Time to try out ICC2012!
WINDIES v NZ (1st 20/20 2012)
The first task facing NZ under their new selector/manager was a tour to the Windies.
Two 20/20 Internationals were scheduled first and our 15 man squad was selected mainly on their record in this form of the game.
With regular keeper/opener, Brendon MacCullum out injured, we took Lou Vincent as our main keeper.
The playing elevens for the first 20/20 were as follows:
The big buzz amongst NZ fans was the selection of two promising bowlers, 20 year old RFM Matt Henry and 22 year old SLA Nick Beard.
Henry is seen as the hottest bowling prospect to have arrived on the NZ scene in a long time.
Amongst the batsmen were 25 year olds, Colin Munro and Stewart Rhodes.
The opening 20/20 proved to be a real thriller, with the home side just failing to get over the line.
