And bloody hell, what's wrong with kiwis today.. how many overs left ?

Well, not sure what happened with New Zealand openers today. They scored a combined sh!t-solid one run. However, as long as Kane Williamson and Ross Taylor are batting, I don't think that there's much to worry about. They should be able to make a nice comeback in the inning.

So I was busy last few days and could not follow any of the Test. Neither Pak vs Sri nor Aus vs NZ. But I am free now and going to enjoy some cricketing time at home.

Looking at the score and weather in PAK vs SRI match, I do not think there are any excitement left there but in the Aus vs NZ match may be we can find something however NZ seems in the back-foot?

Meanwhile Pak vs SL game is cucked... 86 over gameplay so far and its 3rd day.

It suites really well for Pakistan as they might have lost the match if not for the rain with the terrible form they are in and now they can have a sigh of relief as the second day is also washed out Cheesy

.

I would say both pakistan and Sri Lanka must be feeling relax right now. First WTC points for them, doesn't matter if it's comes through wash out game.

And bloody hell, what's wrong with kiwis today.. how many overs left ?

Wow Aussies on fire.. Back to back wickets from Starc and Hazelwood. Newzealand are 1/2 Shocked

I doubt if they'll ever avoid follow-on from this stage. Only a solid parternship between Taylor and Williamson can save NZ from a defeat.

Edit: Vishnu was faster. NZ 2/2

It looks as if New Zealand are in all sorts of trouble against Australia. The Aussies made 400 plus and in reply the Kiwis are struggling at 1/2. They lost the wickets of Jeet Raval and Tom Latham, with just one run on board. Ross Taylor and Kane Williamson are batting now and let's see how long they will survive against the fiery Australian pace attack.

Tail is exposed but they should touch 400 mark, Paine is batting with tails, its not a tough task when pitch is good to bat.

Australia posted a decent total on the board and it is in the hands of New Zealand batsman to make an impact in this match and they have a session to go and Australia will be eyeing to pick up some wickets and put pressure on the New Zealand batsman and they have some inform players in their ranks and if they play well then it might end up in a draw, it all depends on how New Zealand play out the final session.

@7788bitcoin If Aus don't get bowled out then i don't think they should bat entire day tomorrow, at least give kiwis 20-25 overs to bat under the lights.

A couple of wickets and the Australian tail is exposed, so New Zealand will be trying their best to restrict them to a low total and it all depends on how the Australians will approach the game, they will be trying to score some quick runs if they loose the wicket of Labuschagne.

i hope Travis Head will build a good partnership as he is also averaging really well above 50

Travis head was looking good but he threw away his wicket after all the hard work.

For now the match is totally a balanced as OZ should be able to reach minimum 350 runs even if they wickets keep falling in regular intervals . Also OZ did not even scored 3 runs per over average. Clarke really played very slow.

Are you talking about any past matches as Clarke retired sometime back Wink

. If you are talking about Smith then he was really taking his time on the crease and so does the rest of the players as it was not an easy pitch to bat. The current scenario is that both the teams does not have any major advantage and New Zealand will put pressure on the tail and try to pick the wickets so that they will have an upper hand but then it all depends upon how New Zealand batsman is able to cope up with the pitch situation as i have no clue who will be winning the match after seeing the first day.

Apology it should have being Smith and not Clarke . OZ are batting well and should score 400 runs as they are 325 for 6 and now depends how well Nz bats and will they able to gain any lead or will OZ bowlers bowl out Nz quickly and take a lead in this innings .

I feel that AUS will aim for huge first innings score because they got settled proper batsmen at the crease,new day will be a challenge but if they can control nerves for the first 10 overs or something then they will day 2 also which could possible result in 400+ runs.OZ have good team as well especially kane williamson but if they lost early wickets then match will be on the hand of Aussies.

Australia will be looking for a big score and Labuschagne will be the key wicket and i hope Travis Head will build a good partnership as he is also averaging really well above 50 but i am sure Tim Paine will declare the innings if the think that it is not helping the team as it was evident with his declaration when Warner was well past his 300 and looking to score further, he made the declaration giving priority to the team rather than individual performance which was a bummer as a Aussie fan, New Zealand have in form batsman and lets see how they can perform in this pitch.

Today Australis was very slow but still good if Labuschagne and Head keep wickets for some time then surely they are going to around 400 which could be good and we can feel result in this test but if New Zealand bowlers done good work and take quick wickets then this could be more interesting as New Zealand batting line up is also in good shape but need to have some good touch on this batting wicket.

What a time this player is having as making third consecutive century is a achievement and truly having best of the time in batting it’s seems . Though Oz have lost 3 wickets but scored 220 runs and averaged wins quite slow which is little lower than 3 per over .

Even though Labuschagne crossed his century you cannot call it a day dominated by the Aussies as they were able to pick wickets when ever it mattered and the morning session is important to determine how long they will bat.

Sri Lanka will Play test series with Pakistan in Pakistan Cricket Stadiums. Test Cricket again back in Pakistan after ten years.
https://www.zerocric.com/pakistan-vs-sri-lanka-live-streaming/

LOL.. the first test got underway two days back and if you check the previous pages there are posts on that match as well. It is a good thing that the Pakistani fans are able to watch their team playing at home after almost a decade. But unfortunately for them, rain is playing spoilsport. Only 86 overs of play was possible during the first two days due to bad weather and the match is very likely to end in a boring draw if there is no miracles during the next three days.

Labuschagne is going to become the backbone of Australian batting in the near future. He is just 25 years old, and has another 10-12 years to make a few batting records for himself. And let's not forget the fact that Labuschagne was born in South Africa, and he decided to shift to Australia due to the racial quota policy in South African cricket. South Africa's loss is Australia's win.

If Labuschagne is able to perform at the same level then he will break many records, in his first few matches he did not make any impact but then when the series against Pakistan came he just elevated his performance to a difference level, earlier he was getting 50s but not able to convert those starts to big centuries but the Pakistan series changed that and he is now in top gear as he is scoring century after century and hope the pressure to perform everytime will not get him.

Marnus Labuschagne continued his form and scored his third consecutive test century which is incredible and both of those innings were above 150 runs but short of reaching a double century and now he has the opportunity to improve that and reach his first test double century if he is able to play the entire day tomorrow and if he is able to play by each sessions then he will accomplish that and unfortunately Smith got out to the trap set by the New Zealand bowlers.

This Labuschagne guy keep stacking runs this year, no matter who are the opponent. Warner and smith failed today despite their good start. Australia still in a good position. Kiwis can claim some victory as well when they took Wade's wicket in the end.
