Propose we let him play but if we lose his records are scrubbed from history.

That would be nice. It's super annoying but that problem pre-dates White's tenure. Just looking at Sri Lanka's schedule they seem to be locked into 2 test series as part of the FTP also.

Next season we will play 7 T10s against both Oz and SA and drop the tests.

We need a rugged traditional old boomer who is all about test cricket and sees all other formats as an insult to the integrity of the planet, rather than a property developer old boomer who sees T20 dollar signs and maximum return to investors.

Yeah I've wondered for a while if we'll just get a new wolf in town. Imagine if Barclay got the role? Test and womens cricket would genuinely be murdered in this country.

That moment when you realise that all these years “Kippax” was actually an experimental LLM attempting to imitate the way a normal person communicates.

Seems to be more based on the Tay chatbot.

Couldn’t Boult On just take a contract for a year? Say to NZC that he’s keen to represent NZ from July to July, and work in leagues around that? Obviously guys have played IPL and BBL around NZ commitments before. By then he’ll be the best part of 34, and then retire from there?

The whole idea of being contracted by NZC is that you're available to them first and foremost. Obviously there's a bit of flexibility built in there if a player - for example - wants to skip a tour to spend more time with his family. But it does not extend to just skipping series in order to go play in the UAE or Australia. And because these leagues now massively overlap with NZ's home summer it really is impossible to work in leagues around your NZ commitments. You're either in in which case you get the IPL and maybe a bit of the CPL, or you're out.
I do think this is an example of where having a split contracting system - with separate contracts for test, odi and t20 players might be helpful. Boult could've stayed contracted as a test player and been available for last summer as an example.

We were pretty flexible with Boult, he seemed to be missing every other test and tour even when he was a contracted player, for the last few years. So I’m not too sure NZC wouldn’t have been open to all these things … but at the end of the day he can’t just swan in and play whatever test series he feels like.
Personally I don’t want to see him in the World Cup squad.
