***Official*** Australia in New Zealand 2016

Tui. HUH!!! What is it good for?

amirite

Saw a highlight just now of McCullum's dismissal and the aftermath. One of the commentators said

that's the way he plays

That's the last time we'll hear that.

We need a couple good partnerships. The reverse swing is bloody worrying. Why can't we do that

I think Aussie are too good to let it slip.

The Australians have been doing a bunch of things to get the ball to reverse swing, throwing on the bounce, etcetera. Smart tactics.

Yeah I've been working up a bit of a theory that we don't look after the ball as well as Australia, England etc. do. When our swing bowlers are in form they move it around when it's new, but even when we were using the Duke in England I don't recall us getting much swing past the 20 over mark. And I can't remember the last time we got any appreciable reverse swing.

 

[Malleeboy]

Reverse is more troublesome (like most swing) when it is added to pace.
150 and moving an inch, is tougher to face then 130 and moving a foot.

 

[straw man]

wasn't giving that live

edit: yeah nah

#could'vebeenanything

 

[Meridio]

Lol. that's a woeful decision.

 

[BeeGee]

Atrocious umpiring.

Thank god for DRS.

 

[Meridio]

Don't like this reverse swing Hazlewood is getting. Let's hope Anderson hits a six into someone's beer cup.

 

[Bahnz]

Couple of poor calls from Martinez in this game (though I thought the Burns decision was out when I saw it live).

 

[Burgey]

Jeez this is tough, hard cricket right now.

 

[Gnske]

Outside line?

 

[Pratters]

Been annoyed all series we don't have it on tv. :/

 

[straw man]

that looked pretty close if pad first

 

[Burgey]

Bat first. When I saw it live I thought it might have been pad then bat, but clearly not out

 

[Meridio]

Yeah live I thought that was pad first, but nope, inside edge first.

 

[straw man]

Time for Anderson to give the charge?

Another fine entry in the annals of Australian cricket history by the Marsh family
