    <p>I was impressed with Anderson towards the end of yesterday - did what he had to do to survive. He needs to show that he is more than just a clunker of the ball.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>The ball that got Guptill wasn't even a challenging delivery, outside off coming in on the angle - Guppy just seemed to be late getting there, it was almost catching practice.</p>

    <p>Hard to see NZ getting a lead of over 100 unfortunately but we can dream ....</p>

    <p>So what are peoples opinions on Henry Nicholls? One 50 which was a bit streaky and 3 failures. Does he get another shot in the next test series behind Williamson and Taylor at 5 or do we try someone else?</p>

    <p>I'd give him at least another series. Probably two or three series</p>

    Nicholls could be your longer term 4 with Ross Taylor at 5. I'd keep him - needs more Test time.

    <p>wouldn't we be more like Aus. given neither Ireland or Scotland have beaten the ABs' and Wallabies do so from time to time also, as have the Black Caps, we look shit hot against most other teams but when the heat comes on and it matters, neither the Wallabies or BCs can make that next step.</p>

    <p>No that's a really dumb analogy, the Wallabies have won the WC twice. Black Caps never have.</p>

    <p>I've always thought Pakistan and France were the most comparable.....volatile brilliant players who can smash the best but also get a hiding from the worst.</p>

    <p>They haven't won it twice so that makes my argument basically foolproof.</p>
