Lol Kenya must feel like **** having lost their wickets to this guy
He bowled very well that day. Would have taken a wicket or two today if he'd been on his game. He's just having a shocker today, which he does from time to time.

I still think he'll come good, as long as he stays healthy.

Commentator's current convo is hilarious

"...they picked How over Oram because they wanted extra batting power..."

Dunno what kind of logic they're following.

That's what I thought too. The little I did see of him that day, he looked very different than he does today.

What about Tait, how many extra's, but he took 3 wickets! :huh: His bowling concerns me.
Oh, I thought we were only talking about the batting.

So long as he takes wickets he can give away 7 or 8 wides. The issue is... he doesn't always take wickets.

Anyway, 50 for Watson. New Zealand coming 3rd in this one :wacko:

Watson is a legend, tore the Poms apart in the 7 game series this summer and is doing his job in the World Cup.

This is the best i've seen Australia play since the Champions Trophy, positive signs.
You know we have lost the last 18 of 20 games or something right? I wouldn't read to much our of this. I still have Australia as winning the cup though.

Wahay, dot ball! Well-directed and quick bouncer, too.

Hey, we've got nothing else to celebrate.

Bennett's never going to be very consistant, not at this stage of his career anyway. But you'd have to put today's performance (well I am anyway) down to trying too much. This is the quickest he's bowled since he's come into this New Zealand, he and even Southee for that matter were probably both told to run in and bowl as quick as possible on what is a pretty flat track. Unfortunately it's gone pretty badly.
