***Official*** Pakistan in New Zealand 2017/18

123/5
this is the sort of determined bowling and fielding performance where if the pakistan top order falls in a heap again, they'll be deservedly fearing for their lives next net session

and?

Before the knock outs in 2015 Guptill had done zilch in world cups so i don't really see how you can have him clearly ahead.

weirdly our best world cup performers during their careers have been one obvious guy in 2015 (Baz) and then the more middle pack nz batsmen like Elliott and Styris.
Guptill has overall world cup average of 65 over 2 world cups. Clearly a better performer than Ross taylor at world cups.

Scott styris was a superstar at world cups. Also generally underrated at odis.

Glenn Turner and Martin Crowe have the best World Cup records of elite NZ ODI batsmen

double centuries against the west indies on the westpac stadium quarter final execution block will do that
That was a great innings. It was still a world cup knockout game and a special innings.

He has a better record than taylor at world cups even if you exclude that innings. That would be a silly thing to do anyway.
Taylor's world cup record is fairly misreable if you exclude the superb century vs pakistan in 2011.

Taylor can thank Kami Khatmal for that.

But boy, was that an innings to watch. Taylor bloody murdered shoaib and co

Crowe was the best player in the 1992 tournament. Guptill rated behind Boult, Elliott and McCullum in the NZ team alone in 2015

Anyway Williamson, Taylor and Crowe would be guaranteed selections along with Hadlee and Bond in all-time NZ ODI team. Guptill wouldn't be guaranteed as Nathan Astle might be selected to bowl 5 or 6 overs
