Neil Wagner isn't eligible till April which sucks, really could do with him against Aus. Picked up another 5for today.
Tests against Aus will be
Guptil
McCullum
Williamson
Taylor
Ryder
Brownlie
Vettori
Young
Mills
Southee
Martin
Should be Martins last test series as well. Leaves us short with only 4 frontline bowlers though so maybe Vettori or Young might have to bat 6 and that allows Bracewell to come into the side? I'd rather have him over Mills or Martin anyway but don't think thats the way they will go.

Some really fast guy played some cricket last year (cant remember his name) maybe some potential there.
Also, wonder if anyone has ever gotten 76 in both innings of a test match before. Odd score to have in both knocks
Isn't it a tragedy that Shane Bond didn't have a long and injury-free career? He could have been anything.
:lol: Windies made about 600 at the Basin during that tour didn't they? Easy to see why.
Maybe we'll see Nathan McCullum make the test team as a 'spinner' this year :lol:
I remember a team we put out against South Africa in South Africa in 2000 being terrible due to injuries. And like you have mentioned that side in the mid 90's. I dunno about you but I think Mills, Southee, Bracewell, Wagner, Vettori can top Morrison, Larsen, Vaughn, Kennedy and Patel.
I just can't believe looking at the old scorecards that we opened the bowling against the Windies in a test with Gavin Larsen! And if the opening batsmen could get through that then they had to deal with Justin Vaughn at first change and Harry coming on later!
Shows that Cricket must be dying in the arse if they're starting to rely on expats

In Tests, most of the top order has been settled IMO:
McCullum
Guptill
Taylor
Ryder
Williamson
