New Zealand accuse Australia of arrogance
The New Zealanders are starting to talk up their chances as Mark Richardson accuses Australia of arrogance after resting Glenn McGrath for the Chappell-Hadlee series. Just imagine if Gilchrist had got his wish and skived off too. I seem to remember the New Zealanders firing broadsides at us last summer before we beat them 5-nil in the one day series and 2-nil in the Test series. In this case, however, I suspect the New Zealand squad would be annoyed as Richardson isn't even playing - he retired last summer. I like to bag the Aussies whenever I see a fault but I don't have to face up to Brett Lee steaming in with a new ball. Richardson isn't doing his countrymen any favours by riling up the Australian quicks, accusing them of being second fiddle duds behind McGrath. However, it's not just retired players that are talking tough. Chris Cairns has announced himself ready to play Australia in the Chappell-Hadlee series:
Cairns added that after New Zealand's success against Australia in rugby union and league, beating them at cricket would be "bloody fantastic".I'd say that after the Black Cap's recent run of losses, beating us at cricket is bloody unlikely!

They'll be bloody lucky to get nil John. Heard Fleming isn't playing either - just about their only player who would get into another test side. Prediction: a century for Vettori... but not as a batsman.

Yes, bad loss with Fleming gone. Maybe that's why they left McGrath behind, to keep things even stevens. Or maybe McGrath lost interest cause he wouldn't get to target Fleming like he's done on previous series.
