Voges back above 100 again

[PowerBug]

I personally think this is the best piece of trivia. Adam Voges, with an average of 101.37 is the 2nd highest averaging Australia in test history. In the history of test cricket, he is also the 2nd highest averaging player, however the highest averaging player is West Indian...

"In comes James Pattinson. So now a left-hand batsman for Wagner to bowl to. He stays round the wicket with five men catching on the leg side"

Come on New Zealand... That's not in the spirit of cricket ;)

4 Australians now suckered by Wagner with the pull.  Time to put that shot away especially when it is an obvious tactic.

[Ringo]

Looks like the umpires want to crack down on throwing the ball in on the bounce with ball tampering the rule.  For heavens sake the bowlers have it hard enough so we may as well just put bowling machines at either end,
Would be interesting to see what penalty they would invoke if it continues.

@Powerbug getting very close to bodyline but still within the rules.  Notice how the put the Short Leg and Deep Square leg in front of the popping crease to comply with the rules.

Pattoooo  8) Latham a little unlucky

[Bill Manspeaker]

they whinge teams don't bowl 90 overs in the day yet they spend 5 minutes on something that is CLEARLY not out. only 1 replay was required. they replayed it 314 times

[Bill Manspeaker]

super catch from Warner

[Ringo]

NZ getting the rub of the green today which goes to show evens out.  Hot spot does Australia similar to the Hotspot earlier in the series in OZ. This time 3rd umpire said the ball saving the LBW.

Australias fielding still sloppy with three dropped catches this morning.  Will be interesting if NZ get a lead of 200+

[Bill Manspeaker]

gonna have a tricky chase on our hands

having said that though, if these 2 can bat this easily then we should do it easily

[Bill Manspeaker]

PATTOOOOOOOO
