Half time aus are only 6 up

go kiwis!

doh

blackcaps redeem us

 

[GGG]

maybe a good thing I couldn't watch it, back to the more important game, go the black caps.

 

[Perm]

Hoping for somewhat of a redemption from the Black Caps tonight after ther ANZAC Test. We're a bit short on batting with McCullum at 6 although our bowling shouldn't rely too much on McMilllan or Styris to get through some overs.

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

Aussie win the toss and bat.

Don't think NZ would mind chasing

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

Bond out!

We got no chance of limiting Aussie to under 300

 

[Perm]

Hopefully get to see some Gilchrist magic, while Bond rips through the rest of the Australian batsman. I just want the best of both worlds.

 

[Perm]

Just a rest for Bond then? Hopefully nothing more serious, but I'm sure we would have heard about it already. My pick is for Michael Mason to get smashed around the park by Hayden and Gilchrist if they are still around when he comes onto bowl.

No Bond matey!!

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

Bowling lineup of Franklin, Mason, Gillespie doesnt look good.

And chasing we are minus Oram. Our top order will have to stick in there for atleast 15-20 overs for us to chase down Aussies 331/4

 

[Perm]

Be interesting to see how Gillespie goes with the new ball, I'm not sure whether he has taken it before in his ODI career and I would be inclined to give it to him, see if he can get any movement.

Very annoying!

Resting Bond might prove to be counterproductive, and considering the talk in the media last week by the Black Caps saying that they will play their best available 11XI, very strange......

 

[GGG]

Why no bond? man i hope it isn't serious.

Injury concern!! Fleming said he wanted to play best XI but it wasnt worth risky Bond. Said he was at the doctors.

 

[GGG]

Cr@p there goes our chance if he is out for good.

 

[pup11]

Good to see Watto back for the Aussies i hope he makes an impact in this WC.

 

[Laurrz]

bond injured, thought he was resting! i was starting to get pissed haha

but still... damn..

 

[MoxPearl]

Aleast with us batting second we have a chance if aussie get 350

 

[MoxPearl]

is bond SICK not Injured ?

 

[GGG]

Apparently a gastric problem, hopefully just feeling a bit off.
