@mariner4life Yeah - it's not so much who gets picked up - it's some of the relative prices. I guess it's the auction process and people who've been carried over (and haven't).
This page shows everyone's price. You don't have to go far to see some big anomalies!

@mokey Yeah - but, apparently he is back bowling fast and got through a BBL season uninjured.
I see he played 12 matches, bowled 44 overs and had a very respectable economy rate (slightly better than multi-million dollar Jhye Richardson). Picked up hardly any wickets though, so had a terrible average.

@chris-b i watched him. He was good. Bowled to plans with consistent accuracy. 140 odd throughout. Got no wickets but bowled really well at the start, you're always going to get smashed 1 game out of 5 at that pace, that's a given but he was very reliable early on. Took some tap at the end a couple of times, but who doesn't. Real dearth of wickets but that seemed a quirk and not a reflection of impotent bowling. A lot of the batsmen were playing him conservatively at the end of the season. Swung the ball for an over and a bit, but all bowlers could only get 1 or two overs to swing this year.
No surprise then that Bondy had the say again but Milne can definitely do a job. I'd have him in the black caps if available

2019 Interview with Jeff Thomson.
Thommo tells a story about 70-year-old Don Bradman batting in a backyard in Adelaide in 1978 that Thommo witnessed.
Go to the 30.00 minute mark.
Thommo is the kind of guy you can listen to for hours. What a legend he is

@siam Anyone here a fan of Neil Wagner?
I suspect anyone on here that isn't would be promptly handed a life ban.
that should be the 'captcha' we do for any sign in.
Are you a massive fan of Neil Wagner?
Yes -> FERN
No -> Doom -

My attempt at outrage click bait 😉
By God weren't the stats enlightening? Really told a unique story and probably cemented Wags as next best outstanding bowler behind Paddles

It would be a dick move of the NZ Government to not allow Conway back into the country if he goes on the England Tour.
