The only downside for Australia is that Bird hasn't looked particularly threatening - he's gone for 5 an over despite the clatter of wickets. So much for horses for courses, at least so far.
Looks like Australia will be batting before tea.
Bird has conceded runs everytime he's come on.
Most of the wickets have been wafts. Mostly lack of discipline, some provoked by a build up of pressure. Mostly NZ were unwilling to give the first session to the bowlers.

Thought Kiwis might have got away with that with no hot spot...
Hmm.
the shape of the wave on RTS wasnt that of an edge
normally they are narrow and tall, that was wide and short, not sure what the noise could have been other than an edge though as the bat was knowhere near the pad
