Come on guys!
Mar 7th, 2013 at 9:20pm
 
The Kiwi cricket team had a great day in Dunedin, dismissing England for 167 then not losing a wicket as they homed in on that score. 

There are thousands of Kiwis living here but did the game rate a mention on Tv news? Is sport only worth mentioning if Australians are involved?

I for one like to see a competitive Kiwi team.....Cricket is always more exciting when the teams have a fighting spirit.....Kiwis always punch above there weight and are worthy opponents to be pummeled!!!

Great to see Hamish Rutherford get a ton on debut. Bit different from his Dad who was thrown to the wolves as opener in the Windies and couldn't buy a run.

The Kiwis are well on top but will the weather be kind? Sure hope so.

An effing draw with the Poms showing real fighting qualities.

On now to my favourit cricket ground, the biggest traffic island in the world, the Basin Reserve.
