Cairns in, Fleming out
Saturday, November 15 2003
Chris Cairns will be hoping to improve on his 100% success rate as captain of the New Zealand ODI team by being appointed captain in place of the injuried Stephen Fleming for tonight's 'semi-final' against India at Hyderbad.
Fleming has been battling a sternum injury for the last week weeks and was declared unfit, as with Paul Hitchcock who has been having hamstring problems for the last two weeks.
Cairns previous captaincy experience was at Syndey when New Zealand beat Australia in the 01/02 season when Fleming was a late withdrawal.
