GROUP C - New Zealand, Sri Lanka, Kenya

[Athlai]

First time I've seen SL's new outfit, Sri India?

 

[Athlai]

A hard chance dropped there, McCullum needs to settle down a little here.

 

[Athlai]

McCullum put down again.

Fernando getting a pat on the bum everytime he bowls a dot ball here.

 

[James]

This is so frustrating, good bowling by Sri Lanka, but Vincent and McCullum need to start having a go. It takes more than singles.....

 

[James]

Yay, McCullum is out, thank goodness for that.

McCullum has a go and is gone, Fulton to have a huge knock here.

 

[James]

We're playing Test cricket here

 

[pasag]

Another wicket, NZ need to bat alot better than this to have a chance in this game and the rest of the tournament.

 

[Athlai]

We're playing Test cricket here

You must be kidding we NEVER play test cricket.

Is it just me or is it that the more internationals Fulton plays the better he appears to play.

 

[James]

You must be kidding we NEVER play test cricket.

Hahah - true

 

[Athlai]

A mistake from Kumar, haven't seen one of those in a while.

*Fulton I love you.

* With all this turn I think we my regret not adding Patel (and even N McCullum), though SL are very good players of spin.

* Lou expects a score near 200, gotta love that attitude. "Go over, go over." One of my favourite cricketers.

*50 from 24 balls, just the kick in the arse we needed.

 

[Athlai]

Styris was unlucky but McMillan you old coot, you should have dived.

 

[James]

Predications on a total?

145 for me.

 

[Athlai]

160 here, I feel Malinga's going to handle us but Oram (or Taylor) will blow away the bowler at the other end.

 

[Athlai]

No idea how Oram managed to pick that up, very nice stroke. Amazing how few boundaries NZ have hit in comparison to the score they have. 54 boundary runs from 141.

 

[Days of Grace]

Jeez, that new left-armer for Sri Lanka was dire.

Bond has to knock the top off here. Gillespie/Martin will be cannon-fodder for Jayasuriya if Bond doesn't get rid of him quick.

 

[Athlai]

This is what happens when Bond doesn't perform. Dire New Zealand.

Bond drops two. Ahaha.

 

[pasag]

Lol at Bond, drops Jayasuriya twice in an over. First time would've been a great catch, the second a sitter.

 

[Days of Grace]

dear oh dear, NZ 'ere...

deah oh dear

 

[Days of Grace]

has Bond lost the ability to bowl yorkers??

thoughts anyone?
