Yep. It was a shame that the WACA produced a slow pitch. He probably would have made 350 on a normal WACA deck.
Warner could make mince meat of the records for batting (except average) if he can evolve a balance between the way he plays home and abroad.
Have a lot of respect for NZ cricket because they are plucky bastards that get near every bit of out of their talents.
On pitches such as the ones that Australia has been producing, to try to make tests last 5 days, the major battle for the side batting second is the mental battle. Respect to Williamson and Taylor who were good enough to work through it against a very good bowling attack.
Shame that NZ doesn't have the penetration in its attack for our conditions, this could have been a very interesting series. If only Shane Bond was 15 years younger.
Do you think McMillan is right about Starc and the speed gun? I did not see the spell but it seems a very unusual things for a one off jump in speed by 10 km/h. He is developing into a seriously impressive bowler. I wonder whether he can change his trajectory a little like Johnson did to put more weight behind the ball. He could be absolutely terrifying, he basically already is.
