Batted okay. Looked to me as if he'd be more suited to one-dayers than 20:20s. Mind you, making judgements off one innings is a bit harsh.
afaik he has a reputation for ridiculously fast scoring (I know you can't base much on this, but arguably his biggest claim to fame is still that he scored 300 in a single afternoon in under-18s cricket about a decade ago).

Blimey. That's a good effort. First class bowling attacks are a bit different, I guess. Did bloody well for his debut though, so if he improves with the experience, then who knows.

Damien Wright lining up for the Australlington Direbirds.
Don't see the reason for the hate. We've got two imports, which is no more than anyone else. He was a ****ing gun too, 10 for 2 off 4, and 12 vital runs at the end to keep Wagner at bay. WAC (c is for champ).

We have a few players like Rhodes and Merchant who hail from Aussie.

Awesome match though, Wagner WAC.

Few things to note from this match:

Pollard looks awesome
Rhodes looks dire
Wagner's ball to get Woodcock was tremendous
Wagner looks pretty good
D Wright can bowl
L Wright rubbed butter on his fingers pre-match and a pot plant has stronger cricketing mentality

Agreed with all of that except for Rhodes - he was the anchor around which Wellington paced their innings and it worked perfectly with hitters like Pollard and Nevin in the line-up. Had it not been for three wickets falling for no runs, Wellington would've cruised home since Otago finished at least 15-20 runs short of what they should've scored.

The identity of Heef is revealed!http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/cricket/4422613/Dry-puzzled-why-he-can-t-get-a-shot-at-home:ph34r:

Anyone on the Welly club scene (Heef?) got much to say for the dude? Reckon he suffers from being behind Patel, Woodcock, Houghton and Schaw personally.
He's got a point, but the guy is a grade A **** and a hypocrite to boot. He's the captain who got an Aussie to come over for ONE GAME to play the Pearce Cup final. Turned up one Saturday morning, scored 130-odd and then ****ed off on the plane back to Aussie and did the same the following Saturday. **** your own players, Lance, the ones who've played the whole season for ya. If he's willing to do that for Easts, I have less than Zero sympathy for the guy. He's a bloody good player, mind...

How did Hakaraia go? Should've been given a game for Auckland years ago.
I was impressed. He played some really fantastic shots, including one fabulous cover drive. But he struggled a bit against the pace of Milne.

How'd Munro look?

Like he'll get the chop for Jimmeh?

Hopefully.
Wouldn't be surprised. He didn't look like anything special.

Nice, Todd Astle's playing.

Edit: Hmm, Sherlock bowling into the breeze, interesting.
