Just been looking at the home draw for this summer. Why do Wellington never seem to play the international sides in the warmup fixtures? Usually ND or Otago for some reason. I'm guessing it just has something to do with domestic fixtures already scheduled. This year its Auckland and an NZ XI. I'd either like Wellington to have a game (the more cricket the better) or else NZ U-19 or U-21 to play. It would be good development for the young guns to play against Test players.
 
Black Caps 266/10. How 170. Career best First Class knock for him by 1 run. 13 fours, 6 sixes.
