Matt Henry might already be better than Southee. If I was Tim Southee I'd be getting ready for the likelihood of becoming the third seamer.

Slowly fella. International cricket is a grind. Henry has hit the ground running, just as Tim did. I know their ages were different but it's about sustaining it when you've had enough of being on the road, teams have worked you out, playing in different conditions on different pitches etc. If you're talking ODIs, then sure Henry has the right stuff to be as good as Tim with the new ball, but he's not a jot on him as the game progresses and especially at the death. Tests, well it's not even a conversation.

Bowes and Davidson in Canterbury team to play CD | Stuff.co.nz

Bowes, eager to advance his cricket career, decided to move to Christchurch late last year. Having spoken to former Black Caps skipper Stephen Fleming, who offered some encouraging words about the opportunities of playing in New Zealand, he joined his Sydenham club.

Stead has liked Bowes' attitude and the fact he recently scored 120 runs against Auckland A didn't hurt, either. "He's in good form. He brings to us the batting all-rounder who can bat in the top four for us."

Leo Carter and Davidson will open the batting.

Left-hander Davidson also impressed by getting "60-odd" runs against Auckland A and Stead has already had some dealings with him during the one-day format.

No wonder Ronnie was sent home! Don't bowl on his pads but do test him with short stuff, domestix.

Michael Davidson, the same left hander who bowled a spell of something like 4 wickets for 1 run in a Shield final before disappearing for years, is now a batsman?

ok.

This is the Michael Davidson who once hit Pat Cummins for six (that was his NZ U19 memorable moment). Looked pretty dodgy in his Ford Trophy games.

I'm not even sure what this is. Otago's attack watchman attempting to ramp his fourth delivery, it seems.

Ben Smith's first bowl for CD (after 78 FC + LO games) and gets a wicket. Seems that "ball-of-the-day" today is a gentle paced long half volley with a little bit of swing from the arm. Also see Colin de Grandhomme's 1st wicket.

Why does Nathan McAndrew have do to well enough to keep his spot in the side. Would rather see a young fella cop a bit of tap instead of McAndrew bowling well.

Couple of lovely new ball dismissals from Jamieson last night. From his height those outswingers must be a nightmare to get in top of.
