rollingstoned Posted March 11 Author Share Posted March 11 Wth how did nzl manage to lose this one? I thought I'll wake up to Aussies getting bowled out cheaply and Unzud finally having win a test against them after a decade. Link to comment

Serpico Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 A loss here would have forced Australia to fix some of their weak links, head/marsh/carey. Now they'll play unchanged XI vs india with Smith opening nevada, Gollum and Sgattick10 1 2 Link to comment

Realize team is bigger and a win is a win but Carey is bound to be disappointed after that amazing rearguard effort." You said it: team is bigger. Get the job done. What the f*** is wrong with our dolts even on crackinfo, this is the same sh!t that cost us the WC where the focus was on another BRat hundred even in the SF at Mumbai Dumb dumber dumbest.

That being said Carey perhaps saved his career after that knock. Inglis was breathing down his neck. Gollum 1 Link to comment
Lone Wolf Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 (edited) So Kiwis are out of WTC final. That leaves Aus India and SA to fight it out. SA needs to win every game and hope India beats Aus in Aus. Eng most likely out as well after today's result. Edited March 11 by Lone Wolf nevada 1 Link to comment
Tillu Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Just copy pasting this from another forum. NZ has a lot of questions to answer. Just goes to show the great lengths NZ takes to neutralize the subcontinental spinners. All spinners' records in NZ vs South Africa/England/Australia Tests in NZ since March 2015: https://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/e...2;team=3;team=5;template=results;type=bowling 17 Tests, 129 wickets at avg of 29.31, SR of 59.0 All spinners' records in NZ vs India/Bangladesh/Pakistan/Sri Lanka Tests in NZ since March 2015: https://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/e...6;team=7;team=8;template=results;type=bowling 18 Tests, 67 wickets at avg of 55.59, SR of 94.8 Gollum 1 Link to comment

RSA and NZ are the worst and most shameless pitch doctors, period. Next time we tour NZ we will get pitches like the 2002 tour. Tillu 1 Link to comment

RSA will tour Bangladesh for 2 tests later this year, meaning they too are out of the WTC final.....they haven't drawn a test in SC the last 8 years, forget winning. Whitewashed in Ind, Pak, SL the last time they toured. BD will fancy their chances of winning the series, maybe even 2-0. Lone Wolf 1 Link to comment
Gollum Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 The mental stranglehold Aussies have over NZ is unreal. Link to comment

If Joe Root played for India, he will be as good as Jacques Kallis as an all rounder. That's why I never take the claims that Kallis was a great all rounder seriously.

Btw NZ-India is a 3 test series. Lone Wolf 1 Link to comment

In Eng they did beat them before WTC final... 1-0. In NZ Stokes's Eng had the ignominious record of dropping a test for the first time since 2008. Link to comment
