I wouldn't have Broom at three, he bats at four or five for Otago generally. The number three's in NZ are: Daniel Flynn, Brad Patton (was Sinclair), Greg Todd, James Marshall (when Flynn's away), Neil Parlane, Johan Myburgh/Peter Fulton and Richard Jones.
All the old buggers seem to be number threes.
Realistically the options are Flynn, Fulton, Patton, Marshall and Todd. (Myburgh aint qualified)

People are proposing Fulton from this group. I don't mind Fulton. Although he didn't do well at 3 on the tour to australia a short time ago. Maybe he should get another chance.
Are our options restricted to number 3's
How about Guptil at 3.
If we want to keep investing in Guptil which most people including myself seem to want because he has so much talent - maybe he is better at 3. Guptil's strike rate seems to be consistent with a number 3.
