    I can see more changes being made. The level of play from the side this Summer has been pathetic.

    Move Bevan down the order. Once he got out today the whole team collapsed. Shocking

    You're right Stinky. As I said before, he's good at pushing the ball through the gaps, not at hitting out in the opening 15 overs.

    I know it's from the last game - but it fits.

    Cairns did a good job as skipper! :D

    I think we should let Australia A have a crack at the next game.

    I must offer my congratulations to Australia. It seems you CAN break 200 after all.

    Shall we recap the points standings?


    VB TRI SERIES 2002

    South Africa 8
    New Zealand 8
    Australia 0



    Looking forward to our 2 top batsmen, Astle & Fleming returning to the side. That should help us along a bit...

    Muhahahahahaha


    EDIT: I deserve this;

    *sigh* What a great game. :D


    Question: When was the last time Australia lost 3 ODIs in a row, in Australia. :confused:

    In Australia? That's a tough one. I know the last World Cup would have been the last time it happened, but that was in Britain, was it not?

    I'd have to say sometime around when the West Indies were on top of the world - mid 80's to early 1990's.

    I don't think I really need to comment on anything. The points table has been posted, images of grandure have been seen and a whale has been stranded on Bonzai beach after being slapped for 65.

    I think it was 96 when we last didn't make the finals in the Summer here. There could have been 3 straight loses then. I'm not sure though. The only two other times we didn't make the finals was more than likely the early 80s when we really sucked.

    And don't forget our woeful 1991 World Cup defence here. Was it 91? Well whenever it was we sucked then too.

    I saw it at the pub and I have to say a good effort by the Kiwis. I just hope Smith wasn't in the commentary box at the end...
