Looks like Milne is playing instead - I thought someone said he was injured.

I'm guessing these are not green early-season pitches judging by the scores so far.

Wtf ND, why did Southee not open the bowling? He's the best swing bowler in the country and yet he wasn't given the new ball.

Boult and Arnel with good figures mind, but you'd think Arnel would bowl at first change.

Don't forget he is coming back from injury.

Auckland's middle and middle order always just looks wrong to me. Both them and ND have a habit of playing lots of bowlers and then a few more bits and pieces in the lower middle order too. These two (auckland batsmen) may not be scoring much but at least are not exposing others to this ND attack.

Collapse for CD. Athlai & Heef will be pleased. Phlegm will not. :sleep:

Good start by Boult: 13 overs 2/13

I'll put it up in the original post as well. Cheers to Howsie for finding it.

Didn't realise Corey Anderson was playing for ND. Not bowling I see. I wonder if he's given it up given his injury problems. Would be a huge loss, but I from what I've seen of his batting, he has the talent and strength to make it as a specialist.

Anderson hasn't quit bowling yet, but he's not going to bowl for a while iirc.

Nicol bringing up a ton with a six. Nice.

Get Boult in the team vs. Australia.


Right




Now.


The only reason I can see them leaving Boult out is if he has slept with the selector's daughter.

Daughter/Son/Mother - wouldn't matter, the kid should be in there.

5 wickets on the first day.

Tidy work.

McIntosh, Cachopa, de Grandhomme, B Martin and Adams isn't exactly the most mind blowing 5 wickets tbh. I'm going to stay reluctant about him, quality start to the season though.
