One thing I like to say is, it's not suggested to follow like, " You post in my story and I will post in ur story " and saying a list of friends in msn " Updated." making/forcing the members to reply.

I am sure KX, your story has been fantastic and attracted many members here including me. Members here read more and tend to post out of interest. It's my personal suggestion to you that, let story writers keep continuing their efforts and those efforts will attract many readers.

Regarding this story, I will select the mini superselector again by tomrw. Narrowly missed the first one. Good win for Tom. ;)

Tony Grieg :
Welcome to Phillips Extra Cover the Preview Show live from Sydney . With me in the studio I have Martin Crowe alongside with Ian Chappell . Welcome both of you . So we had the first tet match which was shaping out really well was washed away due to rain . So what do we expect from this test match .

Martin Crowe :
Yeah , we had a great game at our hand in the 1st test but in this test we can hope that we get a full 5 days of cricket . This would be a rally important match for both the sides .

Ian Chappell :
I agree with Martin . This is gonna be really important match for the Kiwis as they go to the last match which is at Perth which is known as Aussies den so I think if they win this one it would be really a good thing before they go in the Perth test .

Tony Grieg :
Thank You guys lets now see what the weather has in store for us on day 1 of this test match .

Michael Slater :
Thanks Tony , the weather here is bright sunny . the temperature over here is also high its about 32 C . No signs at all of any dark cloud near the ground . I had a talk with the weather forecaster he said that it would not rain through out the test match which mean we would be able to see a complete test match . Back to you Tony .

Tony Grieg :
Thats good , no forecast of showers throughout the test match which means we will be able to see a complete match .

Ian Chappel :
Thats a great thing for the supporters and players .

Tony Grieg :
Now its time to go to the SCG where Waz is waiting for us with the pitch report .

Tony Grieg :
Thanks Waz , Martin what will you do if you win the toss ?

Martin Crowe :
I would be really looking to bat first as it would be really good for batting .

Tony Grieg :
Ok lets now go down to Geoffrey who is with the two captains.

Geoffrey Boycott :
Thanks Tony , I have the two captains with me . Ricky has the coin in his hands and what is your call Daniel ?

Daniel Vettori :
Heads !

Geoffrey Boycott :
It is indeed heads ! Whats your choice Daniel ?

Daniel Vettori :
We are gonna bat first .

Geoffrey Boycott :
What made you tempted to bat first ?

Daniel Vettori :
Well , this pitch looks really a good wicket for batting , it has a lots of runs stored in it . As it will be turning afterwards which will suit us .

Geoffrey Boycott :
Well , so any changes ?

Daniel Vettori :
Yes , Jamie How comes in for Michael Papps and Jeetan Patel comes in for Michael Gillespie .

Geoffrey Boycott :
Thanks and Good Luck ! Coming to you Ricky , bad toss to lose ?

Ricky Ponting :
Yeah this pitch has always favored the batsmen and I would have opted to bat first if I had won the toss .

Geoffrey Boycott :
Last match being washed away , this becomes and important match for both the team .

Ricky Ponting :
Yeah , we wanna win this one and take a huge advantage as we go in the last match .

Geoffrey Boycott :
Any changes in the side ?

Ricky Ponting :
Yeah , Just one change Bracken comes in for Stuart Clark .

Geoffrey Boycott :
Thanks and Good Luck . So the news from the center is that New Zealand have decided to bat on winning the toss . Back to the Studio.

Tony Grieg :
Thanks Geoffrey , Martin right choice by Vettori ?

Martin Crowe :
Absolutely right one . Even when I saw the pitch report it looked a ideal pitch for batting . If Fleming is able to settle down then he is gonna score huge runs .

Tony Grieg :
So thats all from us . We will take a short break and then its live action from the SCG .
