Ross Taylor has looked poo poo but that's in comparison to how he's been in the past. Before Williamson emerged Ross by far and away our best and most reliable batsman. He's still good but I don't think he's ever going to be as influential as he once was.

Also as far as rotating I would keep the batting line up as is (Latham has shown me nothing to suggest he's close to pushing for a place) but would give Nathan McCullum a run against the Afghans along with McClenaghan for Dan and Boult respectively. Mills should be given a run for Milne for one of those games too I think.

The only reason they should change their line up is to rest either Southee or Vettori (avoid an injury) in the Afghanistan match. You're not going to get any meaningful information from a good performance against a lower team.

Maybe Australia will bring Brett Lee out of retirement so he can accidentally bowl a beamer and finish off McCullum.

We should have brought Trevor Chappell out of retirement to bowl to Williamson.

Rotation is a terrible idea in cricket. Play your best side unless you're forced to change it through form or injury.

Which international cricketer has the most sex and which one has the least sex in this forum's opinion

I'm gonna say Gayle for the most sex (but only because he publicly talks about his sexhaving) and for least sex I would say that Jesse Ryder probably has whiskey dick all the time

Ryder doesn't count as an international cricketer anymore. If he counts then so does Styris and then the answer becomes Styris.

Poor loving Ross Taylor. There's not much pleasure in knowing you're a better batsman than Stephen Fleming.


But Williamson, holy poo poo. He has transformed into an absolute freak - the only explanation is that two years ago he gave Satan a handjob behind the Vance Stand at the Basin Reserve

At the start of 2013 he had played 34 games and had an average of 31.80

He's now played 69 games and his average is 47.29 - the highest average of any NZ player.

Is Dan likely to break down at the minute? His action seems ok, and he's had about as much surgery as they can give him. Unless he gets stuck in a hard run chase where they're chasing suicide singles and wrecks a hamstring, is he in danger of breaking down from anything other than a freak injury?
