Allot was very good, shame he only played 31 games
Stats are top notch, 52 wickets @ 23.21 and SR @ 29.38interesting fun fact, only 2 Black Caps have a Strike Rate under 25 (at least 20 wickets)
One is currently in the side with 35 wicketsthe other took 60 wickets
any guess who they are without cheating?
the 2nd one is a bit surprising, not a front line bowler.Jamieson and de Grandhomme?

No both wrong sorry…

Is this tests or ODIs? Duffy might be the 35 wickets.
60 wickets for someone who isn't a front line bowler is an interesting amount, especially since they came fast - about 250 overs.
Jesse Ryder and Corey Anderson spring to mind as guys who had a bit of a golden arm. I suspect Anderson took more wickets and Ryder much less.

That’s a bingo
Yup Duffey is the one with 35 wickets and it Corey Anderson who has 60
The only bowlers with a strike rate under 25
I suspect it will eventually be only Anderson though
Pretty amazing stat -

Brian McKechnie
Chatsneeds work but think its a good start...
You need a keeper, Tony Blain bleached his hair. He'll do.
Some fine and extremely worthy selections from the 92 era in there though.
Shane Bond was far too world class for a team like this, he's no chance.
Rod for Wright is very good
Taking our Twose for Blain though?
I thought about it but couldnt bring myself to include him but in reality the most likely keeper we've had with his own following is the inventor of Bazball himself.forgot about Larsen
Greatbatch
Latham Snr
Ryder
Twose
Elliott
Baz
Harris
Lance Cairns
Patel
Larsen
McKechnieNo love for Murphy Sua or Willie Watson in this team…?

Going to throw out a random name on that basis...
Martin Crowe?

Corey Anderson who has 60
I suspect it will eventually be only Anderson thoughCorey Anderson was a prodigious talent. Pro contract at 15 or 16 and just nuts. Injuries and possibly some mental stuff meant we didn't see long term high performance from him. Still got that insanely quick ton in Queenstown I believe.

Yup briefly held the record for the fastest 100 in ODI before ABdv took
Funny enough the fern fav Ryder scored a ton in that game too but it was over shadowed by Anderson’s
