Very interesting technique. Little to no footwork, quick bat speed and makes it look effortless and easy, like he's swatting away a pesky fly.

He's out of the tests yeah?

I'm now pretty confident there is a God and he hates New Zealand Cricket.

NZ should just go home right now. That's like their two best players unavailable.

Mitch to debut. Smith to wimp out and drop down the order upon seeing twin lefties opening.

Pick Wheeler, or is he injured as well?

Fact: Mitch M hasn't been injured since his diet change to food that would make Phlegm commit suicide (no bread?!?!).

All NZ bowlers should exist on broccoli.

edit: you guys need to make sure i haven't missed anyone in the new sig btw.

Oh well, puts to bed the controversy about whether he would be vice captain

Poor Gillespie - he probably would have been back in the test squad. Has Wagner got back to his old pace?

No, the whole drive is to make the team more brazen and alpha, McCullum and Hesson to actually have much less time for a guy who can't bat, field and biked to practice when he was 25 than Taylor.

I think the ever-improving Otago spearhead Neil Wagner is now bound to play. No he is, he's getting that seam a bit closer to some swing, aggression, 144kph and two dents on Cachopa's helmet within the last week, expressing himself with a few 60s with the bat.

What are his instincts and positive intent like? They are important

Not too far removed from psychotic, and he's just bought an Audi convertible, so damn good.
