Forgot three of the four.

Left out Bell. Only incuded Brodie because 37.90 is practically 38.

As I said, I went through and found the stats, nothing more. Its ironic you're jumping down my throat for apparently implying we should pick very inexperienced players. :p

It's just how you said "I wouldn't pick him" about Brodie, but had guys like Raval and Williamson in your list.

I know what you meant now however.

Edit: Chucked in Bell because his test average would have pushed down the FC average by a long way.

Maybe I shouldn't say 'heaps' but they do offer a fair bit and everyone says that they offer more for the bowlers in domestic cricket.

Really looking forward to seeing who NZ end up picking for the decider. :)

Yeah for some reason this has really caught my imagination as well. Vettori says he will be announcing the team (with the other selectors) by tomorrow. I will check cricinfo from time to time from work.

Oh well, so much for taking tomorrow off work to go see an enthralling last day of a test......


Another 90 for Rosco. Doh.
Just looking at what he has done with the bat recently, he has put a nice little streak together.

151 (262)
42 (139)
107 (261)
35 (90)
16 (88)
81 (182)
27 (49)
94 (237)
59 (122)
30 (54)
97 (204)

Good to see the amount of balls he's facing too.

Would clearly have 40 centuries if his partners hadn't failed him.

40 centuries in 76 knocks is a better rate than Bradman, thus we can confirm that Chris Martin is the best batsman ever.

It's questionable whether Cumming is good enough, if you look at the games he's played recently against 2nd string international attacks, he has scored jack all runs.

Tour Match: New Zealand Invitation XI v Pakistanis at Queenstown, Nov 18-20, 2009 | Cricket Scorecard | Cricinfo.com
Tour Match: Sri Lanka Cricket Development XI v New Zealanders at Colombo (NCC), Aug 12-14, 2009 | Cricket Scorecard | Cricinfo.com
1st unofficial ODI: New Zealand A v England Lions at Palmerston North, Mar 14, 2009 | Cricket Scorecard | Cricinfo.com

Not to mention his random CH series appearance :laugh:

Haha yes, and what did that trial match before this series prove?... That anyone who scores runs in the invitational match should not be allowed near the test team :dry:

this series is nicely set up now. i can see o'brien picking up at least 10 wickets to sign off in style in the next game

Not Terrible
Anyone else think that this is the best commentary team we've had in a long long time? McMillan and Waqar are two of my favourites. Quite enjoy Crowe too.

Flynn and Fulton need to go, sadly for Fulton this will mark the end of his international career. Flynn just needs prove he can pile on runs for ND and shouldn't be sighted at international again level until he does. McIntosh is a tricky one for me as he can build big innings and has alot of experience but I guess on that same basis then he has to go too. These players do not have what it takes to score consistently against top class attacks imo(though Flynn may in time), the question is do they think Watling is ready for a Test debut? I think they have no choice. I don't know if How is quite ready for a recall(though coming fresh off a 90 in front of Glen Turner) but I wouldn't consider any other openers for the final Test of a series personally other than Brodie who may be a bit green to face an attack of this quality - added that Watling should still sit above him in the pecking order. Guptill needs to bat in Flynn's number three spot where he will hopefully feel a bit more at ease. Although i'm still uncertain about whether Elliott is a Test match prospect he has shown enough to play in this last Test imo. Broom has to be a certainty for his test debut.

1.Watling
2.McIntosh/How/Brodie
3.Guptill
4.Taylor
5.Broom
6.Elliott
7.McCullum+
8.Vettori
9.Tuffey/Patel
10.O'Brien
11.Martin
