Poms by 2 runs. Kiwis stumble at the end after good last over.

Doesn't help them, they needed to win by 20 odd to go the final.

What a joke of a ground lol.

Go attend a game there Darko. Brilliant place to watch cricket because the boundaries are so short.
Also a fantastic pitch.

Just enjoy it for a unique type cricket situation. I like the change from playing on 70 meter boundaries week , in week out

as they say its the same for both sides !

NZ won the toss and have elected to bat first.

Rain, rain go away........

Rain halts play. Aussie win and no. 1 ranking.

 

[gokangas]

Its a win. Well done to the Aussie team.

#2 isn't it?

 

[KiwiRoo]

Aussie too good for us. Bit of a lack of plan B from NZ batsmen as 180 would have been a good score on that track which was obviously showing the signs of being played on 3 times and should have got that with the start we got.

Hope Lynn bounces back. Don't like seeing good young cricketers copping that sort of luck

Pretty sure #no. 1

Some technicality keeps Pakistan top.

You mean bribe?

Could be. I just read headlines.

we played Pakistan earlier in the season
They've got some real talent in their side

Looks like NZ might get a boxing day test in the next couple of years too. I'll definitely come over for that !

 

[CrazyQ]

Good luck guys. I think we got this.

But just remember this...

Everyone originated from Africa so even if you win, we win.

Would love to see NZ and Australia for a Boxing Day Test match at the G.

It’s a must see in my book.

In fact the first day of any Boxing Day test match is pretty special. Huge when playing the poms.

Hope they’ve fixed the damn pitch up by then!
