Aaargh, that was a pretty bad ball to go out on, too. Don't think Hussey was really at the top of his game today. Personally, I don't think NZ will chase down 260-270 tonight, so if the Kiwi bowlers can peg Australia down here (and it's a distinct possibility if they can get into that tail), they can keep themselves in this.
Wicket maiden from Franklin.

Symonds gets his 50. Hope he starts smashing.

McCullum's standing up to Franklin!
Not sure that the running between the wickets is going to be as solid between Clarke and Symonds. I think Symmo's confidence in his partner isn't going to be as high - IIRC, they've had a bit of a tendency towards mixups.
Someone please tell me, was it just me or did I hear chants of Sachin 5 mins ago!?
*sigh* God, the site's sluggish. It's taking around three to four minutes for me to submit a post at the moment.
That was as plumb as you can get. If you dont give those out you might as well not have an LBW law. Disgraceful decision by that senile old coot.Originally Posted by Slow Love™
haha was just gonna say the same thing
When Lou Vincent drops a catch you start to wonder if it's not NZ's day.
I made a thread, typed up a lot. Never loaded and the thread was never created.
And as I write this, Symonds is bowled.
Symonds losing his rythm here, and Clarke not able to find his. Gonna have to get a real hustle on now if they're going to get around 260.
As to the slow over-rates, I'm a bit confused about this. Obviously Australia ran way overtime the other night, and the Kiwis have here - are teams no longer being penalised for this? Can't make any sense out of the ICC's treatment of this issue.
Brilliant bowling by Bond.
That's a big wicket. Having said that though, Brett Lee can hit the ball a long way.
So with Symmo out, chances of a 260 total are likely gone. I'd probably be happy with 240 or so now, and I reckon the Kiwis would give themselves a chance.
Mills coming in at the death always leads to a nervous few minutes for NZ supporters. Holding my breath here in his last two overs.
