Five days a big strain for a bowler as quick as Bond

An injury-plagued Shane Bond's return to Test cricket lasted one match. Writing in the New Zealand Herald, Adam Parore advises Bond to focus on one-day cricket.
He wants 100 Test wickets, but then he should step away from the Test game and concentrate on the ODIs and Twenty20, certainly if he fancies being around for another season or two. It's a shame for Bond and New Zealand cricket, but it seems a no-brainer.
