***Official*** Australia vs New Zealand ODIs 2016/17

[CM Punk]

I hope these spuds are able to at least outscore Warner..

 

[Starfighter]

Some panache in Smith's signalling.

 

[Spikey]

expecting ferguson to come out blasting and then get tired by his 6th ball

Something seriously wrong in the culture, the only two guys who aren't in this squad who performed for us in the WC was Baz and Elliott.

... and Anderson and Vettori and Milne. And you could argue that Taylor 1/2 performed in the WC. So 5 1/2 players = 1/2 the side ...

i love how depressed Ian Smith always sounds after every match in Australia haha. except Hobart 2011 when he was full pinging

Heh, I listened to Warner's post-innings interview - he seemed to think the pitch was a bit two paced. Regardless, this side is so dependent on Guptill or KW that anything over 250 was going to be tough. It reminds me of the team in the early 90's when aside from Crowe & maybe Andrew Jones, no-one in the side could really be counted on to get runs against opponents like Wasim & Waqar.

A good incentive for the remaining domestic T20 competition. The likes of Chapman, Tom Bruce, Seifert & Blundell must like their chances of getting a run later in the season.

I hope we start afresh, the only players who should be kept from this series should be Guptill, KW, Santner, Boult, Southee, Neesham and Henry. Everyone else shouldn't make the next squad.

Don't take him too seriously, the guy talks up Kane like he's a batting genius who is in the same league as Tendulkar...

 

[CM Punk]

14 more runs to beat Warner.

Sums up any NZ cricket fan tbh.

 

[CM Punk]

Warner might outscore us

 

[Energetic]

Thanks to Australia for demoralizing New Zealand ahead of their series with Bangladesh. Tamim Iqbal is better than Warner.

 

[The Hutt Rec]

Reading all the NZ baggers come out of the woodwork is actually worse than the 3-0 drubbing.

He sounded like he was having an accident in his pants watching and analysing a KW forward defence in the first game

I feel silly for buying into SkyTV's KW hype...

tbf, so did Michael Clarke tonight. I remain a Kane fan, I back him to bounce back in the home series.

Channel Nine are good at getting him on the microphone as the game is about to finish, when NZ is beaten.

And there is nothing wrong with that either. If you can't see how good Kane is then it is your loss entirely.

 

[CM Punk]

For someone who has watched Martin Crowe, is Kane actually any real chance of surpassing him?

You can have Technique, give us Kohli or Rahane.

Smithy sounds like he's holding back tears...
