**************************Ad Break****************​

Welcome back, well earlier on during the week i was out at the Waca with former NSW manager Bugsy Malone, who took on one of the toughest jobs in international cricket, The Black Caps. We had a quick word with the former Sydney local and this is what he had to say:

Brad Mcewan: So Bugsy tell me how is life over in New Zealand:Yer mate i am loving and so is the family. Was always going to be tough and a life changing decision but am loving it and hope i will be tehre for along time to come. Not the greatest start to the Tri Series.Your thoughts mate? Yer mate we have had a tough start but we are slowly coming together. This tour was always going to be tough but i think we can still get there and make the finals, i really do. We have played well in patches but not for a total game so i have the boards full support and they have stated that i am in complete control. New Zealand Cricket Board" Bugsy come on get over here we need to talk. Ok guys i must be off but hey speak to me in a few months to see how we are going. Brad Mcewan, well there you have it.

Well thats all we have time for tonight, hope you enjoyed and we will see you here again tomorrow night. Good Night>"Sports Tonight Theme song plays"

Welcome to the waca for what is a must win game for The kiwis after failing to take anything from there last 2 games they are at a stage where they must win this game to stay in the race for a finals berth.

The pitch looks great lets go down to Ian Botham to give us a slight run down on the wicket. Guys this is a belter, nothing in it for the quicks , the spin of Warney and Vittori may have some slight give but all in all i think its a very good one day wicket.I have the 2 skippers down here to toss the coin, Flemming calls HEADS: Its HEADS. We will Bat. Well there you have it, New ZEaland have won the toss and are having a bat.

The 2 teams are as follows
New Zealand

P Fulton, S Flemming (c), N Astle, C Mcmillan, J Oram, C Harris, A Adams, B McCullum, D Vittori, S Bond, D Tuffey

Australia

M Hussey, M Hayden, R Ponting(c), P Jaques, M Clarke, S Watson, A Gilchrist, B Lee, S Warne, J Gillespie, G Mcgrath.


Flemming & Fulton walking out to the middle, so lets get down to the action.The boys played some great shots and at the 10 over mark had reached 0 - 48.Warney & Lee where brought on but flemming and Fulton had other ideas, and when flemming brought up his 50 of 52 he was looking good. End of the 16th over New Zealand had moved to 0 - 78.Fleeming fell 2 overs later after looking to get the scoring moving alot faster and he was caught and bowled to lee for 54(59).

Astle was the next player in and was not there long as he was bowled by Watson. New Zealand following trends 2 - 88.Mcmillian tried to pick up the run rate and was going at a run a ball but was given LBW and what looked like a very poor decision, however New Zealand 3 - 108 of 23 overs. They need someone to consolidate and get a big score.Fulton brought up his 50(83),

, then an over later was given Caught behind for 51(86) and when you have a look at Snicko, you can see he missed it by a mile.

That bought Chris Harris to the crease and some one needed to stay. Harris and Adams went in the same over to Warney and with 10 overs to go New ZEaland where 6 - 170. ORam still in on 28(38). Lee then bowled McCullum and new Zealand struggling again. Vittori fell in the 48th over for 11(31).Oram Finished up 53*(69) as they crawled to reach 8 - 210. Not the greatest but if there bowers can stay on good lines and lengths it may be just enought to get them the 2 points.

********************Lunch***************************​

Australia come out blasting and hussey and Hayden got em off to an absolute belter of a start, hussey was first to fall for 47(52) australia 1 - 81 of 16 with matty Hayden still out there on 31(46).M Hayden fell to oram for 54(79) but at 2 - 137 of 29 overs Australia where in complete control.Bond then picked up Ponting for 36(52) and flemming could sense just maybe that some pressure was about to fall onto the middle order. he started to Screw in the screws and just maybe, Jaques went for 11(31) but i think there was just not enough runs on the board, in the end Australia doing it with 3 overs to spare and 6 wickets in hand. Yet another loss for the Black Caps and Manager Bugs Malone must be pulling his hair out.

New Zealand 8 - 210
S Flemming 54 S Warne 2 - 32
J Oram 53* S Watson 2 - 38

Australia 4 - 211
M Hayden 54 J Oram 2 - 34
M Hussey 47 S Bond 2 - 52
