New Zealand in Australia Nov-Dec 2008 Feb 2009

I'm not getting over it. We're going to go down 3-2 in this series after leading 2-0. I'm really annoyed. We can never finish the job.

Why is this CH series 5 matches instead of 3. We should win it 2-1.

Look at the replay. He moves his gloves from in front of the stumps to behind it within a second so how can he tell when the impact was? This stuff happens in cricket.

Dussey is getting tied down too easily here, RRR is now over 6 an over. He needs to get more singles rather than getting bogged down so easily.

 

[King Pietersen]

50 for Duss. Aus just need him to keep going now and lead them home.

 

[aussie1st]

Solid 50 from Dussey best he has looked all summer. Now he needs to be there at the end.

Mussey dropped by Cumming he is having a shocker.

 

[angryangy]

Lucky 13, eh?

 

[irottev]

Cumming's terrible. Whoever selected him should be sacked. He's a **** batsman. He just totally tweaked elliot. Elliot had Haddin dropped last game too.

GG Australia.

They should of used Diamanti instead I am sure they will for Brisbane now. He would of bowled well on this pitch seeing how well Elliot is doing hes also a great fielder and I am sure he would of made more runs than Cumming as well (not difficult).

We will probably lose this 3-2 now but had you given that to me before the tour started I would have taken it. No Oram, Styris or Ryder hurts. Most of it is just lack of experience I think, to many new guys all at once. The future is looking promising though.

 

[irottev]

I woulda taken it too, but after being up 2-0 and getting the country's hopes up this is major fail.

 

[aussie1st]

Good knock from Dussey comes to an end, he at least did some damage in the powerplay before going.
Ferguson comes out and starts scoring at a run a ball. The way our selectors are playing him they are grooming him to take over the Bevan/Hussey role.

 

[angryangy]

Next game is at Brisbane, isn't it? I wonder if there's a chance of 2-2.

 

[irottev]

Next game is at Brisbane, isn't it? I wonder if there's a chance of 2-2.

To be honest, I hope it pisses down and the game is abandoned. I'll take 2-2. A 3-2 loss after being 2-0 up will piss me off far too much to risk it.

Ferguson comes out and starts scoring at a run a ball. The way our selectors are playing him they are grooming him to take over the Bevan/Hussey role.

Nah, though he does suit batting low because of his strokeplay, he's batting where most rookies bat.

 

[irottev]

Another plumb LBW turned down. I think it's time for neutral ODI umpires sadly. That's a DISGUSTING decision.

I'm getting furious. We deserve this series. We've copped some horrible umpiring this series. From no balls Haddin to these BS LBWs.

 

[aussie1st]

Ferguson gets one back after he got a shocker in the last match.

 

[irottev]

That was no where near as shocking as in the last game. Plus this cost us a lot more then the last game did.

I think we need Neutral umpires. I am suspicious about Gayvis and that other useless pr!ck who did the first games.
