not bad.... i'd personally think about dropping Steve. It would never happen, but he's not really a One-day batter, and he doesn't bowl much anymore.. I'd let Warney/Gilchrist co-captain the team... and bring in another fiery batter.. what's Darren Lehmann been up to these days?

[Wiggo]

Yes Lehmann and Hayden should be in there with Gilchrist as 1st drop. ;)

i'd open with gilly and hayden.. and swap bevan to 5 and put lehmann in 4...

[Albinus]

Well the team I suggested with Lehmann instead of Steve Waugh seems pretty good to me :thumb:

which is what i said directly beneath your post.. :)

Yeah......... but............. oh well :D

[Albinus]

Well well well..... as I always say, the match in Brisbane that doesn't involve Australia is the better of the two - and what a match we had tonight

Couldn't watch on TV - the game wasn't a sellout so I had to listen to the radio but NZ won with 5 balls to spare, and Chris Cairns hitting a 4 off the last ball to get his century :toung:

Good match - and the Australians have dropped Michael Bevan, Ian Harvey and someone else who I can't remember for tomorrow's match - I think that move will backfire

Not a fan of Mark Waugh - Bit up himself if you asked me.

Matthew Hayden, Andrew Symonds and Andy Bichel have been called up for today's match but the starting lineup has yet to be decided yet. :smokin:

Looks like a winning side to me. I wonder if the selectors will take our advice... :?:

[Albinus]

Well Steve Waugh is one of the selectors so I think not :(

Hmm i felt the same way about Mark Taylor........... just goes to show not everybody has the same opinion Al

[Beefy]
