Twenty20 World Cup Warm-up matches

I wonder why Oram and McMillan didn't bat for us. West Indies were allowed to use all their players in the game but we seemed to only use 11. And why did we let Powell bowl 4 overs for 4 runs. Weird.

I think after these warmups I'm already going to write off us and Australia.

powell is a damn good bowler.

Add Ponting into that top order and it will be a lot more settled. Gilly and Hayden could click at any stage and with Hilfy and Lee we have a very good bowling attack and Bracken has proven he can get wickets when under attack.

Not too surprised with SA blasting away Smith and De Villers have shown they can score really quick.

He sure is. Even 4 overs of yorkers should have been dug out for more then 4 runs. That is amazing figures.

Maybe us New Zealanders are doing a Warne and leaving our best for the important stuff

But Powell bowled bloody brilliantly!

you have a point, and he did bowl a wide ball.

so it's really just 3 runs off the bat
