NZ RAIN RADAR . KIPPAX CRICKET . DOOR TO THE VAULT
Pretty good looking squads (especially after the last couple of months).
ODI top order still a bit dicey...
McClenaghan could be very handy in england in may .could pip butler .can guptill really be a contender for the test squad ?
MM won't be fit in time for May. But is in line to be fit for ODIs in June.
Tipping us to take all seven home Tests this summer
RIP Craigos. A true CW legend. You will be missed.
Surely at least one game will be rained out?
Will be awarded to us due to good behaviour
Funnily enough, I thought barring rain Eng would win 3-0 in NZ.
Now, there appears to be hope. That's probably when we fall over.

Yeah, happy with those squads.
Think it's about time Cricinfo updated their profile for Ronchi...
Born in New Zealand, he is a man Australia will be thrilled to call their own over the next few years.
They must be going to open with Ronchi. EDIT - yes they are. The only other option in there is McCullum, and I don't think that's happening. Funny someone like Papps scores a lot of 50 over runs, but they pick someone who had a pretty average Ford Trophy and HRV Cup. Hope they are right (yes, I think Ronchi is a better ODI option than Papps also).
No BJ in the ODI squad? He was doing well down the order a few months ago. Put him up the order, he fails. So they drop him. Stink buzz.

Nuffy Ellis in the squad but no Matt Henry (easily the best limited overs bowler in the country this season), what a crock of ****. Watling missing out is pretty harsh.
Franklin
Elliott
Ellis
God we need some all rounders, these guys are the weakest spot in our team (although Franko there isn't to bad).
Slightly harsh on Butler, given he took tons of wickets for Otago as a first change seamer. Reckon Latham should be in the ODI squad and Ronchi in the test squad. Interesting that they seem to have shelved the Milne experiment for the winter.
Agree that BJ missing out on the ODI squad is an eyebrow raiser. I presume Ronchi is pretty much guaranteed to open the batting then?
