    Devon Conway: Why He Wasn't a Star from 2010-2017

    Here's a 2010 article (now behind a paywall) from a cricket writer who was hugely partial to Conway from early on. I'm looking for someone with a Cricket Archive subscription who'd like to do me a huge favour and post some of those old Lions and Dolphins four-day scorecards from 2010-2017...

    ***Official*** New Zealand Domestic Season 2019/20

    Looks like Adithya Ashok will understandably be a bit of a spare part vs. Bangladesh U19 on very early season New Zealand pitches, but it's not because of the erratic pitch maps you'd associate with a 16-year-old wrist spinner. I think Wiseman was probably right about him growing up to be pretty...

    2019/20 New Zealand First-Class Season Draft (Division 2)

    Okay to give this division a slight point of difference and maybe attract some double-dippers from Division 1, points hauls in Tests will be given a 1.3x prestige bonus. Probably quite rightly too, given the difficulty of the 2019/20 Test assignments. Six spots open to prompt entries, Vandem...

    2019/20 New Zealand First-Class Season Draft (Division 1)

    Exempt via their placing last season, if they elect to play again: Chewie, Kippax, Howsie. Three spots in Division 1 are open to prompt entries. If there's an overflow of two or more, I'll start a Division 2 thread. Test matches: England (2, late Nov), Australia away (3, Dec-Jan), India (2...

    ***Official*** New Zealand Domestic Season 2018/19

    Auckland 21/3 after 4 against the Titans in Abu Dhabi. I'm going to stick with it for the one innings of Finn Allen's in the UAE I'm going to get this month (via a JAM T20 comp, not via NZC). "He's got to stay there, he looks a pretty good batsman" - Brian Lara.

    Kippax's Firebirds and Wellington Club Cricket Thread

    Contributing four players to the latest New Zealand U19 squad suggests I should really start overseeing an earnest little ****er of a thread like this. That lengthy period of adopting an 'everything's a big self-sabotaging, self-parodying joke' mentality with Wellington is potentially over. All...

    ***Official*** New Zealand Domestic Season 2017/18

    Major Association Pre-season Matches OTAGO VOLTS vs CANTERBURY Bowes gone for a duck. Fresh Wagner thundering a new ball into the middle of the pitch was always going to be a tough one for him.

    2016/17 New Zealand First-Class Season Draft

    I think Athlai said he would've liked Tests included in this last season, so this time we'll look at points being gained in the seven to be played (there's two against Pakistan, two against Bangladesh and three against South Africa). Be mindful that the likes of Munro will have potential...
