Strange that there are so many Zimbabwean fans at the game and hardly any South Africans. I know from experience in NZ that a lot of South Africans living there don't want to be known as South Africans.

Just been looking through the fixtures and cant believe that from now on there is going to be only 1 match a day. Crazy as the interest will wane until the knock out stages. They should get this first phase over and dusted by playing 2 or even 3 matches a day. Don't tell me about logistics as it takes a 3 to 4 hours to fly from any city in Australia to NZ with the exception of Perth where its about 7 hours. You can fly in practice one day and play the next. Then move on. The backroom staff do all the work (kit etc). Players must just practice and play.

Lance klusener, shaun pollock, brian mcmillan, jaques kallis...all quality all rounders dearlymissed and few and far between in world cricket. Albie morkel should be inthis squad.. showed his quality the odi final for titans. And he is one batsmen who always turned iton in ausie...berhardien is farking uselezz. Cntbat or bowl.rather play with rilley as the extra batter and let jp bowl 10..he may not be the best of bowlers but hehas the best cricketing brain in da side and that will pick him up some wickets. If ur stuck get faf to bowl some leggies as well be cause imo he is tooo weak a batsmen to be a specialist batsmen. He can fight when needed but he is not someone who will/has produced day in day out. Still think albie shouldve been selected

Money in the bank for losing ?? !! :unsure:

Read a book about a possible fix in the 2011 semi-final between Pakistan and India...runs/wickets at certain intervals were almost spot on...think Tendulkar was dropped 4/5 times between the Akmals and then some unusually slow scoring in the middle overs by Pakistan before falling 20-30 runs short...

David Wiese for me...Albie had more than enough opportunities but never found his feet at international level...bowling weak...too much down leg...and with short boundaries in New Zealand, just a short flick to the boundary...
