What a match. Two great innings from Gibbs and Fleming. Fleming showed that he was probably the best captain in the past 15-20 years, especially with the resources he had at his disposal. Shame NZ plays matches like these in the pool and quarter final/super 6/8 games and then gets rolled easily (e.g. Pak in '99, Ind in '03 and Sri-L in '07) in the semi's. They have the makings of promising side now though with most players being under 27.
very true, the last decent world cup was 1983, the spirit showed in the final, and to watch the underdog win the way , they did, was truly special , i hope my india does it agin, for the first time, since then, we have 2 allrounders in team, with Harbhajan, not to bad a batsman, good luck team Bharat
