The cricket season so far.....

She's been a bit since my last entry. The Cricket season fully underway with SA winning the series against the Aussies, the first in Oz for 16 odd years. NZ at home couldn't put away the Indies in a 2 test series and is currently 1-1 with them in the one-dayers. just wish the rain would stop so we could enjoy a full or even a completed game. SA and Aust. will now battle it out in a 20/20 & one day series, while NZ awaits India.

But the big showdown for the summer is the Ashes series, Australia v England. England ust be quietly licking heir lips in the hint of a series win. We shall have to wait and see?

The kiwi's will have it tough against the Indians but local conditions should favour the Blackcaps.

Hats off to Graeme Smith, the SA's caption who batted at the death with a broken hand and who nearly saved the last test match for his home nation with a draw.....just 10 balls short!
