I'd probably consider getting Latham to do it.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

I'd probably consider getting Latham to do it.

Yeah that's a point. Carey did well in Pakistan.

No idea who would win a 5 match series. But would be supremely entertaining, also believe would be a relatively a low scoring affair.

No idea who would win a 5 math series. But would be supremely entertaining, also believe would be a relatively a low scoring affair.

I think questions could be posed on the Taylor series or the McLauren series to get a good idea..

You somehow missed both NZ's indisputably greatest wicket keeper bat and opener. Yikes.

Conway?

I always preferred BM, good keeper, great cricketing mind (his series as captain in England was such a stand out) and a match changing batsman. Ronchi or Latham were the other options for me.

Dunno about openers kiddo.

 

[TheJediBrah]

Pretty long tail for an ATG side too. McCullum on down all a spot too high

**** me please put Ronchi in an ATG kiwi side I want to see Fuller Pilch explode

 

[ataraxia]

McCullum and down all a spot too high

You sure?

Hadlee's a 9? Wagner's an 11? Boult's a 12?

 

[TheJediBrah]

No way is McCullum a 6 or Vettori a 7 in an ATG side. Way too long a tail.

I dunno if it's that bad of a tail though. Those guys can bat. Vettori and Hadlee were legit all rounders and Bmac could always make a difference.

Remember this is NZ, it's hardly going to have the creme de le creme.

He could easily bat 4-6, but there have to be some batsmen in there too haha
