Aussies LOSE !!!

New Zealand have beaten Australia in the opening match of the Chappell-Hadlee Trophy. With this, the Aussies have lost 2 matches in a row !! The last time this happened was over a year ago in the West Indies when they lost the last 3 matches of the series but those were all dead rubbers. The last time Australia lost 2 live matches in a row was in 2002 against Pakistan. Just a flash in the pan or is the Empire beginning to crumble ?? Meanwhile, the Kiwis have now lost only 2 of their last 21 games ...

Dont't forget, the Ausssies were without McGrath, Warne and Gillespie...they were rested!!!!... unbelievable. Over confidence bordering on arrogance - that's what I'd say. Just goes to show that Aussies are not the same force without McGrath & Gillespie. Symmonds getting out for a duck didn't help either.

What a disastrous over did Kasprowich bowl...22 runs!!! half-vollies, wide and what not..I think that made it far more easier for the kiwis in the end..but still kudos to them.
