Midge gets Styris after going for 3 fours. Very good catch by Ferny.

Poor Noffke - got a diamond duck and may not get a bowl at this rate.

Ta. Suggestive, at least.

Noffke gets a wicket in his first international over.

Excellent reverse woof with double twist, JGK.

Nice work by Noffke . . . hope he gets a run in the Tosspot-Wanker series.

Should have seen my effort earlier in the thread when I said that Aust were carp for only being 1/10 off 3.2 overs - after 3.4 they were 1/20.

Roy is grouse, and you are a master. An unbeatable combination.

And Noffke gets another. 69/8

Jacob Oram may well be my fave Kiwi cricketer ever.

Ah good.

Select Tait over Clark, select Tait over Clark, select Tait over Clark......

And Noffke finishes it off with the shaggers only 54 runs behind.

Will be fun seeing the match at the WACA later.

Good to see a bit of life in the pitch.

With india coming to town it's pretty clear we should be hoping for a bit of life in the tracks and using 4 seamers.

Well, I found the match quite boring. Roy's innings was OK to watch, and it's always nice to see Australia beat NZ in any sport, but as a spectacle, I don't feel it delivered.

by lardbucket Tue 11 Dec 2007, 20:57

So we won. Yawn.

can't wait for India to arrive.

C'mon Zat ...It made Tait look like a good bowler ...

That's what I like about rubbish cricket. The games are always so close.

Maybe sometimes it is better not to know.

Perhaps Zat, but I was flicking over to the Pom/Lankan Test as Jayawardene and Silva were crabbing along, and I know which was the more entertaining game.

With all those dubbers in the team, he thought he might be able to get a bit of action before the game.

Skully, I refuse to believe that anything could have been less exciting than the trumped-up, artificial garbage the t20 served up. It was shite.

No, he was supposed to be putting the daks on, not removing them.
