Good recovery, Elliot is becoming a really solid one day player.

[AarowNZ]

And just as I post that he gets out...

[happybaboon]

Yeah, but it was probably time to accellerate a bit...

[Kazmeistyr]

Ross boy's been a bit slow. Let him unleash the fury now!

[Kazmeistyr]

Mills is the most over-rated, ball chucking, butt licking, piece of dick cheese ever invented.

[happybaboon]

Nah. Taylor can't take too many risks while the d00dz at the other end keep getting themselves out.

And Mills is a fucking good bowler... Think he's currently ranked No. 3 ODI bowler playing the game even... With only Vettori and some other guy ahead of him. Now Oram, HE'S an overrated buttlicker

Somehow, hawkeye has now been able to predict seam movement. How the fuxxxor can an lbw be given, from a leftie bowlie around the wicked, the ball pitching on middle and leg without offspin, i'll be rooted.

I think they're about 40 or 50 runs and a Jeetan Patel short of what they needed.

I think they are 2 seasons short of Bond where they needed.

Yup - not sure whether I'd say Jeetan, but he's the best we got.

Why oh why is the world short of quality leggies?

And where the hell are the quick bowlers in NZ, I don't think there is anyone in NZ cricket that can consistently bowl over 140kph.

The ability to bowl over 140kph requires a freak of nature, rarely seen. It's a matter of lack of population.

I can bowl around 125 these days, may have got to 135 when I was younger. But no matter what I did, I could not have got quicker.

INDIA'S star cricketers have been ordered to get busy between the sheets — to improve their performance on the field.


MS Dhoni and Co received a four-page document from head coach Gary Kirsten, detailing how they should keep themselves sharp.


And a busy sex-life has been recommended to the players, who are currently competing in the ICC Champions Trophy in South Africa.


Reports in India claim the relevant chapter, called 'Does sex increase performance?', reads: "Yes it does, so go ahead and indulge.


"From a physiological perspective, having sex increases testosterone levels, which cause an increase in strength, energy, aggression and competitiveness.

"Conversely, not having sex for a period of a few months causes a significant drop in testosterone levels in both males and females, with the corresponding passiveness and decrease in aggression."

For the single lads in the squad, the advice continues: "You may experience that your mind spends more time focusing on the fire in your groin than on good sport practice, preparation and sleep.

"If you want sex but do not have someone to share it with, one option is to go solo while imagining you have a partner, or a few partners, who are as beautiful as you wish to imagine.

"No pillow talk and no hugging required. Just roll over and go to sleep."

What the shit??

I think It's time for McCullum to drop back down the order, I prefer him as a finisher down the order. I also think he struggles against the new ball and against genuine pace
If he remains as an opener it has to be him that goes after the bowling early, not Ryder as the case seems to be at the moment

Guptill is an opening bat, let him play there, though he does need to sort out his compulsive hook/pull. Stupid shot to play when you've already taken 10 runs off an over.

Patel needs to play more, I think he needs to develop a bit more variety, a good armball, topspinner or one that goes the other way.

Agree with Kazmeisters comments with regards to Mills action
