@KiwiMurph That's a lot better than them canning it.

Sucks if you have tickets, but most of us won't.

Feel a bit sorry for the athletes NOT getting to play in packed stadia.

They will truly understand how Australian Rugby players feel.

I've watched a couple of european football games with no crowds and it gives off a weird, weird vibe.

Confirmed.

New Zealand's three-match one-day international series against Australia will be played behind closed doors, Cricket Australia (CA) announced. The Black Caps will now play two matches in an empty Sydney Cricket Ground on Friday and Sunday, with a third match against their trans- Ta$man rivals scheduled for next Friday in Hobart.

Just get the most annoying person you know to play with your stereo for 7 hours. Will like being in the actual stadium.

Kane's luck doesn't follow him when he leaves NZ. Aust wins the toss and surprise, surprise, will bat.

@shark I'm not really expecting them to play two spinners.

What would I know!

Oz however are unleashing Cummins, Starc and Hazlewood on us to open any scabs!

[mariner4life]

Warner back at home, hundred coming up.

NZ to play him into form

And Finch starts with a ball clearly hitting the back of the bat - caught behind - everyone thinks it's out except the umpire - and we don't review.

Acoustics of the empty stadium fooling the umpire?
