Where does Ross Taylor rank?

Well they do show English Premiership footy on some networks in India that aren't available (legally barred from being so) over here.

Not saying such a situation is remotely likely with NZ domestic games and Colin, but just that it's not completely impossible.

What everyone is missing is that Taylor is a Polynesian! its almost unheard of to see a Polynesian guy playing cricket instead of league or rugby. He may well lead the way for other young Polynesian players.

Watch out for Dave Houpapa next. A solid left hander who seems to have a very unorthodox approach like Pietersen..but of course, no comparisons can be made as yet.

I find that terribly hard to believe, considering the only domestic cricket they've shown on NZ TV this season is the List-A final and a few Twenty20 matches. And god knows how you would get hold of it.
I'm talking about what i've seen of the players on the international stage, what does the domestic competition have to do with it?

You were asked how much NZ domestic cricket you had seen and you replied saying you'd see a fair bit, IIRC.

o o my bad voltman, somehow i managed to miss the word domestic in your initial post. But anyway regardless of the fact that i don't see much of NZ domestic competiton most of the younger generation of NZ players along with some old heads i.e Oram, Vincent have a lot of convincing to do in order to become quality test players.

As a Richard fan from way back I don't want to harp on this too much, but it's pretty funny that a guy with such an indepth knowledge of things like first chance averages was completely unaware of the existence of an entire ethnic group that more or less monopolises a large part of the Earth's surface.
