Back when Lancaster Park would be packed to watch Hartland and Latham get Canterbury off to the flying start. The final that season when Larsen could only bat using one hand and the season before Wellington v CD, were epics.Interesting. Just looking at it, I didn't realise it dated back to the start of the 70s, I thought it would have been early 80s. Thought TVNZ would have had it on throughout the 80s though. But first time I remember seeing it was 91/92 round robin games.
That Shell Cup final is burned into my brain. Epic.Back when Lancaster Park would be packed to watch Hartland and Latham get Canterbury off to the flying start. The final that season when Larsen could only bat using one hand and the season before Wellington v CD, were epics.
Must be exhausting for all involved in KNBs life as he never seems to be Kieren, always Kieren Noema-Barnett. He'd be tired of hearing it and everyone would get tired of saying it.
TBH, That was probably the first time the competition had a final (and semis). It was a round-robin tournament throughout the 80s.Interesting.

153/5 off 50 overs at Pukekura Park, looks like a classic!TBH, That was probably the first time the competition had a final (and semis). It was a round-robin tournament throughout the 80s.
(Although it's origins were a knockout tournament in the 70s, before it became the Shell Cup).
IIRC this was the first ever televised domestic game: https://archive.nzc.nz/Scorecards/52/52539.html
Move to Canterbury or ND, or be related to a NZ player/NZ players from the 80s/90s.What more does Clarkson have to do to get a game for New Zealand ?
Play for Canterbury/Northern Districts/the NZ 2008-2010 U19 side with Da Boiz and/or turn 30.What more does Clarkson have to do to get a game for New Zealand ?
Perhaps they looked at his Ford Trophy batting this season, 82 runs @ 11, SR 78? And yes, I know he was more dominant in Super Smash.Clarkson giving selectors something to think about here for the Pakistan ODIs
Thoughts such as "why the **** haven't we selected this guy"
