In one day NZ bowlers have gone from Test cricket quality to Park cricket quality.

Henry is there best, still beating the bat and getting movement. Other than him not much happening

what exactly is the point of the extra 30 mins when these 2 don't even look like getting out

I may rue these words but..

The Kiwis have no problem knocking over the Wallabies..neither does anyone really, but that’s beside the point..but when it comes to Test cricket the roles are completely reversed. They just don’t have a clue how to beat the Aussies.

I think it’s fair to say we are an absolute cricketing juggernaut at present. Across all disciplines too.

It ain’t just recent. There have been 18 series between the two. Australia have most wins, winning 11. While the Kiwis have won 3. The remaining 4 series have ended in draws.

The last time the Black Caps won a series outright was back in 1989/90. The last time they held the trophy was in 1992/93 as it was a drawn series and NZ were defending champs. That is 35 years and 32 years respectively. Actually, in the last 30 years they only won one test, in Hobart 2011. Even the Wallabies win a couple of games every now and then against the All Blacks.

NZ are lucky it’s generally a best of 2. Would be 50 tests to us if we played 3 or 4
