    True, although stability at 3, 4 & 5 would probably have given Guptill more lives either as an opener or at 6.

    BTW, where's the latest Chris Gayle scandal story? He's been in the country for days already.

    Slim pickings in Whangarei?

    @taniwharugby might have been up for a night our.

    So Dougie will start tomorrow. He'll probably have to bowl his full 10 overs unless they use Munro or Worker for a few overs.

    So - if you assume they're going with our strongest team - aside from the obvious clues....

    Worker
    Munro
    Williamson
    Taylor
    Latham
    Nicholls
    Bracewell
    Astle
    Milne
    Southee
    Boult

    Not playing:
    Henry
    Ferguson
    de Grandhomme

    Possible that one of Ferguson or Henry could play instead of Milne (or Astle) in a "strongest" team, but I doubt it.

    So the tail starts at 7?

    @mn5 I don't think there's any way to fix that in the squad named.

    They're backing Dougie as a batsman.

    @dogmeat a few showers around this morning, hoping they’ll burn off by mid morning.
    We’ve had a few overnight/morning showers lately then it turns into a stunner of a day...

    Touch wood.

    @dogmeat I think it should be ok, won't be as hot as it has been for the past month, but should get the 50 overs in maybe with a couple of stoppages

    Hesson said Bracewell will bat somewhere between 6 and 8. You would hope it's more likely 7 or 8, and interchangeable with Astle depending on the situation.

    If Nicholls doesn't bat in the top 6 why select him?

    We've been hearing about His batting potential for years now and he hasn't even scored as much as a 50 in any forms of the game.

    Sun is shining 👍🏼
    Still a few clouds around though so wouldn’t be surprised if we get the odd shower come across at some stage.

    True. I'll leave Stokes alone.
