Which they wouldn’t gotten the chance to do if they had been dropped as per your demands. Fortunately the Aussie selectors are willing to back their players in and were justly rewarded.

It was the ball before Head got out. Regulation chance.

Let’s not forget Labs 90 in the first innings as well. Was pretty handy

Oh yes I forgot Lawry was dropping Lab as well.
Its now Head at $1.01 to star in our next test.

He would want to, his batting has been below poor for a while now since that big innings.
I thought the run chase was too large especially after the top order slumped to 5/80 and then again when Mitch departed. Credit to Marsh, Carey and Cummins for hanging in. Great debut by Sears and good work also by Henry. Top test.

New Zealand always seem to fall just short and end up as that team that people feel sorry for. Whether it by World Cup Finals or in big tests it so often ends in tears.

Welfare check necessary for the NZ commentators.

I’m sure that @theDJR will be able to predict our finish within the 24 hour period prior to our last game…just like he did here

Cummins lifted with bat and ball in the second half of this Test.
Well done Carey and VOSS, humiliation averted. Thankfully the kiwis can’t catch.
Top order still pathetic.
Eat a bag of sh*t kiwi commentators.
Stuff 'em. They were barracking harder and harder as the match went on. They largely forgot that there were 2 teams out there, and despite their efforts behind the mics, Aus won. You wouldn’t know if it you just went on their commentary.

And Carey gets Man of the Match.
On the podium to accept the award, he takes a minute to thank @Lawry for his unwavering support.

How does a Test nation that good not have a win against us for that long?
