Starc not happy, two dropped catches off his bowling. Just joined the 160km club.

I'm wondering if Johnson will retire this series. Just getting a feeling watching him he's lost that something and at 34 won't get it back. World cricket will miss his pace because what he did to England was fantastic at highlighting the demise of modern batsmen and it was a joy to watch a genuinely quick bowler in full flight. That's what test cricket is about.

[Jenko]

I think it will either be this one or after the windies series. He ha said he thinks about retirement everyday so I'd say it's definitely coming.

Cmon the Kiwi's!!

We now have the lead.

[potzy248]

Quote from Mike Hussey "The Kiwi's are probably in front now". As we move onto a massive 33 run lead. So he's not 100% sure the Kiwi's are in front.

NZ should continue batting till the close of play. Might as well fill your boots with runs on this track!

[Vic Nicholas]

No but I remember the Ben Stokes one. It's what we expect from the Aussies Also  Throwing  the ball at a batsman is not on you could see Starc had 3 stumps to aim at  fined 50 percent of his match is a joke should have been banned.

Hypocrite.

Like that douche Broad doesn't throw balls at the batsman.

In fact, I do not remember any outrage on here at all when he clocked that Pakistani batsman back in 2010.

You were all too busy with your head in the sand.

Just a reminder...

Barking up the wrong tree Vic. Not even the English like Broad most of the time (apart from when he gets 8-15 and bowls out Australia by lunch - then he's a legend for 5 minutes).

You are a notable exception Saunders.

Some on here behave like pratts.

Anyways, the pitches in Australia have been deadened since the 2003-04 Indian tour down under.

It is all about 5 day test matches and Indian broadcasting dollars.

Booooorrrrring.

Now broads a prat, everyone knows it. Hopefully he'll be replaced as soon a s possible

Shaun Marsh added to replace injured Khawaja... Are Australia struggling that badly for young batsmen?

[potzy248]

Bancroft et al must be spewing. Shaun Marsh again?

[lazza32]

Hopefully this will be Marsh's last chance.

No.

Marsh just gets more opportunities than anyone.

Does this sound like a nation struggling for young batsmen?

If the side was a bit more experienced, I have no doubt they would have gone for a younger option.
