[Athlai]

Majority of NZ'ers would NOT.

**** em

That's a lot of ****ing.

 

[The Hutt Rec]

Couldn't care less about the union when it comes down to it (although it would be funny if the ABs won after pretty much pre-emptively sacking their coach) ... but inject those cricket and league wins into my veins.

Looks like Australia winning this would be pretty disastrous for the tournament.

nz bowl first

green out head in

chapman out neesham in

 

[straw man]

"Calf niggle" for Chapman, so big chance for Neesham - I'd only bowl him 2-4 overs, really want to see runs from him.

 

[Prince EWS]

I'd probably bowl even Mitchell ahead of Neesham at this point.

 

[Adorable Asshole]

Great. I wonder who we'll play in the final.

So we both agree your team is not winning this match.

But NZ drop to 87%

 

[King Kane]

Glad we won the toss and bowling first, there should hopefully be some movement around for our bowlers early on and batting should be easier later.

Not that stoked to see Neesham back but his bowling could be handy, it would be nice to see some runs from him too but I wouldn't be counting on it.

 

[Days of Grace]

I’m just glad we are going to get some overs from our no.7. It’s just better for team balance.

 

[Burgey]

Probably in keeping with the shambles of this WC that they schedule the main game early and put a nothing match up on under lights.

 

[Moss]

Hope the conditions back up the decision to bowl first. Eden Park 2015 is the only time in the last decade NZ have chased successfully against Aus. Barring the India game at Chennai, Aus have been imperious batting first.

 

[Moss]

Probably in keeping with the shambles of this WC that they schedule the main game early and put a nothing match up on under lights.

This was no doubt scheduled early keeping in mind the viewership from Aus-NZ.

 

[King Kane]

Probably in keeping with the shambles of this WC that they schedule the main game early and put a nothing match up on under lights.

It's strange that this isn't the later game rather than the Bangladesh and the Netherlands game but it suits the time difference in Aus and NZ better.

 

[Burgey]

Jeez that’s some shot

****ing Warner man. How can you genuinely look like you’ve completely forgotten how to bat in one format but look as good as ever in another?

 

[King Kane]

Not a great start from Henry, bowled too short.

 

[Athlai]

Im here. Disappointed they're not 2 down already, but ill wait
