Pick your NZ bowlers/all-rounders for SA

[Flem274*]

If Ingram was a joke then what does that make all the other openers?

You're excellent at misery lad, but you're not very good at being constructive. Who would you pick?

Im not going to get into this Pinga debate again with you. Like many people before him, Pinga had obvious difficulties with his technique which were always going to prohibit him from being a success at a higher level.

Misery? I'm sorry kind sir but whatelse have the boobs down at Lincoln served us up of late? Who would I pick? This is a lose/lose situation as you're just going to maul whatever names I throw out there - but I believe Butler & Cachopa should of been in the mix.

 

[ohnoitsyou]

whatever happened to Grandhomme, i haven't watched to much domestic cricket lately, but surely he would be a better option than these other names that are being thrown about.

Blooding this many new players is stupid when the fact is only a couple will get a game, and then those that do will probably play poorly and never be seen again/run into poor form in 6 months and be dropped, except if they are from Otago.

So you're going to rubbish whatever we and the selectors pick but not put your money where your mouth is. Your usual method of posting in other words. Ta.

CdG just didn't look up to it when he was picked. Might come back I guess but he wasn't a goer sadly.

Kim is that you?

And I assume you're just going to bend over, spread your cheeks and take whatever filth NZC wants to give you?

I respect your opinion, especially when it comes to the domestic scene, but you're coming off as a NZC fanboy (as opposed to my grumpy old man routine).

And for the record I havent knocked anyone elses selection in here, just those of the wisemen at lincoln.

Rumours were right

Corey Anderson
Colin Munro
Jimmeh Neesham
Derek de B

All in the t20 squad.

Interestingly, Peter Fulton is back in the test squad and Kruger has been left out. Franklin keeps his place.

 

[Flem274*]

Fulton, really?

I mean, yes he's scoring runs but technically he looks no different to his last outing. I backed him at first but I think that while a complete loss of confidence contributed to his downfall, his technique isn't exactly tip top.

edit: surely Franko is being kept based on Bond's determination to get his bowling back to vicious 135kph swing? Otherwise why?

Eh, can he really do any worse than Guptill has been? I wonder whether McCullum is now thinking of giving up the opening spot and moving down to number 4...

 

[Bahnz]

Oh and Tim Southee will miss the T20's because apparently his first kid is being born.

If Fulton plays ahead of Franklin, is he going to be an opener or in the middle-order?

 

[Flem274*]

Did the radio just say Oram AND Southee are having children?

What the hell have I missed?

 

[Flem274*]

Where's the squadz ladz?

 

[BackFootPunch]

Da fuq is going on with those squads? Holy **** man.

[Blain]

Fulton in the 20/20 also? I guess there is enough in experience there already, and that would have counted towards him.
