***Official*** New Zealand in South Africa

[Adamc]

Great catch.

 

[Natman20]

I will be very disappointed if New Zealand lose this now. Its theres for the taking but they seem to be making it harder for themselves

 

[Natman20]

With that wicket I think New Zealand are now going to get beaten. What a pathetic

Well, Lou Vincent has just made up his mind that his opinion of his team-mates is about the same as yours

 

[PY]

With Vincent there and Vettori still in, there's a fair chance. 66 isn't that much and the run-rate is far from taxing if they're sensible.

Bad decision.

Good indication of why we need the help of technology.

 

[Blaze]

That was an awful decision.

 

[Natman20]

I can't believe how badly New Zealand have thrown this match away. I am very annoyed, this target should not be a problem for New Zealand. Its going to be hard for New Zealand to win this series now.

He was out LBW.

 

[luckyeddie]

He was out LBW.

He was two balls before

 

[Pratters]

South Africa hasnt exactly bowled very well but find the score 139/7.

No complains

 

[luckyeddie]

That was an awful decision.

I agree, but when I saw/heard it live, I thought it was nailed-on certain. Only when it was slowed down did you see the bat hit his boot to create the second noise.

The McCullum one was dubious as well. Anyhow we have stuffed this up on our own. I am sure if the umpires hadn't have helped us out we still would have managed to throw away our wickets.

Vincent batted superbly but his innings would have meant so much more if he had have carried us to victory.

We are still a chance with Mills and Adams to come but it's about 70/30 to SA.

 

[Pratters]

Langeveldt you hero!

1 wicket to go now for a 2-0 lead.

 

[Natman20]

I want sixes mills!!!

 

[open365]

looking at Vincent tongihts,it amazes me that he only averages 25,and with a 172 aswell.

A typical inconsistent New Zealand batsman
Hes good on his day but that doesnt happen often

4 sixes would do it to be precise. But Mills is no Kapil Dev

 

[Pratters]

India take a 2-0 lead.

RSA take a 2-0 lead.

Life is good.

 

[meatspx]

Thrown it away.

Looking back I think the likes of McMillan and Oram didn't play positvely enough, set the tone for the rest of the innings.
