    **Official** Chappell-Hadlee Series

    I hope Fleming isn't rested, although if he needs medical attention I guess they won't have a choice. The CH series is his last chance to actually find some decent form before the World Cup. (It hurts me that I'm even saying this about my favourite player but,) If it's even possible for him...

    ***Official*** Commonwealth Bank Tri-Series

    Someone mentioned to me that Ryder had disciplinary issues a couple of years back and that's why Bracewell isn't selecting him. I hadn't heard that. Has anyone else heard that? What was the deal? It seems a bit of a stupid reason when we so clearly need someone like him at the top of the...

    Franklin just weakens both our batting and our bowling. He shouldn't be there. I think Ryder should be in and CANNOT understand why he's been ignored. How does Bracewell not see that we need to strengthen our batting order? (Don't anyone answer that - I already know why he can't see it)

    ***Official*** Commonwealth Bank Tri-Series

    Gilchrist is probably the most honest cricketer there is. Even without replays I'd trust it was out just on his say-so. Looking at the replays - it was close but definitely out.

    ***Official*** New Zealand in South Africa

    That doesn't really change the fact that a huge number of cricket fans think McLean's right, Bracewell's selection criteria is a bit out of wack.

    ***Official*** New Zealand in South Africa

    I liked this bit of that article best "Ideally, when you're up against the best teams in the world, you want your best combination on board." So Bracewell, if you think that, why do we all suspect you are going to continue opening with Marshall? :dry:

    How Would You Rank The Teams?

    I'm amazed at the thought that any Kiwi would seriously believe we are the best in the world at cricket, we may wish we were but don't actually think we are. Maybe the odd delusional person thinks we're the best. Most of us are resigned to the fact that we're not.

    I support NZ so I'm always going to say it was a 6! 8-) I was with my Australian friend and she had been gunning for NZ to lose throughout the whole match - that was the turning point for her though and suddenly she was wanting New Zealand to win. She also developed a slight crush on Dion...

    The Basin and the Cake Tin about a million times Palmerston North - can't remember the name of the park but I saw a Wgtn vs Canterbury match there about 8 years ago McLean park in Napier Owen Delany park in Taupo The SCG The Gabba - this was the game that stands out most in my mind. New...

    I'm convinced Bracewell is getting Hamish and James confused. He thinks Hamish is the opening batsman of the family when actually its James 8-) 8-)

    Worst Selectors Of The World

    I prefer Fleming at 3. McMillan anywhere in the side is a horrible thought, definitely not at 3. I didn't used to like McCullum but he's grown on me and I think he deserves his place in the side.

    The era of defensive captaincy

    I'm the same. I'm already celebrating the wicket (or commiserating if we're batting) before I see whether or not the catch has been taken. I expect every catch to be taken. It's not that I'm shocked when I see a catch put down (well maybe I was shocked during the latest NZ/WI test when...

    Smith and Ponting choose Flintoff

    For NZ I'd take McGrath and Dravid

    ***Official*** West Indies in New Zealand

    Following the format I learnt in debating back at school of coming up with a solution instead of just announcing there is a problem. If Vettori is so crap (which I don't believe he is) who should he be replaced with? There is no other spinner in NZ that is better at this point in time. I...
