1) Having 2 captains in different formats is ludicrous when both are playing in both formats.  It can only undermine one, the other, or both (Exception when wanting to groom a younger player for test captaincy and let him develop in less important games like limited overs).

2) If NZC has 'little faith' in the Aussies in the setup, WHY THE HELL DID THEY GET RID OF WRIGHT!?!?!?!?!

3) Would be crazy to drop Franklin for a batsman as we need a 4th seamer (In subcontinent conditions) for the long periods in the middle of an innings to keep the main bowlers fresher for when they are useful.  Until Ryder comes back in and can fill that role Franklin is necessary.
