It certainly is. Last time I went white water rafting in Queenstown, there was a group of 4 English ski enthusiasts who were hung over and the guide basically chucked them in the river at one point as they weren't pulling their weight with the rowing... Good stuff.

So, an over so slight lead (7 runs) leading into the crucial second part of the match - what a tight one, close to call at the moment!

World-A-Team won by 5 wickets
  
Man of the match: V-Rock
Some brilliant bowling, especially from V-Rock has enabled us to beat New Zealand, and take a lead in this series. With the final test just 6 days away, can we win the series, or will it be a drawn series?

Only time will tell.

Well done team (and V-Rock!!)

another wicket in each innings. I've been economic sometimes but just 2 wickets in 2 innings.

Good grief Rolf, one for one off nine overs?!? That's ridiculously economical!!

44 and 80 isn't bad really, I wish I could have pushed on for a ton, seeing as I reckon the 80 was on my birthday... Ah well, good to be in some form for once!

My first real great contribution with the ball, and batting with the tail and making a half century kept us in the game.

Well done lads, keep it up.
