Apart from constant breakdowns to injury nothing has happened to him... it seems as soon as he gets a few games back he has another injury problem..for new zealands sake i hope he gets back asap and can stay injury free for a few years... this may see them be a little more competitive!!! ------------- 5-0 You Beauty!!!!!

All other bowlers struggle against AUS than other countries except Vettori and Bond. As I can remember he has his top two or three performances against AUS. (correct me if I am wrong.) Argubly no other bowler has disturbed Austrailia as him in past few years. ------------- Don't argue with fools. They'll drag you down to their level and then beat you with experiance |

Flintoff & Harmison But yes you are correct in a sense by saying that Bond has had his best moments against OZ, but in ODI's only. His ODI form against us has been phenominal, but he has played only 2 tests against us for a return of 3 wickets, thanks to injury, so it will be interesting to see what happens when he gets a chance to unleash in a whole series. ------------- 5-0 You Beauty!!!!!

His chronic back problems just don't seem to be going away. I can't believe NZ overbowled him after his comeback , but he didn't last a single test match here in SA in April.
It's tragic , he really is a classy bowler and NZ lack penetration when he's absent , let's hope he's back very soon. ------------- Mental disintegration works for me !! |

AH Clapo ! I know it hurts. Bad memories huh ! Anyways , Shane Bond , New Zealand needs him badly. A Deadly bowler and Aus proved to be the worst to suffer from him. A strike rate of 38 in tests with an average of 21.53 and average 4.47 wkt per match from 14 matches. A strike rate of 26 in ODI's with an average of 18.63 and average 1.93 wkt per match from 45 matches. I remember that world cup performance 6/23 against and that was pure class. Seeing those aussies stumps rattled from share pace made me laugh. Its the best ODI bowling display I've seen in my life. ------------- In troubled times, being philosophical helps a great deal, it helps you to remain sane and not do any further damage. |

What happened to Ian Butler, who is a decent fast bowler?[/QUOTE] Firstly about Butler, i heard on the radio that after the massive blow out his spine had last season, he is going to bowl slower and work on his batting....such a waste of talent. As for bond, susposedly he has had a knee injury niggle, but is near fully fit and should be roaring in for the Champions Trophy. |

Well here is his run down, he had back problems since a teen, proberly from trying to bowl too fast, so he gave up cricket after his 3 or 4 stress fracture in his spine. Then he became a Police officer, during his training he got really strong and start bowling again. he played in England for abit, in first grade cricket were he broke the record for the most wickets in a season. Then he returned back to New Zealand to finish his police training and continued to play cricket. After awhile he made it to the black caps and dominated the 2001-02 VB series in australia. But he got a stress fracture in his foot and missed 6 months of cricket. He return to smash the west indies (the first time NZL had beaten the WI in WI) and got man of the series. then he did the same to the indians and was one of the best bowlers in the world cup. But after, he got another stress fracture in his back and missed the rest of the 2003 season. He tried to return for the england tour of 04, but devolped another stress fracture. The only way to play again was to have massive back surgery in Australia. It seem his back wasn't gonning to heal by itself due to perment damage, so they took bone off his hip, stuck it on the damage vertebre and bolted this spin back together. he miss all of 04 and most of 05 recovering. He start bowling again at the start of 05 and play international cricket again agaist Zimbabwa, where he was man of the series in both the test matches and the tri odi with india.Then he played agaist south africa in a few ODI's, but didn't do very well. Right before New Zealand were about to play australia in the chappel-hadlee matches, he pinged a hammy in training and didn't play the three matches. Also I heard he was a bit sick. Next be did well agaist Sri Lanka in the odi's and agaist the West Indies in the tests and odi's picking up a few MOM, but he hurt his knee in the west indies test. He try to recover for the test in south africa, but he couldn't, now his knee is 100% his back is in perfect, and were waiting to see how he does in the icc trophy. hopefully he stays fit for the VB series and the World cup. I wish i could go back in time to tell me to drink more milk as a kid, his bones must be brittle. Hopefully i got that right, and don't tell me about more poor Spelling, grammar, punctuation etc, I Don't Care. |

He has such a beautiful action, the pace, the accuracy, the movement - brillaint. That 6-for against Aust in the WC '03 (I was watching it on TV live and was amazed/almost in tears; and i have the DVD of the WC and I have seen it a no. of times) . He is brilliant - it is a shame he is so injury prone and that he was only founud a couple of yrs ago (he is a cop) - when he should have been sort after 10 yrs ago; now he is 31 yo and time is cathcing up on him. ------------- |

He normally pitches it short and I think he has noticed that when he was very young, and since he was not very good at pitching it at good lenght, he improved this shorter delivery a lot expesciallu with his pace. He is afterall the 3rd fast bowler in the world right now. ------------- |

The way you bowl is all about where you grow up, shane lives in Christchruch were the wickets play pretty low, some he has grown up bowling short of a lenth, aiming for top of off stump, when he plays on hard pitches, were the ball bounces more, the ball will go further above the stump.
