Agree, Hira is the best of the 3. The other 2 are way off.

lol, were you really watching? Milne bowled about 3 good deliveries all day... overall he was quite disappointing. Weird you'd go out of your way to mention how well he bowled in your review tbh

He's a phaaassst bowler and we desperately want him to start not being ****, that's why.

I have high hopes for Latham now after watching that inning.
blackcaps.co.nz lists his List A average a whopping 42 from just a few knocks (7)
But dissapointingly his FC average is at 25.
Looking into my crystal ball I see that FC average climbing rapidly. Such a beautiful striker of the ball. He's not even 20 yet.
Will definitely get a run for a limited overs NZ team at stage in his career just hope his FC form picks up.

Disagree i spose. Thought he was comfortably the best of the CD seamers. He overdid the slowerballs in his first over, but after that generally bowled a better length than previously and mixed up his pace well.
I don't think Pollard is ready but I definitely think he's an international player of the future. Clean striker, good eye. Hira, you'd suggest his numbers are worthy of it but I don't think he's set for a step up. Didn't make an impact in the CL qualifiers, hasn't been picked for NZ A etc. And Wilson...if he wasn't in pink, Doull wouldn't have any interest in him. I could name a dozen better options.

In commentary today Doully is really campaigning hard for Hira to get picked for NZ

Fair enough, he's been doing the job for years and is the standout bowler of the season so far.

Jeez the Dominion post had strong words for the firebirds today Northern Districts flog floundering Firebirds | Stuff.co.nz
BJ Watling kept and the article speculates he may be the next test keeper.
Trent Boult was made to look unplayable in his first couple of overs yesterday.

Someone tell Jeetan Patel to either become a better batsman or to take his batting less seriously. I think he made 3 runs yesterday. But to watch him walk out to bat you would think he was planning on a century. Lots of high leg kicks to warm himself up. Followed by some vigorous practice shots. And then finally a conference with the other batsman before taking guard.

Should he have just went out there timidly and shouldered his arms FFS.

Just do it like Andy McKay IMO. Just walk out there quickly. Carry the bat in one hand and take guard.
If you were in my club team and you did all those things and made 3 runs you would be fined $10 at least.
