Come on guys don't be so harsh on the aussies it just was not their day, if they would have fielded first we could have been saying the same things about the black caps!!

Bing and Pup flown home

team for second match given the squad

Hayden
Jaques
Hodge
Hussey
Haddin
Voges
White
Johnson
Tait
Bracken
McGrath

doubt they'd go with that team but i would... of course with no Watto we'll have to rely on Hodge/White/Voges to bowl the 10 overs.. and from what ive heard about Voges' bowling.. hes quite handy

dunno about you guys but that team looks so much better

Great win for the Black casps, superb effort all around even with Oram's injury which coul be a major blow.

Whilst I understand that there is an agreement between the 2 countries to play this tournament every year, you have to question going through with it before the wc.

Oram has a fractured finger

Lee is less than a 50% chance to make the cup according to the doctor

Clarke is on his way home, so he's obviously shot

Administrators need to learn their players arent robots and need a rest from time to time

Anyway, today was just one of those days - saw the first dozen or so overs of the Kiwi innings and there must have been at least 25 play and misses.

Another day, another result.

Great stuff from Gavin Larsen during the post-match; he couldn't contain himself. Absolutely rub it in. Loved Hussey's "We can't get any worse... hopefully" comment.

Awesome bowling from Shane "Australian killer" Bond. WHAT A CATCH!!!

Vincent hitting a six to win the game so emphatically... amazing to watch the confidence that has come into his game. Ten-wicket smashing of Australia (A)... gotta love it. Even we don't lose THAT badly.

I have no humility in this situation. Take that, Australia!

All these injuries within the aussie camp is really a bad omen just before the world cup. Aussie are also going the same way england did after winning the ashes in terms of injuries and drop in performance graph. Is this something like an ashes jinx?

pup, your right, fleming was indeed lucky to win the toss and field. But, you have to admit that the New Zealand bowled extremely well

Little point in picking Jaques, Voges and White but not Watson, given Watson is going to the WC and those three aren't. Watson isn't going to get his form back by carrying drinks.
