2024–25 NZ domestic season

Williamson's first first class game for ND since 2019. Probably the last he will play with Southee and Wagner too. Nice article about it and having Watling as his coach:

“It is special,” Williamson said. “This is where Tim and I have grown up, coming through the ranks here. And you always feel an ND man... you always follow it pretty closely. So it is nice when you have the opportunity to play.”

Not sure what the go is with Nick Greenwood. He was down to bat 4, but now coming in below van Beek. Wellington have a long tail, so it's odd to pick a batsman to do this. Seems a straight swap of Younghusband and Greenwood in the batting order... Unless the scorecard's wrong.

Probably mistake online by the scorers
.
I did notice the order of the 12 at bottom of the scorecard didn't match what the online scoring started with.

Or absent injured.

Another thing I have got in a huff about this morning, probably has a sensible explanation.

5 wicket haul for Paul!

The slow play from CD hasn't worked. Or it's a dastardly deck.

Paul certainly has a very nice action, smooth and repeatable. Not exactly a like for like, but shades of young Doug Bracewell.
