Vettori had 1 wicket in the second innings but you don't call him a bad bowler. I think bowling tightly and on the right lines all the time is more important than trying to bowl deliveries that while can take wickets, cost runs. I think Harmison should stick with a consistent line and...

Agree with the KP statements. He hasn't been himself since he's been here. As for Ian Smith, shut him up? Have you listened to your own Channel 9 commentators lately? The Ian Healy, Mark Taylor, and the English? Good god you know the rest of the world can't stand their Aussie Aussie Aussie oi oi...

Agree with HArmison dropped. But I think once this guy is dropped, I'm not sure he's got the mental fortitude to fight his way back in. In a way, once he's dropped, so is his career finished.

Agree for Broad in for Harmison. This maybe his last test ever for ENgland. I would say the same DEFINITELY for Skippy Sinclair. He's rubbish. However, I can't see England winning, rather whether they can save the game tomorrow with 2 spinners operating, two reverse swing seamers who are...

Goodness gracious. Secningitis has hit New Zealand cricket and it has been building since 2004 against English. We get off to solid, some might even call commanding starts and then collapse in the second innings.

Been following the test cricket. What's wrong with Harmison here? Last time I saw him he was really really good. What happened? He was ranked number 1 at one point wasn't he?

Shouldn't Dhoni win the man of the series?

Great Win India, know that the rest of the world aside from Australia is rooting for you guys to win. :)

Goodness gracious me. Do the lowly ranked Black Caps side who is notoriously horrible at tests ACTUALLY have a chance now? That is SOME collapse...

If this England side doesn't wipe the floor with the current shocking test team we call the Black Caps, you guys do not deserve the test ranking. If there is no fight in the English team, there is NOTHING we can look forward to in this New Zealand side. None of the batsmen in this lineup...

You do wonder how long before Australia stop pushing the age gap with the string of retirements in their national side. It's fast turning into a team with no spinner of note (Hogg retirement), and not much in terms of batting by the time Ponting, Hayden and Hussey retires.

I'm not sure there. Our bowling sure, it's a good wicket, but aside from Vettori and Oram, no one else had a pearler. Agreed with James Marshall for Pete. In fact, any up and coming batsman would have done better than Pete at the moment. He needs to rediscover his form prior to his long...

To be fair, McCullum grew into the role as well. He was an out and out batsman when he first started. He got dropped, picked up gloves for domestics, then came back into the team when our batting really needed help. He stayed in the team despite poor form with the bat, with the pretense that...

Sangakkara! This is unexpected. Our best ever opening partnership since the one set by Flems and Vincent a while back.

I can't believe how close this match is. 159 all out in the 43rd over, what if Hussey had scored runs in the rest of the 7 overs if India hadn't bowled them out. I doubt India would have won this. (surely we can declare India winners!)

We can't afford to have Mason and MArtin together with the inexperienced batting lineup we got. That's the only reason Mills is in the side at his current form with the ball. Fulton's natural position is number 4 or 5. Taylor should be 3. How should open, and Ryder should pop all the way...

Don't screw this up India, PLEASE! It's not often Australia is on the ropes like this...

This is capitulation by ENgland, where were that polished, top class effort from 20 20? I mean, they scored less in 50 what they scored in 20 overs. 148 opps. :P (Aussie score) 2nd ODI will be entertaining and much closer I think. England still have the talent to burn compared to ours. But...

An interesting fact, Australia without Ponting and Gilchrist got bowled out in a ODI here last year for 118.

Don't worry fellas, just survive through and get whatever total and we (new Zealand) will get bowled out in 25 overs.
