What is all the hype about Ryder?

a massive zebra

he had a good debut season as an opening batsman but now he is been ****ed around with in the middle order, expect him to be amongst the runs in the near future, oh and just because he has the same body shape as inzy it doesn't stop him from being a spectacular fielder at point

He is nowhere near the size of Inzi.
I firmly believe he is an opener in both forms of the game & that he should be allowed to play his natural game which is to go after everything.
I've been disappointed this season that Wellington have played him in their middle order, but I guess they have their reasons.
He's basically had to start again after falling off track last year & im pretty sure the fact that he blew a chance to go to Pakistan with NZ last year hit him hard.

Never heard of him, but an average of 38 in NZ FC cricket is not too bad at all, especially when you consider he is only 20.

Well he was described as a 'prodigy' a few years ago...Particularly when he scored a quick-fire 200 against an Australian Commenwealth Bank side & also smashed a couple of unbelievable hundreds in the inter-club finals.
He then went and played a good innings for the Nth Island team a few years back in the 1st State of Origin match & also averaged 40 for C.D in FC cricket that year aswell.
But his attitude & drinking problems took over and you could say he's struggled a bit this season for his new team Wellington.

Hehehe. Interesting thread really, and recent events have brought the same question(s) back.

Ryder ponders giving-up alcohol.
That article paints a somewhat worrying picture TBH, if things are as bad as it suggests they're a little worse than I'd imagined. I'd always thought he was a bit of a silly lad who enjoyed a good night out rather too much, but by the looks of things his problems are rather worse than that.
Something of a sorry picture:
Let's hope that maybe this might be the sort of short sharp shock that sometimes jolts people like Ryder to their senses.
