It sure would be Australia A. And anyways, I don't know what you mean by 2nd XI, morgieb. A completely different team, an A team or only some different players?

[Prince EWS]

M.Sinclair*

Okay, so what do I have to do to make the current team unavailable, short of assassinating them all?

 

[bryce]

?
Are you suggesting Sinclair went on the England tour

 

[Athlai]

Food poisoning, chop off a few fingers, drugging, kidnap, some manslaughter.

Na he has an unholy love of Sinclair mate and just means "okay so how do I make this team the first XI" as he wants Sinclair to play.

 

[bryce]

Southee (not quite first yet)

He's as about as first team as Daniel Vettori. Martin, Mills & Southee are our only first team seamers atm.

Haha ok, so he obviously missed watching Sinclair bat in the home series against England *shudders*

Franklin > Southee IMO.

I think he made a clip of all the highlights actually.

Bryce actually made him captain - that's what I was referring to.

Well he would be the most experienced.

 

[Prince EWS]

Well he would be the most experienced.

Yeah. Even me, quite possibly his biggest fan, wouldn't ever think of him as captaincy material though. He's a bit weird and temperamental, as a cricketer anyway.

I may put that in my siggy
