New Zealand preliminary squad

Andre Adams
Nathan Astle
Shane Bond
Stephen Fleming
James Franklin
Peter Fulton
Mark Gillespie
Chris Harris
Paul Hitchcock
Gareth Hopkins
Jamie How
James Marshall
Hamish Marshall
Chris Martin
Michael Mason
Kyle Mills
Brendon McCullum
Nathan McCullum
Peter McGlashan
Craig McMillan
Iain O’Brien
Jacob Oram
Mark Orchard
Jeetan Patel
Mathew Sinclair
Scott Styris
Ross Taylor
Daryl Tuffey
Daniel Vettori
Lou Vincent.

Strangely they have selected Tuffey in their list who has only just made his comeback in One Day cricket at domestic level and is not in form. Interesting selection of back-up players such as Orchard, N McCullum etc.

My Final 15:

*Stephen Fleming
Nathan Astle
Ross Taylor
Scott Styris
Lou Vincent
Jacob Oram
Brendon McCullum
Daniel Vettori
Mark Gillespie
Kyle Mills
Shane Bond

extras: Jeetan Patel, Craig McMillan, Michael Mason, Peter Fulton

Who'd you have picked ahead of Tuffey?

IMO that says far more about the absurdity of 30-man squads than any selections.

If playing, is Tuffey seriously not one of the best 30 cricketers in New Zealand?

Tuffey is not at the moment. He is no fit enough to play with an average of about 70 in 6 or 7 games he has played this season and expensive. He will be but not in time for the world cup. I would have picked Graeme Aldridge ahead of Tuffey. Anyway Tuffey wont make it near the 15

Michael Papps will have to be wondering what he did to offend the selectors. I'd have certainly had him in there instead of either Hopkins or McGlashan, especially since he can be a backup wicket-keeper himself.
