***Official*** New Zealand in Zimbabwe and South Africa 2015

New Zealand are missing Brendon McCullum, Ross Taylor, Corey Anderson, Mitchell Santner, Trent Boult and Tim Southee. The only picture that will become clear is just how good our depth is at the moment tbh.

Looks like another blackout for New Zealand in regards to this game. Go Sky.... Useless.

Yeah I don't think a NZ side with George Worker or Colin Munro playing in its top 5 will give an indication of where New Zealand are truly at tbh.

Hang on...David White and NZC were going to "have a word". We were going to really lean on CSA, like we leaned on Zimbabwe to not use their new Dukes ball.

I hope Munro goes on a belligerent cross batted reverse hitting rampage from ball one and has CW saying tomorrow that they always believed in him. Not targeting this at you btw you just happened to mention him.

Yes, because one performance would erase years of a pro sportsman being wholly intransigent in his attitude towards progress and development.

Big game today, hopefully we can put on a good all round performance today to level the series

Wishing and hoping will have a lot to do with it, the way you play.

Look I'm not too worried about it. He's playing pajama cricket as a broke man's Big Show. Sure, 4 is probably too high for him but I find it hard to get too worked up about it. We're not playing a world cup. How many other proper batsmen could we actually pick? Maybe Daniel Flynn? He's one of my favourites but I don't think he's banged the door down.

At least we haven't gone back to Andy Ellis.

Agreed. He has a number of things going for him:

1) His name does not begin with Anton
2) He doesn't value his wicket or bat for his average. All he cares about is scoring quickly. He doesn't waste dot balls.

Perhaps pressured by very high Auckland living costs, it was at this point McLeakinruns and Munro decided getting lots of likes and thumbs up was the true hallmark of a successful man in the 21st century. Not whatever it is that gets KW and Watling out of bed in the morning.

^Magnificent video.

Both of them obviously had a labotomy just prior to it.

I have been waiting to publish my Anton fan fiction by the way. Just waiting for him to do something of note first.

Or maybe they're just being silly on the internet.

Wish I was 19 again.

Neesh and Sodhi in (good).

Worker and Bracewell out. Thought Bracewell bowled well yesterday.
