Moving on now from the World Cup I think its important to keep the winning mentality and try to take it to England where conditions will suit our team down to the ground.
Vettori has retired from all forms. Mills and McCullum have question marks as well.
As I live in WA Im not right up there with all performers in NZ. Do we persevere with Hamish Rutherford opening in tests or slot Guptil back in to add to his 30 odd test matches.
Who do we replace Vettori with ? Nathan McCullum will be there for the ODIs but who else to take for the tests ? Todd Astle ? Ish Sodhi , Craig ?
What about an opening batsman to replace Macca if he retires before England ODI series ? Im a fan of Colin Munro. Been going big recently and I thunk he needs another chance. Can be converted to opener with a strike rate of 98.
My ODI side
Martin Guptil
Brendon McCullum/Colin Munro ?
Kane Williamson
Ross Taylor
Grant Elliot
Cory Anderson
Luke Ronchi
Nathan McCullum
Tim Southee

Test Side - Macca will be in depends if he opens or bats at 5/6
Tom Latham
Hamish Rutherford/Brendon McCullum
Kane Williamson

Tim Southee
Ish Sodhi
