New Zealand in Zimbabwe

[jazz]

looks like daryl tuffey will be out of this squad for a long time

 

[Ryand]

Zimbabwe looks to have a good enough team but especialy with carlisle coming back but it is not enough against the kiwis

 

[ZexyZahid]

I really hope Bond performs in this match.

Why has Chris Martin been preferred to Daryl Tuffey?

Why has Chris Martin been preferred to Daryl Tuffey?

Martin is a great aggressive bowler. He goes for runs but he does get wickets. Tuffey was going though bad form and also there was a milkshake incident which probably diddn't help much but we won't go into that. He will be back, the time off to work on his bowling will do him great.

Milkshake incident...? That sounds...wierd. What happened, brain freeze?

 

[Ryand]

What's a milkshake incident.No cricketing terms i've heard off o i'm guessin its off the field.

I cant wait to see Great Bond again in action. I really missed him alot. I think he is the best and fastest bowler in the world. I am really excited about Bond return

 

[irottev]

Yes it was off the field. All kinds of sportsman do not so smart things which they end up getting publicly humiliated with. Its nothing Warne hasn't probably done before.

I don't know what the milkshake incident is but I think he is referring to this incident here.

Also Tuffey isn't a great bowler. Anyone remember that over against Australia where he had to bowl seventeen balls or something like that.

Excellent start by the Kiwiz...after a bad start....Great knocks from McCullum, Vettori and Bond!!

 

[ZoraxDoom]

Well they lost five wickets at lunch...

 

[m_vaughan]

and went on to post 457 in the first day

 

[irottev]

We have a bit of an opening problem. I think we did great out there though. Its out first innings of a Test in a while. Its a very nice score. Nice centuries by McCullum and Vettori. I rekon Bond can make one as well if Martin can stay in.

The opening bowling from Zimbabwe was pretty damn good. It really did put us under pressure. Its a good pitch.
