You'll do me Jnr. I like a pessimistic Aussie.

That was quite a run out. Was the first ball of the match I saw, have only just woken up and had a shower, in case you wanted to know that.

I see you're operating on gentleman's hours Ed

I am indeed.

Vettori bowling well again, looks like Hayden's back in decent form too which is worrying. And I'm worried about Gilchrist on Saturday, 2 failures in a row, doesn't seem to often have 3...

Yep. I think Styris's bowling will be missed today. Can't wait to see how Goldie gets on today although he's got his work cut out on this pitch. Aussie tail looks quite long but haven't seen enough of Hussey to judge him yet.

Wilson bowling now, gone for 7 off his first 3 balls so far...hope he gets his line & length sorted out quickly.

Here comes some easy runs for the Aussie Wilson is on. Hayden looking better each ball, look bad for the Kiwis.

Well that was a netural comment, apart from the Wilson one. It hard to rate anyone who played for the All Blacks, especially when rugby is my No 2 sport

Not a great start to his comeback. Can't see him getting another bowl if Astle bowls well. Hope he gets a chance with the bat.

Is Gavin Larsen the wettest commentator in NZ cricket or is it Danny Morrison?

 

[chaminda_00]

Vettori in to his 9th over what is Fleming doing, the guy hasn't even taken a wicket. He should of been taken of 3 overs ago.

He's bowled well.

Good spell by Vettori. Good innings by Hayden as well. Its amazing what a little faith and persistance in a player will achieve (isn't that right TEC?).
