Anyone here fancy a dabble on NZ at $3.20? They have been well competitive so far and it looks like the Aussies are possibly cashing this one out, sending Ponting and Hussey to the showers for the decider. Clarke is also questionable to play as well.
With South Africa on the brain for the boys in yellow, I could definitely see NZ pipping this one. Australia has made two call ups for Ponting and Hussey and they are not even close to the level which is departing. NZ makes four changes and they look to be tactically solid, although, to be honest, I am not as familiar with the NZ side.
All-in-all, $3.20 looks way too high a price for this 5th ODI, especially if the Kiwis can get the chase.
I will have to live up to my screen name with this one:
Heart - Australia to Win Head - New Zealand @ $3.20

Gun7, you're right. I heard they were resting out on Sunday and assumed that was for the 5th ODI. Argh. That's Friday. My bad. With the time difference, I sometimes do that.
Okay, I found the teams:
Australia (probable) 1 Michael Clarke, 2 Brad Haddin (wk), 3
Ricky Ponting (capt), 4 David Hussey, 5 Michael Hussey, 6 Callum
Ferguson, 7 Cameron White, 8 James Hopes, 9 Mitchell Johnson, 10 Nathan
Bracken, 11 Ben Hilfenhaus.
New Zealand (probable) 1 Brendon McCullum (wk), 2 Martin
Guptill, 3 Peter Fulton, 4 Ross Taylor, 5 Grant Elliott, 6 Neil Broom,
7 Kyle Mills, 8 Daniel Vettori (capt), 9 Tim Southee, 10 Jeetan Patel,
11 Iain O'Brien.
At any rate, I still like New Zealand here, especially at the price given. I know Australia should win this final ODI, but $3.20 is waaay too high for a squad that had already proven it can win here and now.

5.17 pm QLD: Finally, some news out of Brisbane. The covers are still on, there's some slight drizzle, and the groundsmen are out. They've taken off a few pegs but the big covers are yet to come off
5.25 pm QLD: The big covers are now coming off. This is certainly a good sign as the cut off time - 6.47 pm - is still more than an hour away. They're trying to salvage a 20-over-a-side game here. Lets see if it materializes.
5.32 pm QLD: Great news guys! We finally have a game! The toss is expected to be held in around 15 minutes, and the game will start at 6.15 pm QLD time. We are still awaiting the details pertaining to how many overs each side will have to bat, and we'll have them for you as soon as we hear something from
