[lord_of_darkness]

Yep got the file thanks Liam..

its great being one of the selectors in the panel and being in my country ! ill be there watching the games while im not playing in the dev a games back in aus.. have to fly back and forth..

There has been a meeting with the Martin Snedden of NZ cricket board and we are arranging the itenary for the tour currently.. and the itenary will be out very shortly..

Congragulations to the people that made the test squad ! Give it all your best and im sure this is going to be a very exciting tour to new zealand.. its a beautiful country and the test matches are going to be very intense and competitive..

As for now please continue training and dont go too far from the hotel or be out too late..just advise the coach on tour ( me ) before you go out so i can come looking if your lost.. and a tour of Auckland is planned for Saturday for the team..

Just a query, Do i have a say in team selections or is it all up to lord???

Team selections are up to the Panel. The Panel has a say and you're part of it.

 

[Blewy]

No worries, just got the impression that Lord was the sole selector for the matches.....

 

[Neil Pickup]

its great being selector

Rephrase that.

Nope.. as neil said the selection panel + cwbcc does the seletion based on match per match..

I just meant it being one of the selectors in that ( co president of cwbcc ) its just easier for me being in my home country watching the games and passing on my suggestions towards the panel when we meet after every match to decide the XI

 

[lord_of_darkness]

Well So far the Pre tour games have been sheduled for..

Wednesday 11th January

Cricketweb XI vs Auckland ( 4 day ) at Eden Park Outer Oval, Auckland


Friday 13th January

Cricketweb XI vs Central Districts ( 4 day ) at Basin Reserve, Wellington


Sunday 15th January

Cricketweb XI vs Canterbury ( 4 day ) at Jade Stadium , Christchurch

No games until the wednesday 11th because the state of origin match ( north island vs south island ) takes place on sunday the 8th and the nz board has said that some players wished to take a short rest..

Why am I always rested for tour games? It's like my best chance to get in some form.

 

[marc71178]

Maybe it's not just the tour games?

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Why am I always rested for tour games? It's like my best chance to get in some form.

You average 54.8 in Tests and 44.47 in ODIs! Chances are you're not out of form.
