No he may not be a masterclass batmsen but he would provide better bowling alternatives to Elliot, and on thier raw stats a better batting option as well, but he is injure so there is no point talking about it really. Its a worry at the moment that NZ do not have a true allrounder in the side, when cairns retires oram easily filled that gap but with oram gone we are found lacking, in vettori we have a bowler who bats very well and in ryder a batsmen who can bowl but niether are yet a tru allrounder, i think maybe ryder can be that in 2-3 years. Gone are those beatiful days where it seemed our entire side could bowl a little, astle, macca, styris, cairns, vettori.

We NEED a coach, i think that is clear, vettori for all his brilliance is not one, but in truth neither was bracewell or that last bloke(name escapes me). I think its good that they are not rushing into appointin a guy but they best come up with something good for the time they want to take.
