New Zealand vs England 2008 ODI series

[Highlander999]

Not really surprised I dropped off the top spot. Please play Dimitry, England :upray

 

[satishmania]

i hope NZ bat first in the next match. Their middle order is not getting a chance to even bat

 

[ZexyZahid]

It seems I put too much faith in the English players by looking to their warm-up matches. And I've actually the same team as the number one, except for two positions: I've got Bell and Martin and he's got Vettori and Sidebottom. Major difference is also the captain.

 

[MS.Dhoni]

no surprises :

I expected to drop, since Collingwood didn't perform. Bell's duck didn't help me either.

i had the proper players this time around
but the difference between me and the no.3 is a little too much:crying

A bit surprising, that I didn't go up that much, since Collingwood was my captain, but the difference with the number one is only 112 points. Maybe I should have let Vettori in my team. I changed him into Styris, when I read he wouldn't play the first two Twenty20's.

Never kow.
if my captain gets out for a duck,it changes things big time.
