New Zealand Cricket - Yardy and Blackwell sign for Stags
Makes sense I suppose, they must be confindent rather confindent in the likes of Bracewell, Milne and Small.

Going off that article, the CD Stags minus Black Caps might be something like:
Peter Ingram
Jamie How (c)
Mathew Sinclair
Tim Weston
Kruger van Wyk (wk)
Kieran Noema-Barnett
Michael Yardy
Ian Blackwell
Brendon Diamanti
Michael Mason
Mitchell McClenaghan
Bits and pieces central with the two new additions. I think we could have done better with our signings, especially looking at ND and Wellington's signings. Sinclair and Weston isn't the strongest 3-4 in 20/20 either. I think that squad balance will bite us in the bum. Last years team was better imo.
The bowling is gun though. McClenaghan or whoever else is in that spot (Mason and Diamanti are safe you would think) having a bad day wouldn't be too much of an issue with the other five bowlers being misers.

Nah it's for the HRV Cup
Blackwell wouldn't be too bad down the order in T20 because he can hit it quite far and hard iirc

20/20, and I was going off averages.
His FC record is gun but I just assumed he wasn't the greatest 20/20 batsman because he averages under 20 in the format.If he bats in the top four for Durham then fair enough, he'll move up to 6. Can't see him displacing the top five bar Weston.

He won't bat ahead of Sinclair or van Wyk. Weston isn't much of a hitter, more of an accumulator, so those two will scrap it out for number five imo (yes I am still revising my batting order
).EDIT: Blackwell actually has better returns than van Wyk, which is surprising. Very useful limited overs batsman in van Wyk.
Yardy can bat four then.

That's looking pretty hard to beat. Discounting How's test record and Ingram mk I, not one batsman averages under 38. Yardy has the lowest average and he's still ****ing good. Only unknown is how the three young bowlers will go, but Milne and Bracewell look real talents and maybe McClenaghan will bring his NZ A form back.
If anyone is a liability we still have a pretty good reserve bench of bowling talent (admittely with very few games between them).

True. Ah well, hopefully Blackwell sticks around for some real cricket.
