Can't for the life of me understand why Sodhi isn't playing the ODIs, if not tests as well. He's a class act these days.
In regards to tests, they want an all rounder at 6. Neesham/Anderson haven't come off so Santner bats there. Santner is a better batsman than Sodhi. I think Sodhi will be seen more in the future but didn't do a great job with taking his opportunities at the start of his career.
Amazing that Sodhi hasn't played IPL so far.

@Bones yeah I should have kept my mouth shut too.

Well @mariner4life will be pleased with proceedings anyway and should cop some flak if we lose.
-
@no-quarter You just doubled up his double.

I'd prefer someone who has actually scored at least a 50 in the shorter forms of the game to be referred to as an 'all rounder' but that's just me.

Santner has batted at number 8 for the majority of his ODIs. Hard to score 50's from down there.

Top 4 did the job and we've got a real game on our hands now. Bring it on.

Afridi and Klusener used to score hundreds at 8 for fun

What other reasons would there be out of interest?

No one has ever scored a century from number 8. Klusner's tons mostly came as a pinch hitter I think.
Not that that excuses the fact that Santner has shown bugger all to match the 'all-rounder' hype.

Was January 25th designated a public holiday for NZ international players?
We look like we're in a hurry to be somewhere else
