Chappell/ Haddlee Series!! Congrats Eng..

[mismaiden]

First of all Congrats To The English Cricket Team..
Well Played And They Deserved To Win That series
They Were The Best In All Of The Last Games Played
Good luck In The World Cup Lads...

Now Chappell/Haddlee Series.. NZ Vrs OZ..

I Think This Will Be A Good Contest For Both Countries To try things out for the world cup..
With the loss of Ponting, Gilcrest and Symonds And The COMMBANK Series they will want
to make amends...
The Kiwis On The Other Hand Need To Use That To Their Advantage and get it right..
I Liked The look Of C.Martin In The State Sheild Final.. He Bowled 8 overs 2 Maidens
And Picked Up 3 for 7.. I also noticed his aggressiveness has changed.. Who Knows
We just may see him in this sreies.. CANT WAIT...

DESERVED TO WIN THAT SERIES. COMPLETE UTTER BULL****. Australia lost to them just once and lost just one game. England.... lost like 4 or 5.

Anyway enough bagging, Hussey as captain, Clakre as dept and Voges in team. Should be a cracker!

Will be a cracking series - seeing how new Zealand played in the Com series, I am surprised Australia have ommited both Gilchrist and Ponting - if they get beat - this could bring a lack of momentum to the World Cup, following that defeat by England.
good luck both sides - bet there are some high scores.

Tim! Settle down settle down..
May-be that message didnt come out the way i was supose to put it.

When England were down and out and gettin written off by some people they woke up
and started to win games. The first game they won was against Aussie and they won
that game by quite some margin as i can remember i think it was 93 runs feel free to
correct me if iam wrong. The second game they beat the kiwis and thats what got them
in to the finals! So thats two games there that they had won. Now the first final was
against Aussie! England went on to win that game which put them 1 nil up in the
series! Remember this is the side that was down and out running out of players and
gettin written of by some. Then came the second match England looked more comfortable
than Aussie to win that second game regaurdless of the rain.. And due to the duck worth
Lewis system they did.. So the Comm/Bank series went to them. So there you have it
it aint B....S... Once again Congrats to the Engish in my eyes they deserved to win..

Hellow Ernest..

Yes iam looking forward to the C/H series it should be a cracker..

I have just read on another board that i visit that Brett Lee has just been injured
while training today with the rest of the squad at Wellington (correct me if iam wrong)
Ive also heard that Michael Clark may well be out injured due to a hip strain..

I dont know if this information is correct iam only going on what i have read today.

Hi M,

News on Lee here - not searched the site, may be news on Michael Clark.
It seems Brett lee has "Rolled his ankle".

[vvvrulz]

New Zealand have their biggest chance to really gain an advantage over the aussies. With punter, gilly and Lee all missing, they must surely fancy themselves to win today in Wellington, and possibly the series.

That will really put Australia on the back foot before the World Cup.

[Aussie-Yank]

They way I read it New Zealand is in the worest position - If they lose then they lost against an aussie side with a lot of there best players out. While if they win, well they should have - Australia had a lot of players out.

[Ernest]

I agree that new Zealand are in a worse possition than Australia - they will be expected to beat a weakened Australia team.

However if Australia lose after losing to England in that Tri Nations series, then they lose the momentum built since 2005 - and beyond.

IMO Australia should have sent a stronger team for that reason.

[Lefty]

Many congratulations to the Black Caps on their fine win , I think the Aussies would not want to face either at the moment.
