Shocked at a call-up after some pretty averaqge form, but determined to do my best if called upon!

 

[Blewy]

Congrats to all who made the final squad...
To those who missed out, Bad Luck, butkeep going in the Dev's and you will be recognised in good form...

The NZ squad was chosen to suit the NZ conditions and we feel that this is the best possible squad to bring back the trophy

See you all at the oval, be prepared for a big tour...

How the hell do you figure that I'm one of the best...??

My form has been ordinary at best!!

 

[Blewy]

Well we thought that you were the best candidate for the conditions in the shaky isles....

Hmmm....

Since moving to the opening spot before Season 3, your stats have read:

Season 3
4 games : 272 runs @ 45.33, 1x50, 1x100

Season 4
8 games : 543 runs @ 36.20, 3x50

That's pretty good for a WK.

Also, we're not too confident in PY's catching skills yet.

LOL!

That fills me with a great deal of joy!!
Does this mean I'll be first drop keeper with PY as back up??

Thanks Blewy...

You always know how to make me feel better!:P

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

1463 FC runs @ 33.25 to date.
13x50, 0x100

201 ODI runs @ 40.2
1x50

Season 3
4 games: 164 runs @ 27.33, 1x50

Season 4
8 games: 473 runs @ 33.78, 4x50

Still, you've shown enough promise in the ODIs and brilliant form in the Dev League OD games to get a lookin in the longer form.

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

You're the backup 'keeper for the time being as PY has shown to be one of our better batsmen. At the moment he's our Brendon McCullum... we pick him for his batting.

i know this doesnt count but i hit 2 tonnes , a double tonne and 70odd not out in sth africa

but hey i wont let ya guys down..

 

[PY]

I'm rather honoured to be chosen for the series against New Zealand. I hope I can repay the selectors faith in me.

I am not however happy with the slur on my catching ability. :saint:. I make one in ten chances, what's wrong with that? :P.

If the chefs stop serving space cakes, I'm sure I will do better.

 

[Eyes_Only]

Watch your back mate...I'm eyeing your spot

From all reports, I'd say PY is very much first DROP keeper!
