he called that caught behind decision right... lucky the umpire didn't.

He didn't say a huge amount though... just answered the questions straight up.

Yes he made his full international debut in 06 against Malaysia at NHS. Not sure how many caps he has won but sure he's played a few since then.

Three for me, and two for them.

Our media man Johnh Mitchell did. Was a great PR for the club and appreciate Sky's support. The only thing was that he had to stop talking everytime the bowler ran in.

Good way to get across to cricket fans who don't see much soccer in NZ. Hopefully gets a few along to the Adelaide game.

Good work I was pretty surprised he had never been to a cricket match though!

I came across this when channel surfing last night - watched the cricket for the duration of Durante's time at the commentary box, then left shortly after, so good for cricket too I guess ;)

the phoenix should have tried to get an advert over the pa system or on the screen at the cricket that may have worked for crowd numbers to the last game

The Phoenix was briefly mentioned over the speakers.
And at one point the logo flashed on the screens..
