DIRK-NANNES

U19 Vice-Captain
In case you haven't seen, Jimmy got a ton batting @ 7 last game, along with 3 wickets in each innnings @ 3.81 and 1.43 RPO.
Pretty awesome all-round performance :happy:

Patel gone for 39, time for Marto to smack around the spinners

Apparently N McCullum took 5fa and Williamson took 3fa in a warmup match for NZ A in India. No info on how Bond did, or if he played but apparently the seamers bowled too short.

The scorecard is on the blackcaps website. Bond didn't play, the openers (How and Redmond) got 40's, wonderboy got run out for a duck and Southee bowled 12 overs for 13 runs.

Broom with a ton to see NZ A win by 1 wicket. Diamanti batted at number 11 :blink:

Broom is quality.

Quality that still managed to get out 'hit wicket' though. Wonder how he managed that.

Interesting that N McCullum got 5 while Nethula couldn't get any wickets.

Williamson seems to be really going through a bad trot ever since various people started calling for him to be included in the NZ team. Greg Hay-esque even. Meanwhile Watling has scored a few runs lately - wonder if he'll be the next on the NZ opener merry-go-round.

To be fair, Williamson was run out, it's not like it was a technical deficiency or he couldn't handle the pace/spin or anything. Also, he failed in a few pre-season OD games in Australia. I wouldn't be getting that worried about it since he is best suited to the longer version of the game anyway. He'll come good, no doubt. He's too talented not to.
