Modern New Zealand XI (dayboo post 1980) first poll: The Two Positions from Hell

[Bahnz]

The young Martin Crowe was an okay seamer too. Pretty decent 1st class stats.

Not that I think 6 batsman including BMac will eventuate, but if it does - Cairns for 3rd seamer and Smithy with the gloves at 9.

We don't want baby Crowe though. He was a poor batsmen in his first few years (at least by his subsequent standards). We want the Martin Crowe of the late 80's early 90's. From 85 - 94, Crowe bowled only 2 overs per match on average, taking just 5 wickets. He wouldn't rank far above Martin Guptill during his batting prime.
