Really feel for Jamieson. He's had such a bad run with stress fractures. That pretty much means O'Rourke will be getting a run now and Wagner will be able to do his short pitched barrage against Smith if needed.

The NZ test team would likely be the following?

1 Latham
2 Conway
3 Williamson
4 Ravindra
5 Mitchell
6 Blundell
7 Phillips
8 Henry
9 Southee
10 Wagner
11 O'Rourke

12 Santner

I'm looking forward to next Friday when I will be at Eden Park to watch the Australian game.

 

[Bay39er]

Kuggelein 0-63 from 4 overs in ILT20 final in Dubai so we pick him for our test team!

 

[jonesy101]

They said he was picked for his recent form against Australia A. He took a lot of wickets and from memory he might have scored a hundred as well.

 

[watcher]

Personally would have gone for Milne, but SK is a good choice to replace Jameson. Especially with his batting.

Rollicking start from the Black Caps 75/1 after 7.

Allen and Conway doing the early damage.....pity Allen got out when he did, if he stays in 10+ overs your pretty much guarenteed a 200 score.

200 should still be the target after this start but im not sure if we have the firepower down the order.
Ravindra doesnt seem like a player who can go whack from the first ball.

It's up to Conway to force the pace and take risks and Rachin to be the anchor.
Well done Devon.
Class is permanent

Good work from Ravindra

Good work from Ravindra

Damn.....it may have taken him a bit to settle in but there all coming out of the middle now....what a talent we've unearthed here.

[Boats n Hoes]

Well done batters....done their job. Got 200 on the board against the much vaunted aussie bowling line up.

Would normally feel real confident with that score.
'But when youve got a guy called Maxwell in your line up any score is getable.

Aussies gonna love our small boundaries.

 

[Boats n Hoes]

Ferguson and Milne bowling with some heat.

First time we've had a bowling attack outpace the Aussies?

Head gone, plenty of threats still left tho.

 

[Boats n Hoes]

16 off the last over required!
And these Aussies are hitting sixes for fun.....theres to lose isnt it

 

[Canadian_Warriors_Fan]

Poor poor bowling in the death by NZ. Too many wides, too many drop catches. Just not good enough.

 

[Boats n Hoes]

Fark!

Oh well, good game, went down to the last ball. Got to win those tho, We might not get that close again.

 

[Riz]

Sloppy from Phillips, he's full of confidence in the field, taking sceamers in the tests, but looked a bit like he was trying for highlights tonight.

 

[Ever Hopeful]

I think Southee is finally cooked. 8 wickets in his last 9 bowling innings across all formats. Lacking pace. His batting is woeful. A few dropped catches creeping in. I wonder when he'll call time.

The Basin will need to be a green top for him.

 

[Evil_Mush]

Good work from Ravindra

Agreed

Great game to be at, even with all the frustrating wides and fielding flubs - can't get more exciting than a photo finish against Straya.

 

[John Nick]

What a turn around.
Betting is even now
