Title: boxing day cricket
Post by: smilley792 on December 26, 2014, 08:29:43 AM

Boxing day cricket!


I see Mccullum is practicing for the odi WC as he hit 195 of 140 odd balls including 11 sixes in the test vs Sri Lanka. 

By racking up 45 for7 in one day!!


Australia threw away a good start. They were 90 for 1 when I went to bed. But despite rodgers abd watson both to 50 after lunch they fell soon after.
New guy burns only made 13. Aussie half rescued by Smith once again on 74*

If India can clean up the tail. They could be in a great position to set up a win!



And big bash. See car berry has been dropped to 3 due to (slow scoring in 1st game". That's a knee jeep reaction ain't it??

Mustn't much childish comment about the name of the Sri Lankan number 6.

kiwis looking like a good all round outfit.

Watched a bit of the SA/WI game earlier, thought the windies bowling attack looked woeful.  Didn't think much of the fielding either.

Not been a lot said about this game so far.

New Zealand 441 all out in their 1st innings.
McCullum 195
Neesham 85
Williamson 54

Sri Lanka 138 all out and follow on enforced.
Matthews 50 only real resilliance.

Sri Lanka now 325-8, lead of 22.

Game, set & match New Zealand me thinks

Shame they won't wrap it up before the aus game starts otherwise I can watch both.


New zealand have been impressive last few test series.

Staggering Eranga and Lakmal have added 51 for the last wicket. Lead up to 96. Another 25/40 runs and it would be squeaky bum time for the Kiwis!

Trent Boult ends the innings and finishes  with 4/100.

NZ need 105 to win.
