*Official* New Zealand Domestic Cricket Season 2012/2013

[Mike5181]

Quite a few of the players we want to perform are doing just that this round. Flynn, Broom, Anderson, and Neesham are playing well so far. I'd like to see Young make something of this start as well.

 

[Kippax]

Anderson actually went right down in my estimations as strange as it sounds. A bit like a prize carrot at a small farming town's school fete, once you put the impressive monsterism and early maturation factor aside, it's actually worse than a regular one for taste. Plays about 50 false and provincial shots, dropped chances, Butler beats him numerous times, dicey against spin as usual and yet Corey's still a brilliant prodigy rather than a handy Plunket player in a Munro or CdG way, I don't really buy it.

 

[Athlai]

CDG is a handy Plunket player? ITSTL

 

[Kippax]

Heh, averaged 70 last season with three tons, how can we say he's not.

 

[Mike5181]

CDG was more than handy at Plunket Shield level last season. Hasn't had the greatest start this season though.

Nothing like a good play-and-miss merchant

Put him down for that number 6 spot... along with Flynn, Franklin, Vettori, Brownlie, Broom, Watling, Neesham and Munro

One I wanted to see perform but hasn't is Bracewell (with the ball). Am getting a feeling that after his great start for NZ he's going to struggle to back up this season, with a risk he could revert to an average third seamer who takes wickets at 40ish. Predicting he will score some useful runs for NZ this summer but his first job is bowling.

I'm seeing some tenuous lobbying for Nethula and ****kins recalls here. Manu ain't get no respect!

Gillette Cup is early December at Lincoln, probably won't be a release though until all finalists have been found. Hutt Valley High for Wgtn, King's for Auckland, Chch Boys High are in. Official site was actually quite good to it last year after they brought the tournament to Lincoln

Henry Nicholls was the most recent young cricketer to Lord's, Tim Johnston before that in 2010.

Thanks. Thats helpful.

Have now heard that it is the usual suspects in the Gillette - CBHS, PNBHS, OBHS with St. Peters of Cambridge , Kings College and HVHS . OBHS are rated this year.

Any Hamiltonians online. My memory that I want someone to verify for me - is that they play out of the village square in the centre of downtown cambridge.

Not sure whether to root for them or the locals HVHS

Love the gillette cup. Some memorable games against Hamilton boys high school when I was growing up.

Wellington vs Canterbury in 20/20 on tv tonight, any point watching this game from a NZ point of view?

Both team are pretty horrible.

Useless pricks.

 

[SteveNZ]

Really fancied watching Mitch's 2nd innings effort..apparently a fair bit of heat behind it - 150 or close by those in the cordon. But NZC has let me down

Well, not over the Gabba test. But you know Ryder will be worth watching against that attack, even if you're hoping for a flop.

Might record it just in case Ryder goes crazy.

Mitch who?

 

[SteveNZ]

I'm really not sure if that's serious or not..I may have missed that the highlights were already up though.

Kruger completely done for pace in 2nd dig, pretty awful dismissal for a Test player

 

[Kippax]

Haha neither, any CW member with a joining date of 2004 should really be familiar.
