Yeh,look - the kiwis not a fantastic team but they manage to do reasonably well though with the players they have.

I agree and I will admit that their success story has got a lot to do with their captain. ;)

AB will do well if he stays patient through the first few overs. Smith also gets frustrated if he's not getting runs and charges down the wicket and gives away his wicket for nothing.

Let's hope Gibbs is also in top form today.We need to stay on the top 4 list.

Me too!

*Think Graeme Smith & AB de Villiers will score big today.....
there goes that prediction

Like someone else said, NZ doesn't have the same big names as the rest of the top teams, but the thing that makes them so good is they have a lot of average players who perform consistently enough to make NZ the team they are.

Kallis and Gibbs FTW :D

Well, if Bangladesh can beat us, then I'm sure NZ stands a change as well.:rolleyes:

Honestly, the Bangladesh match was a farce. I actually think it was thrown, thats how ridiculous it was.
No way can a bunch of teenagers cause such kuk among professional cricketers, they were probably still babalas and dik geroek from the night before ... :rolleyes:

I dont think its easy to bat out there. Like someone ^ said lets hope its the same when we bowl. But we first gotta get some to defend.

Yes. Like 200 odd would be great right now. i don't know what our bowlers cant defend right now. But it does seem to be doing a lot for the bowlers...
