Kiwis are now 7/107, with Starc on a hat trick.
Starc has just gone past Dennis Lillee's total of 355 test wickets. Lillee's total used to be the world record, though it has since been surpassed many times over. Lillee's total would be significantly higher if the World Series Cricket Supertest wickets were included.

8/109, with Green getting in on the action.
Starc has to wait until the start of the next over, to bowl his hat-trick delivery.
The Kiwis just lost 3/0 in 4 balls.

Henry survives the hat trick ball
In a script we've all become far too familiar with, 8/109 has very quickly become 8/154.
Is there any chance of Australia's bowling cartel coming up with a decent plan for the tail enders, rather than focusing all of their attentions on the top order batsmen? Any chance of this happening, ever?

Here's a tip. Bowl at the stumps and set a field accordingly.
... and it comes to an end very quickly - with 2/0 in 3 balls. All out for 162. Hazlewood took the last wicket, to get his Michelle.
Aussies off to a Bazball start... 0/2 off 3 overs.
Smith out for 11, shouldering arms to a ball which would have clipped the stumps. How long can the selectors persevere with him as an opener? Probably a while, given that our next match isn't until November.
Aus 1/20
Shall we call it 2/20, given that the walking wicket (Labuschagne) is now at the crease?

Who needs cricinfo or Kayo when you have the Dark Lord of the Sith 
3 for, but Labs is still in, maybe back in form?
Someone forgot to let Travis know that the sun going down means end of day, not the middle part of a t20.
Edit - and wicket thrown.

Head does what Head does - trying to belt the cover off everything, until he got out trying to belt a ball that wasn't there to hit.
Head's style is great when it comes off, but far too often it results in him getting himself out cheaply.

Matt Henry has sex for sextysex after the sexty-sexth over.

Got to be careful with early calls
Yep... first time Lab has looked remotely like a batsman in 6 months, arguably even longer.

Latham & Williamson have got the kiwis back in this game. Carey dropping Latham could prove costly. Good game of cricket.
Meanwhile India look like smashing the Poms by an innings. Poms going all bazzball again at 4.5 per over... but what is the point when you are losing wickets frequently. Appears Stokes is cooked.

The Duckett dismissal was embarrassing. So was Bairstow chatting s**t, then getting out 4 balls later.

So Bairstow went better a run per ball in both innings... but what is the point if you can't get past 50.

NZ well and truly back in this match. Lead by 206 atm with 4 wickets in hand.
Black Caps should win from here barring a monumental stuff up that involves Scott Kuggelein bowling for the majority of the innings, Australia have rarely shown any ability to chase down a 4th innings total near or over 250 even with stronger batting lineups than this one.
Australia like the Gabba test don’t deserve to win it either, allowing NZ to make 162 in the 1st innings after being 8/107, then top 7 bar Marnus’ all out due to poor shot selection or no footwork and now getting slogged around by Kuggelein of all people.

I think we can end the Smith as opener thing now
