What kind of horrendous sportsmanship did the Australians exhibit?
Some people have the habit of bringing out the wrong meaning of everything. Ross
Taylor responded it well by describing the whole incident as just a
coincidence. Taylor said, “When I get out I just walk off the ground as quick
as I can," Taylor said when asked if he felt aggrieved that no members of
the rival team came to offer their congratulations as he returned to the NZ dressing
room. I don’t want to stay out there any longer than I have to”.
Will you just shut up now?
Move on!
By the way, the Australians responded positively despite losing an early wicket. Steve Smith and Adam Voges batted with intent to put Australia in a such a position from where they are well and safe and I can’t foresee them tumbling to defeat. Matt Henry inflicted painful blows in Smith’s right-arm as a welt and bruise appeared below his elbow, but it didn’t stop Smith from cracking three boundaries off Henry’s final over of the day.
The man is brave.
But Ross Taylor deserved a triple ton. He was just ten runs
away from the milestone. In reaching 290, Taylor passed Reginald 'Tip' Foster's
long-standing mark of 287, set while batting for England at the Sydney Cricket
Ground in December 1903. It has been his first century in two years, and is the
highest Test score ever made by a New Zealander away from home and the
third-highest overall. In all, Taylor
batted for 567 minutes, faced 374 balls and hit 43 fours – the most ever hit in
a Test innings in Australia.
