Should be pretty one sided with England unable to win a ODI, NZ got to the Semi Final in the ICC Champions trophey but i us aussie will dominate

Excellent more than one game against Bond It's high time we get rid of the demons he caused as in the last series he played here. NZ's top order will be there problem, they should pick Ross Taylor at least.
England could be alright as Flintoff should like batting in ODIs and KP can let rip too, they just need the others to do something.

well there gonna need a big pick up, dont be suprised if they finished 3rd

Should be CB ODI team's tournament considering their one day form, but New Zealand might challenge them a fair bit. Expect Lee and Bond to dominate the batsmen.

I forgot about that.

Last time New Zealand came over for a one-dayer tri-series was 01/02 I think. Came over with South Africa and Australia ended up coming third. I don't see the same happening again with England involved though.

It's cause those no good Kiwis weren't playing within the spirit of cricket
Honestly though it was very even all teams were equal on wins but those dam bonus points stuffed us up.

I remember that. That was easily the best ODI series I have seen in Australia. It was the first one I saw. Mind you people more take interest (none cricket lovers) when Australia struggle - wich isn't that often.

We wont come 3rd, we might come 2nd if NZ step up but i'm pretty confident we can place ahead of the Kiwis

I wonder if we will experimenting a bit more this tournament though and hence more losses being possible. If Tait is fit I would like to see him given a go, obviously we need one new batter so that will be one to watch out for.
