Haven't seen his hairdo but surprised he isn't getting a game tbh, no space for leggies thus far in the tournament!

Surprised by how empty Edgbaston is! Thought they had sold 90% of all tickets?

I guess they have to spread the games around but a Trans/Tasman game really should be at the Oval; you'd have fans from both sides 15 minutes down the road in Clapham/Balham/Battersea blahblahblah.

That's the problem with 10:30 starts - takes a while for people to get to the ground etc.
Only 2 D/N games this tournament...what a shame. ICC more worried about asian TV coverage

Strange how Mitchell McClenaghan never gets much of a look in with NZ nowadays, he had a great IPL I thought, is he in the squad does anyone know?

About time ronchi got some runs against the aussies :D. Got to feel for latham but right move to open with ronchi given how well he batted in the warm ups

Doesn't look like we're going to get many teams skittled.

Average runs per wicket so far - 80.

(Would be closer to 90 if Roy remembered which end of the bat to use)

Think NZ got it wrong by sending taylor in - should've sent one of the hitters in. Probably cost them 20-30 runs

Extremely poor finish. 7 for 37...they got there batting order wrong.

One positive is that the aussies have left lynn out - odd leaving the biggest hitter in the game out

Shocking omission imo. I presumed he was carrying an injury or something.
