Marshall's days at 3 are probably over for the minute...he looks pretty good at #5 right now.
I believe he's better off at #5 where it breaks up the hitters a bit. If Marshall was #3 we'd have Styris at #4, Cairns presumably at #5, Oram at #6 & so on.
Sinclair looks alot better to be honest...he's not knicking everything behind the wicket when he first comes out to bat which is a good sign. He could easily be NZ's #3 for the next 4 or 5 years if he works hard.

Wilson IMO is a big-match player. The tougher it gets, the easier it will be for him. As far as pressure is concerned..he's done it all before with the All Blacks & to some extent cricket so he'll be used to it.
Basically, if we ever wanted to see what Wilson was going to be like again..this is the best time to do it when stats, rankings and whatever don't count.

with the nz pitches the games might not be that high scoring

Sounds good.
Maybe it's not as good as the 3 Mobile (or mobile 3, whatever) 1000$ per run, or Toyota's $50,000 per six, but it's pretty damn good!
That's 3 matches = 1200 runs if the pitches are reasonable, that's 24000$, plus boundaries, let's say 75, which is rather small, that's another 75K, and, assuming the likes of Astle and Cairns fire, 20 sixes - there's another 100K, so that adds up to nearly 200,000$ on runs & etc alone. Sounds good, and there could be alot more.
So let's hope we don't have the same kind of matches that we had when India toured us in 2002 - 2003.
Any word on incentives for the bowler?
