Cricketer Of The Year
Hmmm...nothing on Cricinfo yet.
I'm glad we won't be seeing Gillespie bowling his rubbish, but surely they could have picked Mason instead of Hitchcock?Was announced on Radio Sport just now. Should be on the net very soon. I'll post the source.
But from what I heard Sinclair and Gillespie are gone. So Ryder is likely to be used at 6.
The Twenty20 squad is: Daniel Vettori (captain), Brendon McCullum (vice-captain/wicketkeeper), Jesse Ryder, Jamie How, Ross Taylor, Scott Styris. Jacob Oram, Peter Fulton, Kyle Mills, Paul Hitchcock, Chris Martin, Tim Southee.I'm glad we won't be seeing Gillespie bowling his rubbish, but surely they could have picked Mason instead of Hitchcock?
Sinclair seems to have got somewhat of a raw deal... again.
Thats just the ODI and Twenty20 team I think?I'm glad we won't be seeing Gillespie bowling his rubbish, but surely they could have picked Mason instead of Hitchcock?

Oh, right, Mason's in as well. OK.The ODI squad is: Daniel Vettori (captain), Brendon McCullum (vice-captain/ wicketkeeper), Jesse Ryder, Jamie How, Ross Taylor, Scott Styris, Peter Fulton, Jacob Oram, Kyle Mills, Paul Hitchcock, Chris Martin, Michael Mason, Jeetan Patel.

Guess Hitchcock has only been picked as a Bond replacement. But surely there must be someone better?
His doesnt play the 4-dayers. One day and twenty20 games.Haha, Hitchcock has played 10 FC games in his whole career!!!.
How on earth is this?
You say this as if it's a problem unique to New Zealand. Happens pretty much everywhere, and it's one of the ultimate situations.Surprised to see Ryder get his Black Cap at last - he certainly doesn't deserve it based on either his form this season or throughout his career.
Yet again the selectors have chosen a batsman with a fine First Class record and a crap List-A record and thrown him into the ODI squad. When he fails, that's his whole career up the spout. I simply cannot believe that our selectors continue to make this fundamental error, year after year.
