Australia sent a second-string side to New Zealand and the Blackcaps feasted on the new-look team in the opening T20 clash, storming to a 53-run win in Christchurch.
Australia lost captain Aaron Finch, T20 international debutant Josh Philippe, wicketkeeper-batsman Matthew Wade and the dangerous Glenn Maxwell inside five overs, as the away side plummeted to 4-19. Star batsman David Warner joined the Fox Cricket commentary box for the clash and said post-match that Australia had some major problems to address.
"You've just got to go back to the drawing board and ... go back to your plans and see what you did wrong and see if you can learn from your dismissals.
Finch has to go
Another condescending headline that doesn’t benefit cricket
Second string lol..........
2nd string, lol. These are the best of the BBL, the future of our 20/20 team. They just didn't adapt to the NZ conditions. Wade has to go, there's 3 other keepers in the squad, that can all bat.
That is why the team should be known as Australia A
Stay classy
“2nd String”...man, wonder how the players feel about being called that....?
Says a lot about the um quality of the big bash
No excuses now

How about a couple yorkers in the death ? Did he mention that at all ?
