Seriously annoyed.
Just wrote a massive amount and then the damn thing froze. The world just does not want to hear me complain [that's mostly what it was. I had a bad day the other day.]
So i'm just gonna skip to the end bit that no-one wants to hear....me and steve were talking about who'd get selected for the first test against england, cos 14 players went and only 11 will play [this is cricket by the way, so feel free to tune out now], and everyone's really good, so it's tough to call.
i think it ended up as:
1. Fleming. As he is the captain.
2. McCullum. As he is the wicketkeeper.
3. Oram. As he is wonderful and can do everything.
4. Cairns. As he is too, and it's his last test series.
5. Styris. As he done good. And he can bat and bowl.
6. Vettori. As they only took one spinner. And it was him.
7. Tuffey. As they're using him in the warm-up games. And he's doing good.
8. Astle. As he is the man.
9. Martin. As he done bloody good.
And then I get stuck. Bond, Mills, Richardson, Papps, McMillan?
I'd say they'd leave Bond out of the first one, and I'd just leave Mills out because I have random rabid dislike for him [ahh, irrational dislike, my favourite thing. he's probably perfectly lovely.], and then I don't know. There's still three of them for two places.
Sucks to be John Bracewell, that's all I can say. Fortunately I am not him.
Well, I'll leave it there, I think. It's the middle of the night [well, it is soon] and I have to get up early tomorrow for my favourite 9am class! [hatehate. it's not even interesting.] so that'll be a fun game. and i have to go, cos i missed it last week.
