Cricketics Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Mostly to STARC, but these guys are just CLASS. Making a game out of this. Terrific. Brilliant spell from STARC too.
AmreekanDesi Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 you could feel the nervousness in the crowd through the TV
Precambrian Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Hat tip to Mitchell Starc. That's it. Their overall performance sucked.
MCGGG Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 We were very unlucky batting, chop ons that could've gone anywhere, poor umpiring decision against Warner, it was just one of those days, even at our worst we got within a whisker of beating them lol.
flamy Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 You can NEVER write the Aussies off. This is what I love about their cricketing culture. Massive respect :hatsoff: MCGGG, good team you got there, mayte. :icflove: This is why I'll take multiple bilateral, tri-series etc. with Aussies throughout the year. I have no qualms in saying for me, they are the team to beat. And, I thoroughly enjoy the contest between Ind-Aus. Ind-Pak never really appeals to me like Ind-Aus does.

May be the worst is yet to come :dontknow:
gaurav92 Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Starc bowled his heart out, others need massive improvements.
CoverDrive Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Yes like the never say die conquering Aussies of old. Also shades of old Pakistan in the way starc and cummins were blasting through NZ

Chop ons happen when you leave gaps between your bat and your pad!

Chop ons happen when you leave gaps between your bat and your pad![/quote'] The umpire should have given it not out first. It was too close to make a decision.
brendan07 Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 The umpire should have given it not out first. It was too close to make a decision. That doesn't make it a bad decision. It was hitting. As I always say, use your bat! Umpires are average. Was it out, probbaly. Would I have given it, yes. I said "out" when I was watching it live. Was it a 50/50, yes. Went to the bowler. Not an incorrect decision.
amiret Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 This is a fantastic Aus team. they can even carry passengers like Watson and make a match of it with Just 10 players. Aus is vastly superior compared to India , the only way we can beat them is if they have another terrible day like 2day.
adi B Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 The umpire should have given it not out first. It was too close to make a decision. Lol why should the umpire give it not out in the first place? That looked pretty okay,u are so butthurt that u can't even give credit to the black caps
Gollum Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Is it just me or was the quality of the game today not that good? Batting from both sides at least in my eyes was a massive letdown.
BlueBee Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Lol why should the umpire give it not out in the first place? That looked pretty okay' date='u are so butthurt that u can't even give credit to the black caps[/quote'] Yeah lol. That looked out at the first sight and it was. It was tipping off stump, can't call it a bad decision
gaurav92 Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Is it just me or was the quality of the game today not that good? Batting from both sides at least in my eyes was a massive letdown. WTF? The game was an absolute nail biter. What a comeback by Aussies (read Starc) and it went down to the last pair, what are u smokin brah ? It was a quality game, no two thoughts about it. But yes, the batting of both the sides were a let down, it wasn't a 150 odd pitch, it was a decent 280-290 pitch with an addition of 30-40 more for the short boundaries.
nevada Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Mitchell Johnson was the man of the match - for New zealand. If he had given up just 10-20 runs less, Aussies would have won comfortably.
