NZ 97/1 in 15 overs
126/1 in 20 overs
NZ are making a great fight of this. Really good match so far.
how quick was shane bond today?
Well its 25th over in progress and in all likelyhood it will be completed and if the rain should interrupt the match, NZL will win but i hope match goes right down to the wire. :k:
SA in trouble, Pollock is just about to cry.
The game has been interrupted by rain. I think it could be curtains for SA.
Fleming has played a fantastic knock for NZ, on 100+ not out so far.
If it continues to rain, NZ would win this match. They needed to be 110-1 at end of 25 and they were 148-1.
Every second that goes by, makes NZ task easier.
Dont tell me:D, i missed that…
Well Even after the loss SA cn qualify provided they beat SL which im sure they will and Thus SA, WI and NZL will go through.
The rain stopped now after 31 overs. NZ need to be 138 and they are almost 50 runs ahaed of that. So if it keeps raining NZ got it. Great batting by Flemming. Leading from the front. Boucher will get a big chitrol for dropping him when he was 52, now with a brilliant century under his belt he is playing really well. Same goes for Astle. He is providing great support. Mcmillan was a little dissapointing but right now NZ is running away with the match.
**the target is revised game is about to rstart and according to this inexplicable Duckworth-Lewis Method they need 227 from 39 overs
That means 45 runs from 51 balls**
well 44 runs from 8 overs. They should do it.
18 needed in 5 overs.
cake walk.
A horrible over from Klusner. Hit for 2 fours. Almost every ball in the over was a full toss.
12 from 24, whoaaaa go NZL go :k:

12 need from 21 balls
Pullock back in the attack.
7 needed from 3 overs.
Its all over... NZ wins by 9 wickets
NZ has lost a game earlier in the tournament right..by which team?
SA justified thier 'choker's tag, Boucher dropped a sitter off fleming and Donald was all over the park. So far two certainities from this group are NZL and SL provided any other upset with NZL and SL most likely to finsih with 16 points atleast. WI well they too are most likely to get 16 atleast BUT If SL is beaten by both WI and SA and NZL boycott Kenya mtch this would be the most liekly scnario
WI 5 wins 20 points
SL 4 wins 16 points
SA 4 wins 16 points
NZL 4 wins 16 points
what a scenario that would be :D
