***Official*** Australia v New Zealand - Final

Dissector

International Debutant
Terrific spell from Bond; could have easily had one or two more wickets. Will he get another over? Vettori would have been so handy in this kind of game both as captain and bowler.

Australia is getting bogged down here. While they are chasing a lowish score they can't completely forget the run rate; it won't be easy scoring at 5-6 per over on this wicket.

That four will help relieve the pressure,

If things get bad there is always a batting power play to come. I think Aussie are in the box seat.

Yep Vettori being injured is a MASSIVE factor. Perhaps, at this stage, it is THE factor of who wins and who doesn't.

Butler will get the wickets for us... He will be very good on this pitch I reckon

Franklin's first ball short 125 kms on middle & leg, bet he'll bowl short today

Franklin to Watson, no run, overpitched, 123ks, and Watson leans into a good-looking drive to Redmond at extra cover who saves runs

How is anyone surprised by this from Franklin?

All he has ever delivered is disapointment. At least Oram wouldn't have leaked runs and kept things tight - which is what is needed if the wickets are not falling.

Game over when head dropper Franklin comes on.

EDIT: another four ball from Franklin the messiah.
