Shout out to Bevon Jacobs who never got a game under Stead - the new coach picks him in his first game in charge and Jacobs responds with a wonderful batting effort on debut
Was anybody actually calling for his inclusion before he was plucked from nowhere for the IPL?

I was thinking of the 3 match series at home vs Sri Lanka where he was selected in the squad but never got a game - was a waste of an opportunity.

Well we smacked SA last night, I saw most of the first innings before going to bed, they didn't have any answers to our bowlers. Looks like Seifert got going to get us home at a canter.
We have our last game against Zimbabwe tomorrow before the final against SA on Saturday night.

Good effort from Henry to defend 8 in the final over against two set batters. 2 wickets plus a dropped catch. Another brutal choke in a knock out for the South Africans.
They've already reached their allocation for world titles for the next decade at least

Nice to win a meaningless T20 series no one will remember 2 weeks from now… but seriously how good is Henry across all 3 formats now
I’ll have forgotten two days from now…
Matt Henry’s improvement across all formats is inspiring stuff. The numbers are excellent across the board.
Still got quite a few years left in the team provided injuries and form don’t become issues for him.
Considering until fairly recently he was pretty much a spare part if Southee/Boult/Wagner broke down he’s done so well to get where he is

One of those players where stats and a bit of luck finally swung the way of talent that was always there.
yep hard work pays off and he is a hard worker off the field as well as on.

Southee made a career out of chucking pies from start to finish.Now he is teaching the English bowlers not sure what though.
