Oh, only $5, as that was all I had available in my bet365 account. But its more the principle of the damn thing. Well, bad things and threes and all that...sigh.

Yep, with all due respect to Zimbabwe cricket scoring runs against their A team really doesn't count for a lot when it comes to international cricket - well it shouldn't anyway. He still looks to be the same batsmen that left international cricket in early 2009, his dismissal today was vintage Jamie How.

He overly exaggerates the shots he plays especially the straight drives and stuff. I remember that was the flaw he had when he was dropped. He kept getting caught behind.

Bahnz, if Sinclair ever gets yet another recall, I will give you $5 to bet on him scoring 250 or lower.

Lol..wouldn't go that far..Astle is still my favourite NZ ODI batsmen.

Yeah i would agree with that. Struggling to think of many more Cairns, McMillan.Astle
Turner/Fleming
Crowe
Taylor
Styris
Twose
Top 6
Athlai

McMillan doesn't quite make it, get Cairns in at 7. Baz 8 and Vettori 9.
What a tail!
Astle
Turner/Fleming
Crowe
Taylor
Styris
Twose
Cairns
McCullum
Vettori
Hadlee
Bond
For sake of team balance you could probably put Harris in for Twose and bat Cairns up if you want 5 genuine bowling options. Astle and Styris wouldn't be the worst 10 though.

My vague memories of being a cricket fan in the 90s revolve around a love for Crowe and Twose.

Never saw Crowe bat at least that i could remember. What was he like compared to the two at the wicket now?

Haha yeah thats when Sinclair became my favourite player along with Astle.By vague memories I mean I was an ankle biter. My first non-vague memory is of Sinclair's double hundred debut meaning that cartoons wouldn't be shown on TV 3.

Time for him to add consistency. If he gets a score here it would go a long way to cementing his place in the side for the WC.****ing hell would someone go on?
Looking at you Jimmeh.
