    *Official* New Zealand vs Sri Lanka- White Ball Tour of SL- November, 2024

    In NZC comms on Sri Lanka tour announcement they mentioned McConchie's unavailability, so assume Foxcroft took McConchie's spot. With Ravindra and Phillips now in top 7 batting spots and bowling part time spin, and McConchie as backup (although 32 years old, so only another 2-3 seasons) perhaps...

    England in New Zealand 28 Nov-18 Dec 2024 - 3 Tests

    I feel sorry for Duffy, he was in the test squad two years ago after Henry and Boult not available, lost out in playing XI to Tickner (OK) and Kuggeleijn (argh), and assume now he will carry drinks for 1st test then get dropped from squad. If Sears returns from injury, and Foulkes and Kris...

    England in New Zealand 28 Nov-18 Dec 2024 - 3 Tests

    and also good for Kris Clarke, playing alongside Southee for a season could help push him into Black Caps by end of next season - depending on success / lack of injuries for Smith and Foulkes.

    2024–25 NZ domestic season

    #9 Chu now 2nd innings top scorer at 19*. At least he won't need to panic when joined by today's #11 Cumming who is fresh off a 72 (79) batting at #7 for Otago A last week.

    2024–25 NZ domestic season

    ... and then your captain sends in a 2nd night watchman, which means Chu (85 in first innings, lots of time batting with #10, missed on a possible century by attacking with #11 at the other end) comes out at #9 in 2nd innings ...

    NZ Domestic Selector 24/25

    All picked. Question for @Athlai, from our 13 is there any need to pick a starting 11 and 2 reserves? Or do all 13 score points then lowest scoring 2 players each game / across season ignored?

    2024–25 NZ domestic season

    Not for CD. Bonus points are taken at end of innings or at 110 overs, and at 110 overs CD were 8-312. And 9th wicket gets the 4th bowling point, so perhaps some sense declaring 8 down to avoid giving away 4th bowling point, but not 9 down.

    2024–25 NZ domestic season

    I assume same reason as Seifert Neesham etc - these players have turned down NZ / domestic contracts as they are looking for T20 league contracts, and NZC want to develop backup players who are available for all NZ games / tours. Obviously a different approach if you are an automatic pick in...

    At least we all have 11 picks done ... if rest of 12th player picks not done by Mon 10:30 perhaps we just use 12th 13th players from Plunket Shield round 2 onwards.
