Groundhog Day at Brisbane Wisden CricInfo staff - November 12, 2001
This Brisbane Test followed a strikingly similar pattern to the last one between these sides in Australia, at Hobart in 1997-98. That one featured a declaration from Stephen Fleming when behind (at 251 for 6 after Australia's 400), a run-chase (288 off 61 overs then, 284 off 57 now), and a nailbiting finish (NZ finished at 223 for 9 then). Other similarities included a duck for Fleming, and a hundred by a left-handed Australian opener called Matthew (Elliott in 1997-98, Hayden this time).
