    Most Overrated Player?

    I dont think Kournikova is overrated, actually, she's underrated. Almost everyone says she sucks at tennis. I don't think thats right either, because she was number 7 in the world last year, and anyone who gets into the top 10 in the world must be a pretty decent player. She also has to handle...

    NZ's Top One-Day of the past 20 years

    McMillan is a superb test batsman (average over 40) but his one day record is nowhere near as good.

    Wow, 563!! That easily beats my record of 326.

    The VB Series

    Well then, that's quite a satisfactory result for NZ then, isn't it?

    Shane Warne

    Did you see Shane Warne get hit in the eye by one of the Australia players during the celebration for a wicket during the test against South Africa? It was quite amusing :)

    Music

    In NZ ODIs, batsmen choose music that plays as they walk out to bat. What would you choose? I would choose Crawling by Linkin Park.

    how will new zealands test squad vary from their ODI squad

    I'm pretty sure Franklin will get in the squad ahead of Martin, as Martin has been very expensive in his ODI career so far. I hope to see Jacob Oram back in the ODI squad too.

    how will new zealands test squad vary from their ODI squad

    It's pretty close...Harry's getting a bit older now, and Vincent is still quite young. But with both of them in the team, we will have a strong fielding side, with McMillan, Fleming, Astle and Vettori all good in the field. Rich

    how will new zealands test squad vary from their ODI squad

    I wouldn't be suprised if they tried Vincent as a wicketkeeper. He has kept wicket successfully for Auckland before. That would be a bit disappointing though, because I believe he is the best fielder in New Zealand and it would be bad to lose his enthusiasm and ability. Rich

    Funny Commentary Quotes

    I heard a similar one from Richie Benaud in the last test...he said 'There are a lot of hookers around the world.'

    Umpire Robinson

    The performance by umpire Robinson in the 3rd test was absolutely shocking. He made terrible decisions against both sides. Those 2 caught behind ones on the off side (one was Warne in the 1st innings, the other S.Waugh in the 2nd inns) were so obvious, there was a noise and the only objects in...

    Funny Commentary Quotes

    And when India were chasing a total set by New Zealand, he said to Martin Crowe 'You'd better reach for your hanky, you'll be crying very shortly...' and 'They are going to make mince meat of the Kiwis...' New Zealand won that match :)

    Franklin

    I have no idea why James Franklin isn't in Australia with the New Zealand squad, he is a better bowler than Bond, and more experienced at international level, and 6 years younger than Bond too. Plus, if he was in Australia, Auckland might have won the Max Final Rich

    Cricket Max!

    It is fun watching Cricket Max, but I worry that it might teach promising young test or ODI prospects to throw away their wickets. Rich

    What a game!

    I think the declarations were very good and made a certain draw into an exciting finish. The New Zealanders should have gained some respect in Australia after that match, and Stephen Fleming showed that he is one of the best captains, even if NZ aren't the top team. This series has already...

    How about if Langer had been given out 4th ball of the match?

    International Cricket Captain

    ICC2 was great game, and the improvement from ICC to ICC2 was probably the biggest improvement between any games in the series. However, there was one terrible statistical bug. Have you noticed that in matches that are simulated, the wicketkeepers never take catches? With the editor, ICC2...

    Australia vs New Zealand tour

    If that ball where Cairns was caught by Ponting on the boundary had cleared the rope...Ah well, it goes down in history as a draw. Rich

    What a game!

    It was a great last day...I really should have spent that time studying for School C (not far away now :() but instead I watched the cricket... Anyway, it was the best finish to a test match that I've seen in a long time. With Cairns and McMillan at the crease, a NZ victory looked possible, but...
