bad captaincy and i mean no offense to nz cricket but Bond is really needed i dont care if they have to fork out heaps we need him he is key to new zealand test and one day cricket since at the moment who is our genuine pace bowler mills martin come on they are lucky to stay in the 140s
Said he didn't want to play for us but I know what you mean. Vettori had a shocker I also felt that when we were batting he should of brought on Southee and Mills ahead of himself as they are bigger hitters and Vettori didn't have time to get his eye in.

Bondy wants nothing more than to play for his nation, its just he signed a three year contract with his ICL team without understanding the consequences and being a man of his word, he is not about to renege on that. I think the ICC are working to allow ICL players to be allowed to play for their country but a lot of stuff needs to be worked out.

Vettori bowled immaculately last night, the only issue was the desicion to bowl Jeets with a slippery, wet ball in the 2nd last over. Surely Jakey wouldve been a better option, he is one of the truely economic bowlers in world cricket. Even Elliot could've been worth a go earlier on in the innings. Don't think there was too much wrong in the bowling, our batting was pretty poor though. Hope it was just an anomoly, cos that team has so much talent.
No Bond said after the way he was treated by NZC that he wouldn't play for them even if they asked him to. There is an article about it somewhere. P.S I meant Vettori had a shocker as captain not as a bowler.wellyphoenixfan2009-01-04 17:15:13
