Robbie Schaw is a leg spinner for CD, Lance Shaw is a FM for Auckland.
Not according to cricinfo...but maybe.
Ever faced Davis? So who's this Aces bowler you think should have been picked?I think he's good. Whenever I've trained with him he's actually swung it quite a bit, so I don't know why he can't do that in games (according to posters here). He's got good pace and bounce. I think it's a fair selection.
No matter how much I wish they'd taken an Aces seamer......

Anyone that leaves a spot for him in the aces I suspect.
Yea I faced him about a month ago. He was reasonably quick, but not by any means unsettling. He was erratic and hotheaded. If you talked back to him when he was bowling he started to bowl garbage, from what we saw.
No Aces bowlers are really good enough to be picked, that's the problem.
Umm not really. Lance Shaw and his brother Gareth are both very similar players.
James Fuller is an u19 player who plays for Otago at the moment because he's at Uni there, but his loyalties lie with Auckland I think. He gets good shape away from the right hander and good bounce.
Lockie Ferguson is a raw young talent who's still at school, but on his day he can be extremely uncomfortable to face, he was a non-traveller for nz 19s this year.
Rowan Bezuidenhout is another young one who's taking bucketloads of wickets in club cricket this year. The only problem is that he chucks the **** out of it.

How and what do these guys bowl? Swing, seam, pace? etc etc
Lance and Gareth both swing it, not very quickly though.
Fuller bowls from height, gets good bounce and shapes it away from the righty.
Lockie can bowl rapid on his day. He's a shoulder bowler who has issues with rhythm quite often. He hits the deck hard. When he's really on fire he gets shape away from the righty as well.
Rowan bowls pretty gun-barrel straight but gets some movement off the seam. Also has a pretty quick bouncer.

Was just going to post that - 180/8 is pretty devastating, I wonder what the wicket is like.
Can someone clarify - does England Lions = England A?
Also wonder if there would be more English posters interested in these games if they were in a separate thread, rather than the NZ domestic thread.
I'm 99% sure it does, yea.

Yes the England Lions are England A, although I must say I'm a bit bemused as to why Hoggard wasn't included in the side, guess they must be pushing for a youngish squad.
Yep, that's pretty much spot on.
The only proven domestic players in the NZ lineup are McIntosh, Styris and Hiini. The rest are VERY raw and some arent even regulars in NZ domestic cricket (Allen, Beard, Wilson, Davis).
Eng A play NZ A in two unofficial tests next month.

I am not dreaming. Remember the IQ of the general talkback public and the selectors?
You're dreaming.
Also, McClenaghan only has two n's
