Ugh, CD's supposed to have the best fast bowling attack in the country and today they have:

Milne
Badenhorst
Nethula
Patel
(Trego)

at University Oval

Bracewell, Wheeler, Small all injured?

Good chance for Milne I guess.

A long time between wickets for Duffy, so that will be a bit of relief.

I watched a bit of him on the vault from the last game, he still can get lovely late (but slight) out swing when he pitches up, however drifted down leg far too often, and also got monstered whenever he dropped short by Papps/Pollard etc.

kippax, did you hint VJ was doing some work on his action? From what I saw he has a noticeably longer follow through, is now normal where as he used to stop with about 2 steps after release.

Central has made one change from the side which drew with Auckland in Napier last week. Legspinner Tarun Nethula comes in for injured seamer Doug Bracewell (adductor strain)
No mention of why Wheeler is absent. He's listed as 12th man but surely surely they didn't prefer the second spinner and Badenhorst over him :wacko:.

Henry missing the Canterbury game due to hamstring issues.

Yes that was mentioned after the HRV Cup, he didn't really have a good spell after that.

CD are a lot like the current West Indies. Curious selections, an all-rounder captain who doesn't really deserve to be in the side, an old school "man up, princess! everything can be solved with a bit more heart and grit!" vibe, a macho bull pen of young bowlers who bowl too short and with dodgy seam presentation.

Good to see Jesse contributing with the ball. Would love to get some overs out of him in the ODI's.

Well if he wants to commit to being an opener, despite my scepticism, there's likely an NZ spot up for grabs in the near future.

Flem will rightfully point out that Raval should be given first dibs unless he has a shocking season. Possibly even Papps too.

Latham for me is like Milne. I want him in the team but he's got to properly prove himself first.
