This is gun, getting the **** **** performance out of the way in a dead rubber 20/20. Honest guys, it's for the best.

I'm not sure how many List A games he's spent opening, but I would like to give him a crack at three and revoke his lisence to go for it. He ticks along at a very good strike rate in tests so he *should* be able to bat 'properly' in ODIs and still be all right.
Well I'd like to see him bat four or five in ODIs, really, but it's obviously not practical as Taylor has a lock on #4 and New Zealand have Styris, Elliott and Williamson who are all most suited to five themselves. I'd bat him at three too. Seeing him open with Guptill bat three really annoys me TBH.

Glad that Brownlie hasn't started well, don't want to end up like England with a whole lot of imports, looks dire too imo
I'm trying to see what he has that made the selectors elevate him so quickly above the other FC five/sixes, especially considering we have about a million decent ones.

Looks all right, but nothing that screams pick him after a handful of games.

Franklin > Then the rest of New Zealand's top four put together. Both figuratively and literally.

We can't really afford to defend and consolidate here - just need to go for the win. Don't really care if we are all out for 45.
