Game time.

Loving all the pre-match BS hyping Aus up as favourites

Backing McCullum to rip into the Aussies hard here.

Should be hardcore.

From an American...

GO NEW ZEALAND!!!!

Not to spite Australia but to see the pure joy of Kiwis. If Australia win, it will be just another tick in the box - mission accomplished. If Kiwis win, it will be something they cherish for the rest of their lives.

During the NZ anthem I couldn't help but think it was like this game was being played in India

I like them both...sums up the respective countries perfectly for mine. Australia's slightly more upbeat, NZ's slightly more understated and modest.

The Australian anthem was over shadowed by Clarke's OD retirement ftr
