What do you think of Twenty20 Cricket? I think it is great to watch, but I hope it doesn't over take Test Cricket or One Day games as the dominant form of the game. Also, do you think tests should become day/night? I think not!

Have to agree with you there- T20 is a bit of fun but Test cricket is the real thing, a true test of ability. The series just completed here in South Africa with England was a great ad for the game in terms of the excitement that a five day game can generate.

Not too sure about the day/night thing, too many variables involved IMO. I suppose it would make it more possible for us with normal jobs to see some high level cricket, but I'm not convinced.

Looking forward to SA in India from next week, especially with a new coach and all the shake-ups that's been happening over here.

What do you think of Pink Cricket balls being used for day/night.

If you haven't heard of that, look at this:

Kiwis LOOK AWAY! The Ozzies are in town! Aaaaargh!


Oz Captain, Clarkey; made a Freudian slip at the media conference when he said he'd be watching the bondage tapes when he meant to say he'd be watching the Shane Bond tapes!lol

AS it's not on at the Basin...I won't be able to jump the fence!

I reckon we could give them Ozzies a fair run for their money in the 20/20. It's just a game for sloggers after all.:-)

You're right poneke;particularly if Shane Bond and Dan Vetori can get amongst the wickets.

Can you beat the Aussies; can pigs fly?

Tonight's 20/20 match at Westpac Stadium(NZ Blackcaps vs Ozzies)should be a cracker.
How many batsmen will be swinging both ways?! Whooohooo!

Well, we didn't just lose...we were handed a caning!
Though Ross Taylor was deffo not out! And did you all see Wgtn in the background...not a bad wee place for a capital city:-)

Your Blokes beat ours; our Sheilas beat yours. That makes it 1-all in the Nation stakes. Fair Dinkum Trev !

Your Watson bloke did something quite refreshing, when he missed a catch, instead of just swearing his head off; he put his face into his cap and then let rip.:-) Funny! Funny! Funny! And great for the kids watching at home too.We could all do with a little less of prof sportsmen cussing on our screens! He's my man of the match for that.


Off to take my own caning on the Ozzie threads:-)

Yes poneke you were given a 'caning' and the Aussie cricket 'headmaster' is going to call you back into the 'cricket' room before the 'term' ends!

On a more serious note, what do people think about the coming EPL competition in India.

Should players go to this tournament given the threats from 'Extremist' groups?

I don't know, it is very serious. Even if they raise the security it will be risky. I think move it to a different place.
