From this morning's paper:

Netherlands score easy 48-run win over Nelson

The Netherlands began the southern leg of their eight-match New Zealand
cricket tour with a comfortable 48-run win over a Nelson XI at Trafalgar
Park, Nelson, yesterday.
  The victory was based on a solid batting display in which West Indian
batsman Rupert Gomes scored an unbeaten 71 runs to top score for the
innings. Opening batsman Peter Cantrell scored 62 to continue his
outstanding tour form, partnering Gomes in a superb 116-run second
wicket partnership.
  Another West Indian, Nolan Clark, added 38 runs with Roland Lefebvre
conributing 27 as the Dutch reached an imposing 252-5 off their 50 overs.
Warwickshire import Michael Burns was Nelson's only successful bowler
taking 3-51 off his 10 overs.
  Captain John Smith and Gavin McRae gave Nelson a steady start. But once
their 83-run opening partnership was borken, Nelson fell gradually behind
the run rate to leave the Netherlands in control.

I could've been wrong (and, if so, I apologize). I got the info from
a call home. I could've got my father's quick summary wrong :-(.

Keyword >> Kapil for manager, Performance.

Hi Murli, 
        I would like some stats for your mentioning that Kapil's
performance is not upto mark. Its a irony that such a remark should come
on the eve of the 7th ODI which India won, in which Kapil gave the best
performance for India both with the bat and the ball.
        I don't know what people expect from him, I wonder if there is a
more consistent performer in the world of cricket, who does as much as
Kapil does with the ball and the bat today.
        Why don't people point fingers at other parasites in the team ?

Well, as far as manager goes, yes, he could be a captain cum manager or
maybe just a playing manager. I think he still has at least a couple of
years in him.

You should think back to the incident of England playing Australia in
Australia requiring 18 to win in the last over with Bruce Reid bowling
and Allan Lamb facing (mostly). England won, can't remember the exact
sequence of events but it included at least one straight low six over
long on, and several overthrows. Perhaps someone else can post the
exact events.

As much as I would like India to do better, on current form, one can

From "finger"

India finished with 207/4 in 50 overs.
Azharuddin 86 n.o
Prabhakar 36
Tendulkar 32
Shastri 21 n.o. (18 balls)
Raman 16
Jadeja 9
Azza's 86 came off 107 balls . A good timely (for his position
in the team) knock.
McMillan was the one who was clobbered . 10 overs 59 runs.
Last 5 overs yielded 50 runs

Not a tough target but respectable.

Well, I like to think I've been following the SL vs NZ series (with regret
:-), and I didn't know anything about this incident, so I guess it wasn't
a big thing back here - but we have had very little coverage really.

On a slightly related topic - this weekend, New Zealand Cricket announced
that the on the tour to NZ by Pakistan and Australia this season, a
third umpire, monitoring television replays, will be used (a la SA vs
India). Reaction from most has been positive.

I hope it goes some way towards alleviating the seemingly inevitable
umpire accusations, an area in which Pakistan in NZ have been unhappy
in the past...

The 4th ODI between India and SA was rained out on Saturday.

A packed stadium (about 30,000) at the Wanderers ground in Johannesburg
waited till quite late in the afternoon before the game was called off.

The teams generously agreed to play the game on Sunday (today) and all
the Saturday tickets are valid for the game today.  This was a spur-of-
the-moment kind of negotiation as far as I can tell.

So the 4th ODI happens today (weather permitting)

Although we are very keen to see the cricket, we are also very pleased
to see the rain.  Besides the Western Cape (around Cape Town), the 
whole of Southern Africa has been in the grip of the most awful drought
in living memory.  There are signs that it is breaking in some parts of
the sub-continent, but lack of rain is still causing great suffering.

I'm sure the network of cricket fans will keep you all up to date with
the progress of the game.

Stay well,

Malcolm

Hey Spaceman, I look forward to reading your .sig, so much so that many a time
I find them more interesting than the article itself.... :--) :--) 

BTW, both the one-line folow-ups you have reacted to -- quite sharply -- most

I agree with Spaceman that we should edit the original post to suit our
follow-up. Perhaps some of us are yet to learn/do not know how to go about
doing it? I know I spoke to a couple of friends/read help to learn how to
reply, edit, etc. when I first began reading newsgroups.

Again the Dutch team has won in NZ!

They played against Canterbury, the hosts lost with 9 runs! Exciting!

Cantrell: 76, 5x4, 2x6
Gomes   : 57, 8x4, 1x6
Clarke  :     6x4, 2x6

The dutch made 233 for 5 in 50 overs, no numbers on Canterbury, the
dutch papers really mess things up.

But for Pakistanis (I am one), nothing short of victory in dramatic
fashion is acceptable.  Old wins are like old condoms -- to be
forgotten!

As far as I'm aware there will be 12 teams in the 1995 World Cup.
