Shane Bond flies the flag

With Shoaib Akhtar potentially banned and Steve Harmison spraying the ball about with reckless abandon, we need every fast bowler we can get.

Fortunately Shane Bond's still flying the flag. He touched-up the lowest ever bowling average in one-day internationals by taking 3-45. Crucially, he removed Mohammad Yousuf for 71 and the dangerous Abdul Razzaq shortly after.

That's two games in a row that Shane Bond's played now. It must be some sort of a record. They should LITERALLY wrap him up in cotton wool between matches. He shouldn't be allowed cutlery to eat with either. You never know.

Bond certainly has soemthing about it. He's already 31, which is a shame, but if he goes injury-free for a few years he'll become an alltime Kiwi great.

Nice piece on him (Premium Bond) - http://www.third-umpire.com/

Hey -nice post but I saw him bowl. Nothing too special. He got his wickets more due to the match pressure and situation on the batsman then his own bowling....


But lets see how long he can last...he's quite injury prone
