Come on! Any of the NZ teams would do but, I hope it's Napier as I was the first manager of Napier, IIRC.
 
Bravo! What a spell by Umar Gul and it couldn't have come at a better time. Tuffey, Vettori and Kallis were all outstanding with the ball. And at the end some responsible batting by Nicol and Kallis made sure we got there with ease. I am sure Gaurav would be really happy right now, considering all his patience and desire of having a NZ team in the CL has finally been rewarded. :p
