Black Caps v India
-
@Chris-B I reckon he's worth a go somewhere in the lineup. Even if you wanted to open with Latham and have this fella further down the order. Black Caps ODI team badly need batting help. I see he has a first class average of 37 with 4 centuries.
-
@KiwiMurph He can certainly bat and I'd say he's well in the mix for the reserves for the CWC.
You can basically pick your first choice XI - and then balance suggests you pick one reserve seamer, spinner, keeper and batsman.
But, they could try to open more options by making Nicholls their reserve keeper - especially, because Seifert is also definitely not great with the gloves.
-
An hour ago this fella Seifert was being overlooked for the odi squad by nearly all of us here, and justifiably so.
He's still not good enough for the one day team, but that was a nice wee chapter in his development. He's got the game so we know to keep giving him resources, but no need to rush him in as a cure all for our recent weak batting performances.
Needs lots of work on his keeping too as I recall
-
Watched a lot of Seifert for ND, he is a very good keeper.
I rate Watling and Blundell higher but nobody else. -
-
Need CDG and Rosco to finish strong here.

@Mokey said in Black Caps v India:
This is such a shit collapse after a really good start.
Kuggeleijn is finishing strong. Going to be one hell of a run chase if India get close.
-
@No-Quarter Yeah, kinda wish he'd come in earlier. It seems a bit fucking crazy that Santner is ahead of him in the batting lineup.
India chasing 220.
-
@Baron-Silas-Greenback Yeah my sample size is too small.
Still not international standard yet, but we'll worth an investment
-
That's a Bond-esque ripper of a delivery from Ferg.
-
@No-Quarter Yeah - there's a lot of merit to bowling a yorker.
-
Now Santner Claus delivers another wicket. Dhoni is going to have to dial the clock back 10 years to pull this one out of the fire.
-
Great catch, he made that look easy.
-
Who cares about shits and giggles ODIs anyway? T20s is where it's at.

Wellington on a good day looks bloody cold....
