I miss Flynn already.

I don't.

He's just not a very good player - and he's thirty. It is pointless to keep persisting with a guy who just doesn't look like it, and hasn't since making his debut.

2007.

2007.

He was good before that too, he was going to win a game for us against SL (in 2006 I think it was) until Cairns ran him out on 110-odd.

Two best batsmen at the crease

 

[stephen]

I thought the lineup had Vettori at 6, Mills at 7 with the tail comprising of the other 3 bowlers.

EDIT: Oh I'm pretty bad at maths when I want to be.

 

[mccullum42]

I don't.



2007.

he didn't even make the Nd side for the domestic final yesterday, if he can;t make that then why was he in the Black Caps?

 

[TT Boy]

14 overs of the some of the worst batting you are likely to see. Absolutely no intent.

Good thing that Australia's answer to Mark Ealham is into the attack.

I don't miss Flynn. I think he's a crap ODI player. Good test prospect though.

 

[99*]

I don't.

Would rather him at 4 than Fulton at 3.

Australia favourites now with the TAB, $1.70 to $2.05.

Taylor has to be 4 though IMO.

exactly

 

[Prince EWS]

Do you think he should?

Be in the team, or have more chance than Noffke of making the team?

I'd have Heal in the squad ahead of Hauritz, probably wouldn't play him every game though.

I'm not sure if I'd have Noffke in ODI contention or not TBH. His one day domestic record is pretty poor, but he hasn't actually played a lot of one dayers for Queensland since his big improvement as a bowler and he's looked the part whenever he's played since then, so it's a toss-up. The fact that he's played bugger all cricket this season would probably lead to me leaving him out, although I definitely do think he'd be a better bet for Hopes's current role of playing as a frontline bowler and batting 8 than Hopes.

I'd rather Fulton with one ODI 100 and numerous fifties ahead of someone who averages under 20.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Hurrah, a drop and run!

 

[_Ed_]

Taylor's quick. I thought he would have been out if Clarke had hit there but looking at the replays I think he would have made it.

I'm sure everyone posting over in the tennis thread will be interested.

There's a separate thread in the Sports Forum for that, mate.

Welcome, by the way.

I'm watching the score here with the cricket on TV. Nice arrangement.
