Are the people who think that Rudan is batting 100% so far not given pause by his not picking up Gulley, whom those in the know here seem to rate? I'm personally worried there's an anti-Kiwi bias being shown (possibly also with the keeper situation).
In his first interview he confirmed he has a Kiwi-first approach. He even went Kiwi first looking for keepers.
They apparently approached Gleeson and Marinovic before they signed the Polish guy. Batting 100% as far as I'm concerned. People looking for conspiracies which aren't there. The fact that there are already young Kiwis in the squad, others who were invited to trial but did not take up that offer for whatever reason and more signings still to come doesn't suggest any anti-Kiwi bias to me.
