New Zealand 'A' Tour of U.K., 2014

Surrey's Richard Branson also said CdG looked imperious in his counterattack on day 1, which may've been a match saver in the end.

It's a shame for CdG that cricket's not more like surfing or wingsuit jumping, where the whole idea of the game is to return home at night and put together a short compilation of h4x. He'd be one of our very best.

It does look like Astle is putting more speed on his deliveries. Looks like there is more 'effort' going into his previously very smooth and gentle action.

Could just be the old front on camera trap though .....

His wrist position looks different too - although I didn't see a close up.

Jeremy Snape, latterly a performance director with the South Africans, said not so long ago that "the last 15 years have been about developing the body, the next fifteen years will be about the mind".
Yep, that suggests Auckland and Wellington will be using Luminosity puzzles to put ND back in the shade, sometime in the mid-2020s.
