I see Chris Cairns has been having a good morning - 82 off 47 balls! We've just bowled out NZ for 386. I played against Cairns once, when Warwick played a 1 day friendly against Nottinghamshire - we lost in the final over; needing 15 to win, fell 6 short. I can remember it for three things - 1) it was a very quick wicket and I got Tim Robinson out with a bouncer, 2) mooing at Cairns the big slogger and 3) running down the track and getting stumped off Andy Afford for a fourth ball duck in the run chase!
