Australia in New Zealand - 2 Test Series

[mal]

NZ follow on
AU only have 4 bowlers
A good safe start by NZ and they could make a game of this despite a 302 run deficit

Katich/Clarke/North can get through some overs to accomodate the 4 bowlers.
Also its not long til the lunch break so a short burst in the morning session and then a break!!

They will knock the kiwi's off (unless weather permits) tomorrow lunch time i would think!

[stampy]

i would have batted again, unless the weather forecast is a worry

Hauritz just bowls his 12th NO-BALL for the match
This crap from a so called professional cricketer with about a 6 step run up is simply PATHETIC.
It's not just him too, what about the coach? This has been an on going problem and nothing seems to change.

[Thiele]

New Zealand 5/183

Think we have been through this before and most the time he is not bowling no balls but agree JJ, time something was done about it

Does it bloody matter if an offie is 3 inches back from his normal bowling position on the crease, what the hell is going on here. Another story but I still can't believe how many caps this hack is going to have when he retires. We will look back on this period of Aussie spinners and shake our heads....Sorry REB, don't care if he is the best available, something has gone horribly wrong when a country that has so many resources and strong domestic comp can only put up a Ritz for national duties

I've been on the red FYI.....

[Rik E Boy]

Hands off the Ritz. He still bowls the odd cracker.

REB

[smithy]

Is he the best available ?

My wife gets off every now and then as well, doesn't mean I'm any good.....

Johnson to Southee
Southee swishes outside off stump and is caught behind
Southee stands his ground
A referral
Replays show Southee missed the ball by about 3 inches
Replays show Haddin hardly got excited
Replays conclusively show no hot spot on Southees bat
Replays show Southees foot slid in the crease and would have made the noise heard
Commentators agree in unison that Southee is not out

Southee still given out
FARCE

What could have been if SOUTHEE was given not out
5 balls later and BOLLINGER would have been bowling at either SOUTHEE or MARTIN

BEST TEST BOWLING AU V NZ
6/31 WARNE
6/53 LILLIE

6/72 LILLIE
6/106 DUTCHY

5/28 BOLLINGER
Had MJ gone wicketless for the rest of his over
Had Douggie the got a wicket for less than 3 runs


= Douggie for the best bowling against NZ !

[Hazbeen]

NZ now 6 for 314, a lead of 12 runs, Vettori bowled by Hauritz for 77, a partnership of 126 with McCullum.

[jackpot jim]

Australias No. 1 spinner HAURITZ has done it ! Has broken the potential match saving partnership of Vettori & McCullum. Bowled a cracker of a ball 1 foot down leg side and Vettori bottom edged it onto the stumps.
Super piece of bowling that.
NZ 6/320 lead by 18

[locky801]

Could be interesting if Australia have to chase around 150

Why ? whether they lose 1 wkt or 2 ?
