Umpires vex Vettori

AFP, Birmingham
New Zealand captain Daniel Vettori turned his fire on the umpires after his team were denied the chance of a victory following a farcical finish to the second one-day international against England.
The Black Caps, chasing a revised target of 160 off 23 overs in a rain-affected clash here at Edgbaston, were 127 for two at the end of 19 overs with Brendon McCullum, one of the world's best one-day batsmen, 60 not out.
Provided they didn't lose another wicket, they needed just seven runs off the 20th over -- the minimum required to constitute a match -- to win, albeit under dark skies and with rain falling, as it had done for several overs.
Australian umpire Steve Davis and his English on-field colleague Ian Gould then took the players off in a match already interrupted and delayed by rain.
England took a seemingly slow 83 minutes to bowl 19 overs but Vettori said it was the umpires, not Paul Collingwood's men, who were at fault.
"You just need the umpires to take control of the game and dictate the play," Vettori said after
Wednesday's 'no-result' which left New Zealand still 1-0 down in the five-match series.
"There was obviously a bit of gamesmanship going on. You can't attack anyone for that but you need constant monitoring of the overrate."
International Cricket Council (ICO match referee Javagal Srinath insisted England had not done anything to warran t dh>a plinary act o n.
"England were not in breach of the over-rate," the former India fast bowler told reporters.
"They had enough allowances. There were a few referrals to the third umpire and injuries."
Vettori, whose side were beaten 2-0 in a three-Test campaign by England earlier this tour and lost Friday's lone I\venty20 by nine wickets before suffering a 114-run thrashing in last weekend’s opening one-dayer, said this result felt like a defeat.
"I think this is a game we would have won had we been able to play the allotted overs or even get through that 20th over.
"There's a sense of disappointment in the dressing room, it's almost like a loss. It's been a tough tour."
In last year's World Cup final, eventual winners Australia and Sri Lanka were obliged to come back on in near total darkness in
Barbados because several of cricket's most experienced officials forgot that 20 overs had been bowled in the second innings.
Wednesday's finish may not have been as embarrassing but it still left a bad taste and was yet another example of cricket's unrivalled ability to avoid declaring winner of a match.
But Davis, also speaking on behalf of Gould, defended his decisions. "For consistency with our rulings earlier in the day, we had to come off. The two teams were struggling to stand up.
"The number of balls left shouldn't come into it, if that's the way the conditions are," he also told Sky Sports.
Despite rain being an everpresent threat, there was still a gap of 30 minutes between the innings when it might have been possible for the teams to turn round in 10 in a bid to beat' the weather.
"That's the standard one-day international playing condition. We couldn' t go below that,''said Davis.
New Zealand all-rounder Graht Elliott had more reason than most to be frustrated by the outcome.
On his one-day international debut, the South Africa-born medium-pacer took three for 23 in five overs as England were bowled out for 162 off the last ball of their allotted 24 overs.
