Matt Henry's FC career average is now almost 29! That's mostly blown out by his test record. Averages 24 for Canterbury over his career.

HAWKE'S BAY vs BAY OF PLENTY

BOP won the Hawke Cup last week!, I missed that.

Leopard batting way down the order but opening the bowling.
Tryon scoring big runs in second dig. Did he play for nz u19,s?

Fantastic. A full strength BOP line up would be ridulously good at the moment, featuring Williamson, T Boult, Anderson, Brownlie, Popli & Carter.

Tryon is originally from Zimbabwe, might be another big hitter in the de Grandhomme/Munro mould (looks a bit like it from the videos above):

On the back of a solid prem club, Hawk Cup season Tryon broke into the CD U19s team for the first time last summer.

"I started working on it [technical issues] with Scott Briasco," says the former Napier Boys' High School student who lives with his girlfriend, Tayla Sherwood, in Hastings.

The Zimbabwean-born player, who bowls right-arm offspins, becomes the first Havelock North club national representative since Martyn Sigley in the mid-1990s.

The teen, known to mates as "Marble", arrived in New Zealand as a 5-year-old from Harere with parents, Darel and Mark Tryon, and his two sisters, Gemma, 23, now living in London, and Denise, 21, who is in Perth, where her father works for a train company and mother is looking for work. The Tryons fled their country following the political turmoil in 2000. They lived in Masterton for four years before shifting up here.

CD manager of amateur cricket Briasco says Tryon is an "interesting character who doesn't say very much but possesses very good hand-eye skills".

"He's probably still very front-foot dominant," he says, adding Tryon is working on his timing to rock back to react earlier to shots.

Primarily he feels the teenager needs to employ his shoulders and back more, rather than just his hands in executing drives, something Bay high performance development manager Dale Smidt also honed in a player who "wasn't the easiest person to work with".

"He's very receptive to coaching now and a hard worker so I wish him all the best," Briasco says, adding he'd love to see him prove the selectors wrong in pursuing a national berth.

He suspects two things held Tryon back in the age groups.

One, he perhaps didn't know how to face the shorter-pitched deliveries and, two, whether he exposed himself to coaching to address his shortcomings.


"Potentially he's capable of becoming a good middle-order batsman in the short form of the game because he hits the ball well, can rotate strike, runs well between the wickets, can bowl offspin and all those things."

Although he bats at No3 or 4, Tryon is excited about the prospect of "something different at No 6 or 7".

"At 3-4 you get more time to get your eye in but at 6-7 you have to score pretty quickly," says Tryon, who prefers to get himself into a rhythm before taking an aggressive stance.

Having fallen in love with cricket after his father gave him throw downs here as a child, Tryon didn't follow his family to Perth because the chance of higher honours are better here than the cut-throat Australian environment. The Tryons will be in Darwin to support him in the next few days.

"I'd love to make a career out of it," he says, emphasising he loves all three forms of the code.

You would never find an article like that in the Dom post or the herald. I struggle to think of any conceivable reason why his girlfriend would be named ( unless she is a local celeb )

Why the brothers and sisters were named is also an enigma.

There was a Martin sigley from my peers growing up in Hamilton. I assumed it was him who made the cd team in the 1990s yet they reference havelock north in the article? Same person or not?

I'd be intrigued to know volty's smudge's take on this. Maybe the writer was a fan and wanted us to know who to google :ph34r: (well done Tryon).

Nah I can imagine Anendra Singh just being a bit of an over-sharer and a skeeze tbh. Finding a pair of young Hawke's Bay lovers living together as something a bit 'white mischiefy' and pleasantly confounding to the Indian mind.

Will there be loads of debutants and other yoofs next round?

Finnie going to get a game? I recall seeing him get a big score for Otago A post U19WC stink out? Nathan Smith to debut?

Randell to get a debut for the Dorkland dibbly dobblers? Phillips to get a crack?

Leopard?

I plan to re-use the name Anendra Singh in the following fashion "Your post was Anendra Singh-like". Hopefully it will catch on as a meme.
