Sports Black Caps

We, for whatever reason, mentally disintegrate when playing Australia in Test Matches.

I'm sure many of us had the pleasure of watching the partnership referenced a lot yesterday between Jason Gillespie and Glen McGrath (114 for 10th wicket), how the hell can we let that happen again.

I find it sad really because it is performance in these matches that matter most to the future of Test cricket for use - I will never forget how engrossed I was at 11 years old in our 2000/2001 tour of Australia (we drew all three matches and really should have won the series). That series was the dawn of a lifelong love of Test Cricket - beating up on Sri Lanka / Pakistan is not the same!

Frankly we're bloody cooked when you consider the only captain alternative is Latham who is on steady decline too
 
Will it surprise anyone if Lyon goes on to get 40 or 50?

Already up to 21 n.o.

Any chance the weather will save us?
They will need some of the forecast rain to arrive today, otherwise there will be way too much time between the rain patches to get a result. It was supposed to arrive by midday which hasn't happened yet.
