to short shit

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Absolute dross from Starc.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Let's bowl short to the tail again. Brilliant this.

 

[MJG14]

Get this shit bloke out.

 

[The 747]

Damaging runs from Guggenheim

Starc closing in on a century

 

[Westend]

get him off just bowling crap

stuff you marnus dropped catch hurting us

 

[Lia]

Starc bowling too many stock balls - half trackers on leg stump

 

[danielnajdek]

So let me get this straight. He got him out first ball in the first innings with a yorker yet decides to bowl short to him now.

 

[HalloweenJack]

Let's bowl short to the tail again. Brilliant this.

It doesn't work and yet we keep doing it. The very definition of insanity.

 

[Forward Press]

I might be a tiny minority but I would actually not mind NZ setting us 300 to chase.

I'd like to see how we go chasing a difficult but attainable target.

 

[Plugger35]

The umpires can't wait to put their finger up when we bat, they were very reluctant to put their finger up when the Aussies were batting.

Even for plumb lbws.

We need to sub on a quality unbiased umpire like Billy Bowden.

 

[Jimthegreat]

Bloody Starc!

 

[The Defender]

Will be great, let’s see if the batsmen can win us a match.

You wont like what you see.

at least we have reviews now

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

I see we’ve reached the ‘lobotomy’ part of the innings.

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Australia goes through periods, both with bat and ball, where they appear to forget they are playing Test cricket.

 

[danielnajdek]

No slips and 3 on the boundary when bowling to Cougar Lion. What is Pat doing.

 

[Westend]

you have to take your catches these two have put on 40 odd already......marnus takes the catch they are 7 down for 300 lead 200 now it looks like they will get it up to 300 plus lead

Or we can bowl one near the stumps and take this pie thrower Starc off

A tactics that fails and fails and fails but hey, let's keep doing it. Match losing captaincy.

Helps if catches are held so these issues don't have to occur.

well when he is bad he is FF*King terrible and out of the big four he is the first one to go IMO

if he bowls that crap next summer kohli and co will just smash em
