A great win for NZ. We bowled Pakistan out for 218, to win by 32 runs.Our bowlers stepped up,and set up the victory.Bond again breaking the vital partnership taking 21-5-46-3,with Martin 2/45, O’Brien 3/63, Vettori 2/51. Once Yousuf and the very promising Umar were gone, it looked all over. Just so good to have such a interesting test match. Ok some of the cricket was not great, but at least it was interesting. The Pakistan really let themselves down in the field, and one has to wonder why all the time.
Australia wrapped up th WI in 3 days. 228 and 187, to win easy. Hauritz doing very well with 6-3-17-3 and 14-1-40-2.Man of the match going to Hilfenhaus, why?? He takes match 5/70. Katich or Hauritz. Well done Barath. He made 104, at 100 he had 100 the rest 43!!!! A very good 100 in a team thrashed. As I stated in previous blogs, I can’t understand how Gayle is Capt. ahead of Ganga. Hes to much for me, and WILL never be a team leader.
