This is where Mitchell Johnson would've come in handy with his batting :lol:

Just overcast at the moment, but there is a chance of more thunderstorms this afternoon.

Except New Zealand would still be batting if he was playing:P

Never Change Clarkey, never change.

Pattinson looks good defensively, hopefully him and Siddle can build a partnership, I think I read somewhere recently that up until U/16's Pattinson was a opening batsmen for his rep side which explains his solid technique

Just got home and remembered the cricket was on.

WTF happened?

All of the guys who have gotten out have played bad shots or not played a shot at all in Clarke's case, green wicket has helped the Kiwi's out but its really been very poor batting

It's not even a shit batting track though. There's a bit in it for the bowler, but if a bloke sets him and actually plays patiently and focuses, they can make a few runs. Look at Brownlie yesterday. Cricket pitches have become so tame, and batting so easy now a days, that anything with a bit or movement or bounce, completely blows batsmen away. And then it's labelled a shit pitch and they stop playing tests there. It's ridiculous. I'd be very surprised if there weren't some complaints after this test.

Wish these commentators would stop praising our batsmen, they've now down it to Warner, Clarke and Siddle and they've all gotten out the next ball

Wish the Kiwi's still had Shane Bond. Such an amazing bowler.

:lol: I go to get a drink NZ are 0/34. I come back they're 2/36

:lol: Yeah its 70 in Park Cricket, my bad.

Brownlie gone. Huge wicket. 6/178 lead of 192

Boult holes out to Hussey on the boundary. NZ all out for 226, lead of 240. Australia need 241 to win. Will be a very interesting 2 sessions.

We'll win.

Hughes has been out to the exact same dismissal in all 4 tests, Bowled Martin, Caught Guptill. Ridiculous

This. FFS Hughes](*,)

Now we've got a real game on our hands.

And now Bracewell is on a hattrick, Hussey gone LBW first ball. 5/159

Take a bow David Warner, really saving our bacon.

I don't think I've ever seen anyone run a 2nd run as hard as he did :lol:

The best thing about that 100 is it will push Hughes out of the side I think.

Well done Warner!

This is the first time I've watched him bat for a while, so I'll withdraw my previous concerns about his technique & mentality.

What is more impressive is that he looks to have 'reset' to chase down the winning 60 runs.

Shouldn't you be at work? :lol:

:lol: I am. We have the cricket on in our area.


Haddin and Siddle both fall within 4 balls of eachother! Australia still need 47 to win, c'mon David Warner!

Wow, Pattinson gets given out for what seems to be a plum LBW. Decision Review shows it hit him just outside the line. What a cracking finish to this Test!

If Australia win, I'll shit.

Put all of yesterdays winning on NZ at 7/199. They were still paying 2.70!

Lyon just needs to block everything on the stumps and leave everything not on the stumps and leave everything else to Warner.

<3 DRS

FUCK YES~!

Dear Nathan Lyon,

Anything not on the stumps, JUST LEAVE IT!!!!

Sincerely,
The whole of Australia

What an intense finish. Two LBW decisions reversed to be not out. Inside 20 runs now, Warner needs to stay in control.

WHY IS WARNER TAKING SINGLES???

ffs
