thanks.

Oh,to the people (or person) who thinks that bond doesn't swing the ball,what about in the VB series? 5-25? aussies 26-4?

so what? gilchrist couldn't play a straight ball? If you see his dismissal (bowled by bond)its ovbious it swung.

No not Nevin please. That's going backwards.

There are batsman who are scoring more runs than Nevin at the moment. And they don't need any introductions either...

The problem with Nevin is he balances those good scores with too many small ones.

As for Bond, I think some people are asserting that he can't swing the red ball. This, as most who have seen him in tests will know, is bollocks.

I think Nevin is well-gone, even if he scores a century here & there for Wellington.

I don't think the selectors will forget too quickly about some of those awful dismissals in India.

Well I guess it will be in our favour then.

This fielding side from NZ is the best for years. ANd is probably the best in the world at the moment without doubt.

yeah,nevin is too inconsistent.his only good knocks in the state shield was his 111 and a 50.Apart from that its just uselessness.

But its only lately has mcullum showing talent with his batting.


and about bond,hes the best no.11 (or 10)batsmen in the world I.M.O,and I know you're thinking "oh yippee" but he averages 17.20 with the bat,with a high score of 31 N.O.And,he is a BIG hitter.On occasions hes done well for getting new zealand for a fast 10-25 in the last couple of overs.

Yup, and you can always rely him to get a consistent score.

You can definately say that NZ won that final match in Wellington because of their fielding.
Marshall & Cumming saved a number of balls heading to the boundary.

marshall fielded brilliantly in the 4th odi too.had to save at least 4 boundaries.

But,marshall really gave the NZ'ers a heart attack when he caught razzaq! he juggled it!

if he had dropped it,that would have probably been the match.

Pakistan's fielding was diobolical to say the least, and inexuceable on the lush green outfields of the NZ grounds.
