4th ODI. NZ v West Indies. Nelson. Jan 4th 2013

Right you are. My memory had him opening with Watling that series but I think it was mostly Watling and Rutherford. So I take it back about Guptill but not the team, since we seemed to be employing this tactic quite a lot over the last year or so.

West Indian fielding is abysmal

It's actually quite sad... Because the bowlers have done pretty well IMO...

Have been let down badly the the fielders...

Now with Williamson out I'll be interested to see how Roscoe goes...

He's been very loose in the ODIs so far... Maybe blowing out the cobwebs after a very defensive test series.

He could do with a good score...

How unlucky is Holder today, geez

 

[Meth]

Anderson in. Hopefully, if we lose another wicket, McCullum is promoted ahead of Ronchi

 

[Meth]

Ronchi is such a disappointment

West Indies 2/2

Match called due to rain and awarded to New Zealand.
They were going to win anyway, it was a pretty sorry batting display from the Windies.

They would be much better with Gayle, DM Bravo, Samuels, Pollard, Sammy....

Was disappointed to see Milne chopped again after only getting that Queenstown 'match'.
When is he going to get a decent extended run?

Who would you have him there ahead of? Mills?

As decent as Mills is, probably yeah.

At least for a string of 3-4 ODIs in a row so he can settle in properly and show what he can do. So far Milne has come in for one maybe two matches, got the bash and disappeared again. When is the last time since Bond we had a bowler who could work up that much pace?
