A mud T20, there's a thought.

All we need now are a few chicks in bikinis.

I'm happy with the guys.

In bikinis?

Jeez, Aus is a funny place.

We're a crazy bunch. But get a few Castles flowing and I'm sure some frat boys have been known to become bra-wearing hairy backs. Cool

They're playing? Really?

Wow, they are!

Think Big skully.

4-168. A fairish total after a crabby start. Top knock by Callum Ferguson and pretty good effort by Haddit to hold the innings together.

If we can get McCullum early, we might be a show.

Bowling looks fairly strong tonight.

More inspired captaincy from Vettori. That Diremanti guy gets smashed around but gets a second over, Southee who bowled shyte all innings gets his full quota of five yet the parsimonious Mills only gets four and the ex-Saffer bowls his two overs in niggardly fashion yet gets yanked out of the attack. This follows is equally inspiring decision to send us in the other day on a featherbed under sunny skies.

by skully Fri 13 Feb 2009, 10:17

Mills pulled a calf muscle and limped off.

by skully Fri 13 Feb 2009, 10:22

Another rain delay. Snoozers already reduced to 20 overs. Tubby suggesting that under D/L the target may even go up!!! WTF??? Shocked

by OP Tipping Fri 13 Feb 2009, 10:23

FMD how stupid is Tubbs?

"I think you'll find this target will go _up_, I mean they take account of the fact that Australia only lost 4 wickets..."

You were a fkn captain of how many ODIs?

by OP Tipping Fri 13 Feb 2009, 10:24

GAWN!

by Guest Fri 13 Feb 2009, 10:25

Oh dear!

by skully Fri 13 Feb 2009, 10:25

Milf gets the danger man early. 1-2.

by skully Fri 13 Feb 2009, 10:38

I spoke too soon. Two rubbish overs concede 35 and the Snoozers are cantering.

Where's the farkin rain??? Cool

by freddled gruntbuggly Fri 13 Feb 2009, 10:38

Now we just have to get the other four danger men . . .

by tac Fri 13 Feb 2009, 10:47

Yeah, kiwis enjoying the wether . . .

by Guest Fri 13 Feb 2009, 11:32

37 from 40 required now. Could be close.

by JKLever Fri 13 Feb 2009, 11:35

WTF is Diamante?

by Guest Fri 13 Feb 2009, 11:38

It's fake diamonds and makes up most of my jewelery collection.

Rain spoils the fun.

by skully Fri 13 Feb 2009, 11:38

And rain may have saved Aus.

by OP Tipping Fri 13 Feb 2009, 11:40

Three stupid things said by nine's commentators during this match...

1/ Tubby's stupid comment about the revised total noted above

2/ Benaud saying that if the 20 overs is not completed that this match will be determined by D/L ... (in fact if there aren't 20 overs it is a NR)

3/ Heals saying that there was no need for the NZers to push the runrate so hard ... given that they didn't get to the required total because of the rain, it is clear that if they wanted a chance they needed to push the runrate even _harder_

by OP Tipping Fri 13 Feb 2009, 11:41

NZ robbed. They were the better side in the match, and in the series.

by tac Fri 13 Feb 2009, 11:42

Yeah, OP, think the lads got a bit carried away and started thinking it was a T20 game . . .
