    The intelligene of age and experience vs pace and youth. A tough balancing act :) Yeah not sure what his stance is on it either. With a "new" coach comes new ideas so who knows if they'd consider him or not. I think he should just lie about his age and tell them he's 25 :) He's clearly proven...

    Great Idea :) He's proven himself at domestic level and even in the IPL qualifiers. When the Aces played Pakistan as a T20 warm up game he ripped through them. Bates was involved in the training squad before the BLACKCAPS went to Zimbabwe but who knows when he'll get the call up.

    Andre Adams Hard to tell whether he was talking about first class cricket in general or Auckland's season. Clearly with titles in both shorter forms of the game and the complete opposite in our Plunket Shield results, it's an area he saw as being disappointing. This sentiment was felt by the...

    You raise some very good points and we're definitely looking at every aspect of the game for areas of improvement. Although many people see the visible results of our successes on the field in the Auckland Aces, its also important to recognise the work that goes on at the junior and youth...

    Eden Park No2 will only be reinstated in 2 seasons time giving it time to be fully developed for first class cricket. It seems the decision has been all but made not to have test cricket at Eden Park but we're hoping this will change when England next tour NZ. We'd definitely love to be back at...

    Eden Park Had a search for pics of our hospitality setup and came up with this one: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Auckland-Cricket/101855876084?sk=photos#!/photo.php?fbid=10150351767386085&set=o.228527757169005&type=1&theater On the right you can see the new South Stand that actually has...

    Twenty20 cricket is a well established part of both the domestic and international cricketing schedule. It allows players with a different skill set to shine. The difficulty in some cases is transferring form from other versions of the game to Twenty20 and vice versa. From an entertainment...

    A bit of everything really. Mainly running the HRV Cup, player appearances, hospitality, events etc. Everyone wears a million hats in cricket. At the moment I'm looking at a Champions League supporters tour to India, upcoming promotions and chatting to companies wanting to be involved at our...

    CD's Catchment Area Not sure if there's an MA map anywhere but CD covers the following districts: Cricket Whanganui, Hawkes Bay, Horowhenua Kapiti, Manawatu, Marlborough, Nelson, Taranaki and Wairarapa. Not sure about the specifics in each district though.

    Yip I'm with Auckland Cricket. Did a search to see if anyone's chatting about domestic cricket and this forum came up. Great to be able to read what everyone is chatting about.

    Andre Adams?

    Watching Andre for the Auckland Aces in the 2010/11, it seemed his greatest asset was his ability to vary his delivery. At 35, his domestic record in all forms of the game during the season was excellent and he's still knocking them over in England. He does seem to favour the shorter form of the...
