Doesn't seem like too much of a fun place to bowl at, lolOuch.
Although if I remember correctly, Aorangi Oval is remarkably small. If we make 300 in reply, I'll be happy.

Yes but rather harsh to be discarded after a single attempt. His style of batting is not conducive to producing consistent results, he can be hit and miss, but when he hits he can win you a game few players are capable of.

I didn't mean anything by it, I was just saying CD had already given him a shot up the order.

Predictions for the HRV cup?
Mine
Winner: Northern Districts
Runner-up: Canterbury
Top Run Scorer: Peter McGlashan
Top Wicket Taker: Daniel Vettori
Worst Team: Central Districts
Flop: Owais Shah
Picking ND to rebound this season, we have the best bowling line-up IMO and our batting with the likes of Flynn, McGlashan, Parlane, Williamson and Yovich should be more then handy. Plus once Dilshan get's here which is around round five I think? we should be very well set then.
Canterbury should also have a pretty good run, they've shown in the recent week or so they're capable of putting up some pretty big scores with the likes of Stewart, Papps, Myburgh and Fulton, heck even Nicol can hit a ball. They have some pretty handy all-rounders also so they should have quite a few bowling options.

I believe I went there circa 1989. My memory of said game isn't great, but I did enjoy the nice sloping banks.

Sorry about that. I didn't notice either until just before I made that post, and the ground impressed me more than the fact that T20 was on TV so I considered it more worth commenting on.

Has Bopara always run up from the edge of the pitch? And does he do so when he takes the new ball for Auckland?

Why are you apologising? I realised from your post that you must have been watching it on the box, so thanks!
Is Luke Vivian going to be playing this year does anyone know?

Sweet. Gives me something to do whilst I paint the window frame next to the TV which I've pencilled in for tomorrow!

lol, Vettori gets Bopara with the straight-break of doom in his first over.

wow, PERFECT last over by Southee. Makes me wonder how he got hammered so bad by Napier the other day. Can't believe Auckland batting Tuffey ahead of Hira. Hira and Martin imo should be battling for NZ's 2nd T20/ODI spinner spot....
