Johnson-Styris Row should make the 2nd Aus-NZ ODI a Lively One

The Mitchell Johnson-Scott Styris row towards the end of the Australia-New Zealand 1st One Dayer at Napier has definitely raised the interest levels in the ongoing One Day series between the two Trans-Tasman rivals. The Kiwis have a way of imbalancing the Aussies even when their much stronger opponents are at their peak performance levels – Australia came to New Zealand having not lost a single game this summer, and here they have already lost two matches in a row now. Probably that’s what bugged Mitchell Johnson…
New Zealand captain Daniel Vettori missed the last game due to a neck injury, and if he returns to the side for the 2nd One Day tomorrow, that should only add to Rickey Ponting’s problems. The Australians have not fared too creditably against the wily Kiwi spinner in the past, and more importantly, he is a shrewd captain – definitely one of the best in the business today.
Four more games remain in the Chappell-Hadlee Series. With the big brother down 0-1, we can expect more sparks to fly tomorrow. This is what Shane Watson had to say after calls from everywhere to tone down things:
” We’re always going to be aggressive. That’s how we play. “
So you better not miss the live cricket and fireworks at the Eden Park tomorrow.
