McMillan doesnt even have a NZ cricket contract this year. And he wasnt ranked in the top 30 players in the country by Braces. I didnt think he deserved to be in the side until his good form this season, but I was a bit shocked that he wasnt in the top 30 players.

Prediction. Aus to struggle early before two of the batsmen, maybe Symonds and Hussey stage a recovery and cruise through in about the 41st over. Just missing the bonus point.

I'm just having a good time. Don't tell me to grow up Pasag, that's just as condescending as what Tubby said
Why should your good time ruin everyone elses? Everyone of your posts contains something distinctly anti-Australian and it’s getting really, really tiring. Honestly you’re turning into quite the troll.

We probably needed more from McCullum/Vettori/Franklin and with more wickets in hand we could have batted out for about 235 runs.

Things could have been brutal if McMillan wasn't given out! Can't really complain though considering what happened before!

The key for NZ is a good start. If Franklin bowls pies once again to Australia then its all over.

Great stuff from Macca. I don't know what it is about it, but watching a short, fat, angry little Cantabrian blast about the best Australia has to offer really makes me proud to be a kiwi.

The fact is that you're getting worked up over the fact that a third-rate commentator didn't congratulate a batsman (who should've been out 50+ runs ago, mind you), even though he did mention that he played pretty well. It's not as if McMillan plays his innings just to get a pat on the back from Mark Taylor. Just get over it and shut up.

I can understand the frustration though. The number of times the Channel 9 team kept replaying the footage of him getting out really started to grate on my nerves. By the end of the innings it seemed like they were doing it everytime he hit a 4. Cameron White should have been given out lbw in the 2nd ODI, but I never saw them replay that footage once.

Still, too much has been made out of this. I'm looking forward to watching what should hopefully be a relatively close run chase.

I have no doubt that if Gilchrist gets a knick early and is given not out, and goes onto make a ton, you will be hard pressed to say it was a great knock.
Gilly would walk :)

None of this matters anyway, we are about to unleash Michael Mason on you poor Australians. Be afraid, be very afraid.
