    He dropped another one. (The batsman did get out shortly thereafter however).

    Checked out his site, if it is accurate then it is an amazing asset. Taylor drops 13% of his catches while the best in the world drop 5-6%

    @Virya Make yourself useful son. How many catches has Ross Taylor caught and how many has he shelled. I think I can recall at least 20-30 dropped catches by him. He also catches a shed load. His drop of Ervine last night was a bit annoying.

    Annoying. Ross is standing wide at slip and the catch goes between keeper and slip.

    I think all things considered and unless it is a green seamer I would go with this xi for the time being people returning from injury notwithstanding. I think Corey Anderson showed he doesn't have a test match array of shots in the last tour. These eleven guys are our guys even though Nicholls...

    Kahuna or Ghost?

    I've got you pegged as an Ocker based on your penchant for Kookaburra bats and your first class English skills. You should be proud to be an opener. I think if you asked me to rank from a presitige prespective the batting positions in the Australian test match team. I would list opening the...

    Some more comments and really putting this clip under the microscope. His stance while it is beautiful how still he is, isn't quite right. It looks like he just has one stance that he uses whether you are bowling at him from over the wicket or round the wicket. You can physically see that he is...

    I think there is plenty of evidence he is an opener in that clip based on a couple of deliveries where he withdraws the bat inside the line of the ball. The other thing is, yes, Strawman is correct he will develop further. My own game dramatically improved from year 12 to year 13 and so will...

    Probably rachin (rhymes with Sachin) Ravindra May still only be 17 but I would say in 4 years he may be ready to throw on the furnace Given our successful batsman were all prodigies I would say he could be the next Or of course glen Phillips he tore it up relative to the other kiwis anyway...

    Kahuna or Ghost?

    I guess the newer video of the ghost is even better. I was a bit troubled with how there was a wide handle low down on the grip - this would really bring your bottom hand into play more than most bats. Now that could be a good thing or a bad thing depending on how good you actually are. For a...

    The Boss is in his office. Presently 22(39). If he plays this by the book he will just tick things over until another 100 runs have been added to the team total. No rush he will be thinking.

    Kahuna or Ghost?

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZ37AKP4n-8 Ghost looks like newer technology so would go with that. On the above video it looks like it has more meat than any other blade I have seen as far as 2 10" bats go anyway. I bought a Kahuna some 10 years ago and it has been a brilliant bat.

    Here is the only serious post I will make about Guptil batting at 5. I think there would be a case to be made for it if he were suspect early doors against the new ball but then often had shown once he got past the first ten overs he had a habit of cashing in. In my personaly history of...
