If he wants the 100 he needs to go for it this over, but I think he'll just want the win.

Yeah ODIs are more forgiving of part-time bowlers than T20s. So where there's a case to be made that it's right to go with five bowlers in our T20 side, I think 4 bowlers plus part-timers is clearly the right option in the best ODI XI. (Unless you have a true allrounder, which we don't)
Here's the full list (if I've done it right):
Latham could get 150
Was thinking of the McCullum 131 vs Pakistan at Abu Dhabi, don't think NZ had ever won a game in the UAE till then and was a pretty good attack IIRC (Amir, Gul, Afridi, Ajmal etc).Here's the full list (if I've done it right):

So that's 10 centuries for NZ keepers in ODIs, and Latham has four of them!
Forgot about that one. Good call.
My point is, in an attempt to select the best 4 or 5 bowlers, we are often shooting ourselves in the foot by not giving ourselves enough options and depth with both bat or ball (and putting out poor fielding sides almost always).
