This is hard with the Highlanders playing so well - missed another try. Up 27-0 now.<br><br>
Back on topic, going great guns. Keep it going lads.</p></blockquote>

Don't do that you idiot ... I've recorded it -

Craig Cumming - 'Ronchi hasn't been in good form for the last 3 or 4 months'<br><br>
Excuse me, what?<br><br>
More like 3-4 years Craig.</p></blockquote>

12 months -
Interesting contrast. Dhoni post match: "Our batsmen got themselves out. It's all the batsmens fault" (paraphrasing). Smith post match: "Credit to the way the NZ bowlers bowled in the middle stages".<br><br>
I want to hate Smith because he's so fucking good but he isn't making it easy. -

Has his moments ... -
<p>Timmy and Trent rush back tot he nets to practice their cutters, slower balls and back of the hand deliveries because that's what gets Mitch and Milne the nod</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Milne was actually good today. He's quicker than most and that sets up his cutter from the side of his hand. The dramatic pace change. Those 2 he bowled to Maxwell (he's not so bright me thinks) were pretty much spot on but french cuts don't show up in stats (copyright MN5).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hats off Hesson and Kane.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Batting still needs more ones and twos in the middle and ultra energetic running, but I don't know what pitches are like in the next 2 games.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Happy times though</p> -
<p>Just a heads up, there are some decent highlights packages at www.cricinfo.com</p>

<p>Why are we playing on rolled mud & the others are playing on roads? Its fucking Suzie all over again</p>
<p> </p>
<p>If England are going home after 2 games. KP will be tweeting his tnumbs off.... Butler is going to have to go mental soon</p>

<p>I was thinking that about the wickets, but quite ok to see Ind and Oz off on non roads. We got the pakis and a chance to make it at Chandigar - no idea about that surface, but in Kane we trust</p> -

<p>Yeah - can't recall if we were seeded to make the semifinals - but, regardless I'm sure most people's expectations were that India and Oz would make it. Odds-on now that at least one of those teams will miss out. Guaranteed if we beat either Pakistan or Bangladesh.</p>
