    ***Official*** New Zealand in Bangladesh

    Out of interest, who would you rather see bowling to Australia in Test matches? IMO Franklins more likely to get wickets, but at what cost? Mills keeps a tight line but is he a threat with the old ball?

    ***Official*** New Zealand in Bangladesh

    Obviously, there is alot more likely contenders for seam bowling spots, in fact other than one opening bat that is the only real current area of contention. Yes he does deserve to be persevered with, form providing...

    ***Official*** New Zealand in Bangladesh

    You are right(not crazy). I was only pushing for him to be replaced if other seamers out-perform him. If Mills has a stellar Test season then i'll deserve all the paying out I get. It may be some peoples belief(obviously me for one) that other bowlers are potentially better than him. From a...

    ***Official*** New Zealand in Bangladesh

    Because his bowling doesn't rely on particular conditions to be effective, yes I saw the Aus Test but believe he's progressed. Hopefully he gets a Test or two, if he provides failure then feel free to pay me out:p His career has been curtailed by injury, but obviously he would need a huge...

    ***Official*** New Zealand in Bangladesh

    He just looks like the sorta guy who always gives 100% and never stops charging in, imo injury is the only thing that could halt his rise, he's already had the tough learning experiences and he posseses a heck of alot of good qualities. One of the main reasons I like him is imo he could...

    Is there a ball-by-ball somewhere? Think Corrin is gonna take hands of the year, will set qualifying at 15 attempted catches

    Aye. Found myself warming to some vintage Costigan , "there's a bit of action up in the fishtank" + "the ex-pat Kiwi's have come out of the woodwork for this one"

    The seamers who spun

    Gary Sobers anyone?:p I remember Scott Styris announcing that he was switching to off-spin, though he soon must have realised he was crap at it.

    ***Official*** New Zealand in Bangladesh

    Yeah no need at the moment, just personally long-term in the Test side I would like to see O'Brien replace Martin & Franklin replace Mills. I am not predicting that will happen, just that would be my preferred attack(with Southee). But who really knows Martin & Mills may now be bowling better...

    ***Official*** New Zealand in Bangladesh

    Because he is a medium pace along the wicket bowler who is **** with the old ball against quality batsmen. However, there is no doubt that he has improved his consistency . For mine, you saying O'Brien trumps Mills in pretty much every aspect of seam bowling is a much more ridiculous statement...

    ***Official*** New Zealand in Bangladesh

    Not now but down the track, like when Franklin is back. imo O'Brien looks alot more likely to take wickets than Mills, to say the least I wouldn't be too sad if Mills eeked out of the Test side, but obviously that wouldn't be a chance of happening if the other seamers' didn't perform. Not...

    ***Official*** New Zealand in Bangladesh

    So did Shane Bond:cool: I'm picking O'Brien to gain incumbency in the Test side this season, and would prefer to see Mills solely as an ODI specialist, with Southee to take his spot in the Test team sooner or later and hopefully Franklin to spearhead with him. Like the look of this bottom five...

    ***Official*** NRL 2008 Thread

    For mine Cronulla & Manly have always been two of the Warriors bogey teams, this will be the test. Wonder what the prince is paying to run at least one in. Also, if the Sharks win this weekend, how good would they have played?
