Reference: DCDL-0016280

Description: The cartoon shows two heaps of ashes with cricket caps on top. The cap on the larger (Australian) heap has donkey ears from which dangle corks surrounded by flies and the smaller heap represents New Zealand. Text above reads 'The NZ & Australian cricket teams are smokin'. The words 'THE ASHES' are writ large across the frame. A second version has text reading 'The NZ & Australian cricket teams are playing with matches'. Refers to a dire assessment by former England all-rounder Andrew Flintoff who says of his one-time Ashes foes after they were soundly beaten, that the Australia cricket side is in "disarray" and won't recover unless Warne reprises his match-winning ability. The 41-year-old Warne played the last of his 145 Tests against England nearly four years ago, but Flintoff is adamant the spin great can reinvigorate the ailing Aussies. The former New Zealand cricket coach David Trist says of the Black Caps that it's time for a complete review of game and it's administration in the wake of a dismal string of results in India and Bangladesh. Two versions of this cartoon are available Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).

Description: A Black Cap which looks like a waka slowly sinks into the sea with a 'glug, glug, glug'. Text reads 'BLACK CAPSize'. Context; on 11th December 2010, the Black caps set a record for 11 straight ODI (One Day International) defeats in the sub continent. Calls for many of the players to be axed from the team are now starting. The Black Caps are currently (on recent form) one of, if not the worst, team playing right now. Blackcaps captain Dan Vettori has been replaced as coach for the Black Caps by John Wright. Vettori says 'if you lose 11 games in a row people want change and this was part of that, which is fair enough'. Vettori dismisses criticism he was too influential and needed to be "depowered".

Description: The New Zealand Black Caps Cricket Team march through shoulder-high grass and are considered 'Easy Prey' by Indian hunters who sit high on a huge elephant with their weapons at the ready.

The reason the Black Caps were considered 'easy prey' was because of their performance in the Bangladesh ODI (One Day International) cricket series which resulted in a 4-0 win against New Zealand.
