Semi Finals

Why doesn't Bond bowl the first over, is it some sort of superstition?
I would assume it has to do with who likes a 100% clean ball or else who bowls from whch end... not sure who decides on which end the first over is bowled from?

Bond has never bowled the first over for as long as I can remember, certainly he has been bowling the second ober since his major injury comeback.

Bond very un-bondish here. Puzzling.

EDIT: Haha, Franklin found another way to concede a boundary before he started his 2nd over :laugh:

WTF is this? I expected a lot better crowd turn out atleast for big games like the semi-finals and finals but that doesn't seem like happening.



EDIT: Ball ain't swinging for Bond and he is consistently bowling down the leg-side. Is it due to nerves?

Good on him, I rate Arnold quite highly as well. Can't beleive I'm agreeing with Ian Smith though.
Yeah, Arnold is great. But it just sounded so funny.
Ian: "I'm a big Russell Arnold fan"

I LoL'd.

And shame on you for agreeing with Ian Smith 8-)
