We'll go unchanged if the HBM dish out a normal pitch again.

Haarithan · Mar 13, 2013

What a time to endure such a collective failure. :facepalm

Unchanged on a normal surface.

Ahmad Shah · Mar 13, 2013

Great way to enter the Grant Finale continuing our winning streak. What a time for AB to bring up his first hundred of the season! Kohli played another constructive innings. With most of our batsmen looking in great form we can actually expect to win this.

Man of the match

Michael Clarke played a major part in ending Hawke's Bay's run towards their third successive title

Haarithan · Mar 14, 2013

Oh f-off. Anaru Kitchen turned out to be absolutely useless over the last few games.

Good luck Wellington, having Trott helps. May he win himself a hattrick of NZPL titles. :thumbs

Sartaj · Mar 14, 2013

What an exciting finish we are heading towards!
We always had a tough time against the HBM and wanted to get back at them for spoiling our party last season.We went down in the league-stage clash as well,so this win gives us the boost to hopefully go all the way.

Clint McKay struck early once again,just like he did in second overseas round but Trott and Clarke were up to the challenge this time and batted beautifully to resurrect the our innings and Morgan played a really useful innings to propel us to a very healthy total.We were up against a heavy batting unit,so we still needed to get our act together with the ball and the skipper led by example with his miserly figures,accounting for the big wicket of Watson in the process.

Interestingly,the two teams which were involved in almost all the trades made will battle it out in the grand finale.
It will be a treat for the fans with both teams on a winning-streak.

Ahmad Shah · Mar 14, 2013

So you still want 7 players bowling right? Just thought I'd check because Clarke didn't bowl in the last game but he's down as a bowler.

Sartaj · Mar 14, 2013

Yup,Clarke to have a bowl again (especially after dismissing Tendulkar).

Neesham's and Watson's overs really cost you in both of your playoff matches. You probably could've used Styris as a 7th bowler, or at least tried using him at some stage throughout the season and seen how seven genuine bowlers went.
