    ***Official*** Australia in New Zealand 2016

    Mark Craig replaces injured Mitchell Santner in Black Caps test squad | Stuff.co.nz Craig replacing Santner for the first test. He bowled well for Otago so hoping he can actually bowl OK this game..

    Which statistics did you value most in cricket as a kid? And which ones now?

    Always been averages for me. It annoys me now on Cricinfo live scoring they only have strike rate and career runs? Seriously.. Stupid. The Big Bash does the same, must be to hide all the **** averages.

    It's T20, not test matches we're talking about here. I think he would offer more in the T20 squad than Nicholls.

    Can't believe he wasn't given a chance in the T20's. Would of been a very handy addition to the World Cup squad, especially with his spin.

    ***Official*** Pakistan in New Zealand - T20/ODI series - Jan 2016

    Waddles on radiosport just now saying it has been raining since 9am, after looking promising (picture above). Forecast is for afternoon rain, clearing evening. So might get a 20/20 match if we're lucky..

    Who's coming in for Mitch? Would love to see Nuttell get a call up, even if he doesn't play.

    What's the qualification for Chapman? Just in case.. :P Adding him along with Phillips and O'donnell gives the Aces an exciting look. Couple fast bowlers would be nice though! Lockie has promise.

    Ah well only warm up. Leopard is 100% gun, as we already knew. Finnie hasn't had many runs of late, for Otago also. Bit concerning from the Capt.

    Canterbury contract a confidence booster | Stuff.co.nz 203cm, Peter Fulton is 2m tall btw, 198cm. So maybe he's grown 3cm since the above article was written, but I highly doubt that.

    2016 Under 19 Cricket World Cup

    Wouldn't be surprised if that is only the tip of the iceburg.. Can only dream what goes down behind the scenes in the IPL.

    Maybe this is why Australia don't want to take the team to Bangladesh ;) Leopard at 8 seems low.

    ***Official*** Sri Lanka in New Zealand 2015

    Elliott the T20 player doesn't fill me with much confidence, I remember a few years ago against Aus he scored a less than run a ball 30 from memory which pretty much lost us the game.. Good in pressure situations or rebuilding an innings if required. EDIT; Was his first T20I...

    Canterbury fast bowler Ed Nuttall a big improver | Stuff.co.nz Good article here, the magic man Bond doing the business. Looking at his wickets he has so much energy at the crease.. Would love to know what he's bowling at, looks nippy. He coud over take Wheeler by the end of the summer if he...

    It annoys me everytime I see the Firebirds bowling line up... Arnel, Verma, Woodcock, Patel... None of these guys will be Black Caps or bowl with anything that's entertaining.. They Desperately need a couple young gun quicks who bowl over 135Kms. I thought Arnels bowling coaching is good...

    Brendon McCullum to retire after upcoming Australia series

    Classic Aussie media making up their own opinions and telling all as fact without actually doing some research.. As an NRL/Warriors supporter it drives me insane! Real shame he's not going to the T20 World Cup, seemed like the ideal swansong? I'm interested to know why not. No.5 is going to...
