What about Darren Lehmann? I'd take Boof now if he feels like getting his hands dirty and doing some practical exercises for a while outside of his coaching.

No news from Auckland. I presume theegyptian has shut down any James Fuller appearance.

 

[Prince EWS]

I love it when you talk about theegyptian.

 

[Kippax]

He is usually the grinch who'll shut down a Kiwi Christmas, theegyptian. Let's face it.

Tough one. I'd like to see WIlliamson dropped personally. Not because he isn't in the top 6 bats. Just they got plenty of strength without him and it would be a cool statement to make.

 

[Flem274*]

haha context?

 

[Prince EWS]

haha context?

Yorkshire had all their Test blokes available and didn't know who to drop from the batting lineup. He suggested dropping Williamson, because England.

 

[BeeGee]

Wagner continuing on his miserable County form into Plunket cricket. At what point does this become a worry?

It may not be an issue when Hesson decides to play two spinners in the UAE tests.

 

[Kippax]

He suggested dropping Williamson, because England.

.

bellend bracewell killing me talking about looking for a replacement captain.

“Australia, for example, have a real void in leaders at the moment so there could be a good opportunity to talk to them about developing one."

Dude your meant to be developing Gloucestershire cricketers to play for England rather than improving Australians or New Zealanders which he seems to spend all his time doing. bellend

 

[Immenso]

With all that stolen ICC money by the big 3, and much of England's cash channeled into the counties, the least they could do is let a county like Gloucester help develop some NZ talent.

Bloody hoarders.

 

[Kippax]

Haha, he'll be in here, in a minute.

Anyway, we all know the Australian domestic thread would be a far less threadbare place if talents like Cribbage and Dan were holed up in there and forced to roll up their sleeves. Ashton Turner would still be a devout and serious young offspinner. Not because it is easier, but because it is hard. #smallerhorizons

[Dan]

$5 on Papps, Mitchell and Devcich please.

norffs batting options skips straight from openers to final over hitters. surely hira misses out and mitchell and derek bat at three and four?

 

[Flem274*]

also it's now confirmed western australia is a south island province.

(we already knew south africa and zimbabwe were auckland suburbs)

 

[Kippax]

NcCullum might be given every chance, just through the Southern schluppiness. Looking for a typical Seddon Park 45* with five sixes from him.

McClenaghan and Milne to be short and wide, feed Brownlie's strength.

Surely Hira doesn't miss out. Almost got Canterbury in the final last season. Will probably bat 3.

 

[theegyptian]

It's nice to know you guys are spending your time thinking about me. Warms the ****les.

Bloody hoarders.

not to mention half the county players are locals from well known counties Austrashire, South Afrihampton and New Zealset. Luke Ronchi's Wellington would blush.

 

[SeamUp]

Noticed Auckland had 7 players born outside New Zealand in their XI the other day. Got to love globalisation.

Tbf, that's relatively reflective of the population of Auckland in general. Just need some players of South East Asian extract to be pushing through. Where's Auckland's Chee Quee?
