20th Match - New Zealand v Australia

Re - Baz, I wonder if the x-ray is going to show the injury, the swelling might prevent the radiologist to assess it properly for a few days. Might play with one arm if he has to.

He's out so we don't need to worry about that right now. put some ice on the inflammation and then get it xrayed.

We only have Bangladesh and Afghanistan left after this, so hopefully he can rest up for a couple of weeks and be right for the Quarters.

Man, that was a nasty blow McCullum took. Just saw a replay. It swelled really fast. I hope it's not a break or something. Could spell the end of his WC. :-(

Agreed. No need to risk him if the injury more than just a bruise.

Bloody hell, get in the car to go down the coast and by the time I've picked my wife up from work and got a coffee (about 30 mins), we'd gone from 4~90 odd to 9~100 odd.

Only good thing to come out of it was that we got more than England did...but can't use being beaten by a succession of cracking outswingers as an excuse.

Actually, I'll add the 6 wickets Starc's about to take to the good things too.

If it was a break there's no way McCullum could've spent the next 15 minutes hitting Johnson for 6. He'll be OK.

NZ to win by 5 wickets imo.

Just saw Johnson's dismissal. If Broad copped some flack for the way he got out then Mitch wasn't any better.

The Aussie pace battery looks bloody good. Shame for them that they're defending so little.

 

[Grasshopper]

Go, Black Caps!

 

[Cabinet96]

Oh boy.

 

[BackFootPunch]

Well then. Who's getting nervous now? Save us Kane.

 

[Spikey]

Slater calls Starc as he runs into bowl and then tries to say Johnson has taken the wicket. great work.

 

[James]

Ok.....The Aussies will win this by 30 runs now.

 

[Spark]

omg

Maybe its a good thing. This total means the game will be done inside 30 overs either way so their best bowlers will operate throughout the innings.

 

[kiwiviktor81]

Elliott gone. Do we have a game now?

 

[Flem274*]

eep

 

[Swingpanzee]

Holy

 

[Son Of Coco]

Ho ho ho...now this is interesting. Could be over by the end of the next.

Cracking ball!
