I felt obliged make a thread about this because this is getting beyond a joke. Why won't John Bracewell select him. He's been in awesome form over the summer, yet Bracewell won't pick him. He's way better than Hamish Marshall who has forgotten how to play good. So dear I ask, why isn't Lou being selected? I sure hope it isn't his larger than life jaw bone.

Have you been following the WI in NZ/NZ in SA thread? I fairly sure it's a combination of two reasons...

1) Vincent said he'd prefer to bat in the middle order (he didn't say he didn't want to open though) so Bracewell effectively said "you're not commited to the team so I'll find someone else to open" hence Marshall and Fulton opening.

2) He wanted to be with his wife for the birth of their child so he missed out on the first part of the SA tour...


Given the recent form of the team he should come in for Styris at four (believe me, Vincent bats best at 4) or if worse comes to worse, to open.

Hi, my name is Ethan and I support the BlackCaps.

It's choice to be Lou's Fan of the Month.

I'm 7 years old and I love cricket. I got a cricket set for christmas from Santa, unfortunately it says on the bat it is from a guy called Stephen Fleming, when I said I wanted to bat like Lou Vincent. It still works though.



My question for Lou:

How do I stop the bat missing the ball?

I actually have a Lou Vincent wallpaper on my pc. I'm quite proud of it, as you can probably imagine.

Shameless bump just for this...

Have you seen a ***y woman cricketer?


Lou: (Long pause)…I'm sure deep down they are all beautiful people. I must say I don't watch too much of it but there are some lovely girls around I'm sure.
:laugh:
