Studying for the NZ history exam I have on tuesday would be less sucky than this

With Mr Thomas?

Nah, he doesn't take level 3. Never had the (disturbing) privilege of being in one of his classes, though he does pop around occasionally. Mr Dench wasn't around in your time, was he?

No just him.
Peter Thomas is a very funny man. A bit idiosyncratic but that makes him more interesting.
What part of NZ history. The land wars, or the early colonialisation of NZ?

Indeed he is. Pretty entertaining when he goes off at students he doesn't like, there's no holding back.
All of it pretty much up until the early 1900s really, with the guts of it being the 19th century. The land wars are a substantial hunk of it, that's what the internal assessments were both based on. NZ history has been taught very differently throughout the past, from what I've heard.

Yeess, that's how you treat close in fielders.

Nah, have a go Southee. You're going to get done by one pretty soon whatever happens.

Just watching these sub continental bowlers impart spin on the ball is fascinating. I was taught to twist my fingers and turn my hand to impart spin.
These jokers tend to grip the ball in a specific way that when you bowl it a terrific amount of spin get imparted without turning your hand as much.

Franklin... Enough chances? Who would he be replaced with is the question really.
I guess Ryder :P, probably same bowling level also.

McCullum
Williamson
Taylor
Flynn
Ryder
Watling +
Vettori
Bracewell
Southee
Boult
vs South Africa I reckon. Flynn or Ryder at 6 is pretty low really, but thats a good thing I reckon, more depth the better.

We'll see how Jimmy goes in his next effort, but if we had everyone available I don't think Franklin would have played today and he hasn't done himself any favours so far.
Considering who the reserve batsman is I'd give everyone here the series, because to me they're all better players than Nicol. I can see Nicol playing the next test though due to the powers that be deciding his offies will be useful on Sri Lankan pitches.
These two seem to be batting fairly well for tail enders.
