Important innings here for Latham

 

[WindieWeathers]

Latham having a very tough time against this young left-arm quick i'm seeing for the first time named Gavon Brown...lad looks impressive.

 

[Kippax]

Gavon and Odean Brown, eh.

NZ's top 4 really letting its colours burst, and it's bursting brown.

 

[Kippax]

.

WICKET! Watling b G. Brown, yorked; NZL 43-3 (17.4 ov) Latham 20*, Jimmy Neesham is the new batsman

Rain has stopped play at the fall of that wicket

 

[WindieWeathers]

Well i feel like a prophet because i did say the young lefty was impressing and there he goes and bowls Watling with a yorker...43/3 now and the wickets came just before the covers have had to come on for a rain delay.

 

[Kippax]

Yep, Gavon Brown looked genuinely one to watch there.

 

[WindieWeathers]

Odean Brown strikes and Neesham has gone now 46/4

 

[Kippax]

 

[BeeGee]

I like the cut of Gavon Brown's jib.

[Kippax]

Fmd Ronchi top-edges that sweep a lot, for a "great player of spin".

 

[WindieWeathers]

The young man Gavon Brown strikes again and Latham has gone for 33...honestly where has this kid come from? can't believe he hasn't played first class cricket yet...looks a real find this one .

And bloody hell he should have had Sodhi there aswell...the keeper dropped one.

 

[WindieWeathers]

Kippax keep the vids coming mate...brilliant stuff.

Wow, another potential ATG you've spotted!

 

[Beamer]

I have honestly never heard of Gavon Brown. Where the hell has he come from? Good stuff.

Bet New Zealand bowl that Jamaica side out for 12 though. Batting looks awful.

 

[Kippax]

NZ declare at 112/6.

Should be quite a good Sodhi vs. Craig battle, I saw good bounce and bat-pad chances. Hopefully I don't record Boult ripping through youngsters who aren't up to it, before it gets to that.

 

[Meridio]

Anyone have a link to a scorecard? Cricinfo doesn't have one up yet, neither does blackcaps.co.nz

NZ declare at 104/6.

I'm afraid that's what I'm predicting anyway. Though Shacoya Thomas was one of the best opening batsman in the region this season so it will be interesting to see how he does against a class opening attack.

Nah there's just tweets.

Yeah this is a good test for Thomas...he done the business without doubt for CCC so if he can get at least a half century here then that will bode well for him...he should be opening with Kraigg for the A-team after the season he had imo...anyway this is the team from what i understand

Thomas
Jon Ross Campbell (played a few games for Jam last season)
Kenner Lewis (meant to be very aggressive, big hitter)
King (played for the wi u19s at the world cup...meant to be decent)
Palmer (think i remember him playing for CCC but not sure)
Gayle (no not that one!!..this one is a youngster)
Thomas (keeper..meant to be handy with the bar)
Ramaal Lewis
Odean Brown
G Brown
Buchanan
Powell

Yeah not the best top order they could have put out...i mean where is John Campbell? guess he plays the next game..

Not really bothered if NZ blast them out or not...just good to see youngsters like Gavon Brown and 17 year old Ramaal Lewis do well.
