Cricket: Australia v New Zealand...2nd Test

[PAWAQATSI]

Well....the Kiwis are back for more punishment. I can't believe $1.45 is still available for the Aussies. Last weeks thrashing by an innings + 100 odd is about as bad a cricket whitewash as you can get!!!
The Kiwis can't wave a magic wand and improve. They go down HARD again!!!! :sadwave:

Will stack some of the 1st Test winnings back on the Aussies for this one. Recommend that you do the same!! Even look for some "in running" value if the New Zealanders actually stand up for a session or two.

The World Champs v the dreamers.

The only annoying thing with this bet is that you have to wait 3-4 days to collect on it. :142lmao:

End of play on day 1 sees Australia in total control, cruising to be 3 for 327!!
A very hot day in the Adelaide outfield will zap the Kiwis strength and spirit before they even get a chance to bat.

A score in the high 500's will put this match out of Kiwi reach.

The aussies seem to be cruising again pawa. Wish I had a piece of that $1.45 action. Easy money as long as the weather holds up, and considering we are basically in a drought in Australia, you should be OK!
By the way, how's brissy looking for jan??

End of play on day 2 has the Aussies declaring an end to their 1st innings at 8 out for 575!! A great double-century to Langer :clap:

NZ are 2 for 56 at stumps.

The kiwis won't reach our target even when they bat twice!!!

Lookin' like another trip to 'Cha-ching' $tation! :142lmao:


Bomber...... I'll be in Surfers from about the 11th Jan to around the 22nd mate. Try and hook up if your back over here in time. We'll work it out when it gets closer. :toast:

They didn't let McGrath have another crack at the 50 by the sounds of things pawa! You're right though, the kiwi's are definitely up against it and will struggle to come even close to matching it with the aussies. Hope it continues this way for you pawa.
Will be at home from the 31st of dec. to the 21st of jan. so will make a trip down there mate.

 

[bombercoops]

How's the game looking pawa??

 

[PAWAQATSI]

Almost according to plan Bomber!!

NZ all out for a 1st innings of 251. But instead of sending them back in for their 2nd innings, we have opted to go back in for ours and are none out for 57......a lead of 381 runs. The record highest last innings for victory at the Adelaide oval is 319 odd back in 1901!!!

The only problem I see is possible predicted rain on Tuesday which might allow the Kiwis to bat it out for a draw. I think this has been a tactical risk and we should have sent them in for the follow on. These sheep lovers would never have been able to score another 300 let alone the probable 400+ that we will leave for them to reach. A wet draw is their only saviour. :sadwave:

 

[PAWAQATSI]

On day 4 the Aussies declared their second innings closed at 2 for 139....a lead of 463 impossible runs!!! The Kiwis have gone back in and are 5 out for 149 runs....still 314 behind.

Hopefully the rain won't save them tomorrow on the last day.

Hope the weather permits play to continue for you pawa! Nice odds for the second straight test- and more importantly, nice $$ for your pocket if the weather holds up!

 

[PAWAQATSI]

Aussie avatar at last!!

:clap: :Yep: :jump:

 

[PAWAQATSI]

Game over...just after lunch on day 5. Kiwis all out for a 2nd innings score of 250!! Australia wins by 213 runs. :clap:

Next week Australia play NZ in 3 one-day games. I'll post if the books feel like giving any more free money away!!!

:142lmao:

 

[bombercoops]

Ha! Free money is exactly what that is! Give us a shout if there's any available pawa! Like the avatar also mate! You've done well!

 

[bombercoops]

Pawa, I just got through watching the aussies take on the US in their first ever rugby league game against each other. We were trailing 24-6 at the half and then fought back hard to win 36-24. Would have liked to have seen a money line here somewhere!

 

[PAWAQATSI]

Yeah mate....I caught a little clip of it on the late night news. I reckon they were probably hung over from all the piss they drank on the flight over from their tour of England!! :drinky: :drinky:

They would have got a 'rev-up' at half time and then came out and did the business in the second half. They may also have been told to 'go easy' on the yanks just to get the crowd a little excited before finishing them off!!

A mate said that they played with some modified rules?? And indoors on astroturf!!

World Champs don't lose to fledgling teams too often. I'm glad I didn't see a line on this game otherwise I would have blown some serious $$$$

:142lmao:

 

[bombercoops]

Yeh, I'm sure you're right about the boys being on the piss on the london/new york flight! Not too many doubts about that one- fair enough though after there big win against the british pretenders! The game vs. the US was in Philly at a university ground. It was played outside and on normal grass-cold as shit also! The only altered rules from which I saw were that they had 4x 20 mins quarters in stead of 40 min halves. Guess the americans didn't have the sack to play for that period of time! :142lmao:
