    IPL hurting the international game

    You made it sound like NZ cricketers were paid penuts. Compared to other sports it's well ahead. And what kind of person would not want to play cricket for a living, I know there would be a few but if a person was really that good I'm sure they would rather stick with that then go and get a...

    IPL hurting the international game

    **** wages? How many other sports in New Zealand pay more then cricket, I can only think of rugby. Plus how many cricketers decide to play rugby over cricket these days, half the NZ team were excellent rugby players and they chose cricket. Get you're facts right buddy :laugh:

    Tim Southee

    - Rated as the best 18 year old fast bowler since Glen McGrath by Dennis Lellie - Named as the best Under 19 player in the 2008 WC - Top Wicket taker in his first FC season - Five wicket haul in his first test innings Most of you would of seen quite a bit of him I guess. The question is does he...

    Emerging Players Tournament 2009

    He's made a couple of 40's but it's pretty hard to make runs batting at 5-6.

    Emerging Players Tournament 2009

    Well Nethula was getting some cricket over in England in May/June this year, he was bowling quite well over there too, I think he was playing in the Surrey league. He picked up 2-3 five wicket hauls iirc. I was reading up on the net around that time and a few people were impressed with him over...

    Cumming? Or is he now seen as a middle order batsmen. I'd say it's still a year to early for Watling, he did miss a lot of cricket last season.

    Emerging Players Tournament 2009

    It would be great if Nethula could up his game to the next level, it's probably going to take a couple more seasons though. He turns the ball quite a lot doesn't he, I remember seeing him on Cricket Company. The thing with Davis is that he relies on pace to take wickets, and tbh he doesn't...

    ***Official New Zealand Domestic Season Thread 2009/10

    If McIntosh fails in Sri Lanka I would be very interested to see where NZC go next. But to be perfectly honest Guptill and Ingram together wouldn't be to good on the old heart rate.

    Emerging Players Tournament 2009

    I rate Beard very highly tbh, I've seen quite a lot of him and have been very impressed by his bowling development over the last two years. I'd say as soon as Vettori retires we will see Beard take his place. Te Ahu Davis, ewwwwwww. I don't think to much of him though.

    ***Official New Zealand Domestic Season Thread 2009/10

    Okay how about pushing Jamie How down to three. I just don't want Worker to go backwards this season, he just looks like such a promising batsmen. Ingram will never amount to much in my opinion, from what I've seen his footwork is pretty poor. Although he did rake up 100's against the Lions this...

    Emerging Players Tournament 2009

    Don't know why DeGrandhomme has been opening, he usually bats at 6-7 for Auckland in one day cricket doesn't he. I'd go 1.Worker 2.Raval/Watling 3.Fulton 4.Williamson 5.Kitchen 6.DeGrandhomme 7.Young 8.Beard 9.Southee 10.Wagner 11.Davis Beard's a very decent bat though, he made a crap load of...

    ***Official New Zealand Domestic Season Thread 2009/10

    Decent team Flem but I've just got a couple of questions. 1.Ingram, and I know he has been very good over the last 1-2 years will most likey never play for New Zealand. Why not drop him down to three, I don't like the idea of Worker not opening. 2.What happened to Richard Sherlock, is he...
