We're cruising with a couple of overs to bowl and that superstar Shane Watson is bowling the second ball of his last over, he's got five balls to bowl at Mark Gillespie, a batsman who has a stellar average of 11 at a strike rate of 58. The result..14 runs off the last five balls and the Black Caps are back in the game. Fantastic bowling that.

Last over arrives and Nathan Bracken needs to restrict the wicketkeeper and the number 11 to seven runs off the last over. Bracken bowls Australia's 119th full toss of the game and we are OUT OF HERE IT IS OFF THE RESERVATION.

**** sake hit the ******* pitch.

Perhaps our American fielding coach has had an influence on the bowling as well. Is it that these bowlers just can't bowl yorkers or are low full tosses what they're trying to bowl?

If it was a baseball game we would have won
Most of GILLESPIES shots would have been fouls

Same goes for the 2nd match - Watson bowled heaps of full tosses there as well. Lucky not to get carted for more than he did.

What a great last few balls by Bracken. What a great ball that knee high full toss was.
