1/382. Kiwis are have a tour to forget. Pitch is a road...again!

Over the whole tour they've taken 20 wickets for over 2000.

1 maiden in 90 overs is horrendous bowling. Their bowlers don't seem to be getting a lot of support from their captain either which probably isn't helping them.

Fawad Ahmed must be thinking he chose the wrong country...would have walked into the NZ team...Craig bowls more nude balls than anyone I have seen and his direction and length are terrible.
The retired Dan Vettori has left a massive hole in that team...

I heard that only 25 of the balls bowled yesterday would have hit the stumpsĀ  :o

The Kiwis have certainly started with more purpose this morning.

Fourth stump line is common defensive move, but takes discipline to execute.

Calling leg spinners. Australia needs you!

Thinking Johnson's days might be nearing the end. Too often under 140k and getting dished up roads after road to bowl on. Last 6 Tests in Australia have been roads. Interesting to see if he pulls the pin after this Test.

Reckon you are right...looked down in mind and body and reckon he has had enough...NZ batters actually looked forward to him coming on in preference to Starc..
Mind you the WACA is no longer a pace bowlers friend and its been hard yakka for every bowler....

That's been really disappointing. I wonder if they're just getting people used to the idea so that when they move to the new stadium with it's drop in pitches it won't be such a change.
