    *Official* Compaq Cup 2009 in Sri Lanka

    Well Brendon wasn't that much of a batsman throughout his career, he is another agressive batsman and his stats show it. Played 154 ODI's,averaged 28.31, and only has fifteen 50's and a single 100. Those are slogger stats. Both brothers have a similar type of batting technique and they are both...

    *Official* Compaq Cup 2009 in Sri Lanka

    And if you look at stats from other players with the same batting style as his you'll see that they haven't been real good at the starting of their careers. His brother Brendon wasn't even that much of a player when he first came. Ah, the good old days when Fleming,Cairns, and McMillan were around.

    *Official* Compaq Cup 2009 in Sri Lanka

    I know O' Brien is not on the ODI squad im just telling you how i think a better chemistry would work out. N.

    *Official* Compaq Cup 2009 in Sri Lanka

    NZ batting order B. McCullum should not open in ODI's in my opinion, it would be better if he stayed in the middle-lower order to provide more depth in the batting order in the late overs. An Oram-McCullum type partnership would be nice to watch or a Vettori-McCullum partnership. Guptill-Ryder...
