Problem for NZ is that as good as he is at executing the skills he has, they still don’t win.
It’s a long slow way to get wickets and doesn’t stop us scoring 400+

Inevitably you won’t win big tests bowling that garbage line and length
They've got plenty of line and length guys like Boult, Southee and Henry that can't do what Wagner has done, and even England on livelier wickets than the current series couldn't do what Wagner has done either. Like him or hate him he gets the credits.

Apparently Matthew Wade passed a concussion test but has to do another one this morning.

I didn’t see the incident.  Did he wear a bouncer?
It's still the Gulf of Mexico, Don Old!

No DJC. He was fielding very close to the batsman and copped a very hard one.
I spent most of my money on Women and grog.
The rest I just wasted.

Whole summer of cricket has been a non contest, second best team going around??..what carp.
You have India, Aus, England and maybe South Africa...the rest are rubbish and if we are to have a decent summer of cricket we need to fixture a decent team from the former group I mentioned to be playing at least 3 tests if we have to include these second rate test nations because having these non contests are bad for the game IMO.
Everyone loves Aus to win but you want a contest not the carp that Pakistan and New Zealand have dished up...

I said months back this summer was headed for failure and look at it.  Disaster. 

Marnus my son, you could be anything.  Seriously good already regardless of the attack.

I'd be checking the betting slips.   That 50-50 result reeks and I'm not smelling roses and chocolate.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

The Indians were going at 80%, they didn't want to be there and treated it like a practice match, and you could tell Kholi wasn't interested at all as he barely raise a complaint!

The Aussies were also quite lucky on the night, several edges and miss-hits lobbed into free space and all the reviews went Australia's way.

Have to agree, Kohli was very giving of praise to the Aussie team  and treated the game like a charity event, seemed slow in moving his field and lacking in imagination which is unlike him and just let the game roll on.

Playing possum for the T20 World Cup?

Shami and Bumrah underdone, some kids playing, and next thing it's "Well we can't win so why try?"

Well, if India wants to muck around and play silly buggers the best thing our blokes can do is go out there and give them
a thrashing, and that's what they did.
Top effort from our openers. Warner loves making runs and he's very good at it.

A general bloody good effort from Australia and that's what I like to see. :)

Agreed, you can only play against who you play against.

No wonder it wasn't broadcast FTA, CheatsTV must have known something the rest of us didn't!

I reckon Virat and his lads might have had a few $$$ on the Aussies winning in the manner they did?
Finals, then 4 in a row!
