I thought hotstar was showing ? NZ matches are always shown on ESPN.

They're on Amazon prime. I actually love it, great video quality, no ads, you can actually replay old matches. I hope Prime aquires more series tbh

Nope. Only the Amazon Prime paid subscribers can watch it live.   There are some free sites like crictime.  But it has lots of annoying pop up adds.

Aus 256 AO.     7 wickets for M Henry..Lovely spell of fast bowling

In his last 7 tests (including this one) Henry now has 38 wickets at 19.1 and 204 runs at 25.5.

This test could hv been completely one sided, if not for Henry's freak spell.  Aus hv still got this in the bag though.

4th innings. Kane must do something good here else he will be termed as soft runs master.

[Kron]

Henry is still a nothing bowler outside nz abd england and we will all get to see it again

Williamson looking solid today. He'd want to score a 100 and make his 100th test memorable. They just need to trust the bounce and leave anything that's short and in the channel 

[Serpico]

So the pitch has now turned flat. Nz would need a 300 lead minimum to win from here. A big 100 is needed from their top bats

[Serpico]

Last 8 times Williamson has made 50 hes gone onto a 100. Can he keep that streak alive in this innings?

Damn what a jinx

[Adamant]

Mr Williamson almost always fails against big teams.

 

He was piling up centuries after centuries, was looking like he is in the form of his life, suddenly a top test team came up against him and he is now out of form

He is not sacrificing, he was getting diminishing returns at number 4, thought he would do wonders as opener.

 

Green would have been fine as opener.Many past Aussie players slammed him for his decision.

Well he was averaging 54-55 at 4 higher then any other player worldwide right now. So there was need of him to open esp knowing opening is the toughest job in SENA. Maybe the team asked him if he would do it and he agreed. Not many teams would ask or request their top player to do that

This 2nd test hangs in balance right now.   Lets see if NZ pull off a win from here.    I desperately want the kiwis to face us in the WTC Final.  (Instead of Aus)

Tbh we will crush NZ 3-0 at home. So no matter what happens I think it will be Ind vs Aus final yet again.

Nobody robs Peter to pay Paul. Number 4 was their rock, with this move you have made two spots into question.

 

If keeps failing as opener, what will happen next.

 

He wanted to bat as an opener, no one in their right mind would ask their bestman to leave his spot and play somewhere else.

Aus selectors have a big b*ner for cam green; size of said b*ner is nearly as long as green himself. they were not going to drop him, or marsh for whom they have an equally big b*ner

[vvvslaxman]

This is definitely not the best inform Aussie side battingwise. You can easily beat them. So NZ losing to them only tells how much mental strangle hold Australia has over NZ.
