oh thats completely bullshit
lights going off aren't out. his toe would've been down. and what the fuck happened to benefit of the doubt not a single person in the world can 100% say thats outYep. Just because in the first frame when he absolutely does have his toe squished into the turf the lights were on, doesn't 100% mean thta in the previous frame when the lights were on that his toe wasn't touching the turf. There's no way anyone can definitively see a gap in between.
@shark @westcoastie looked pretty out to me

So you could see a gap between Taylors' toe and the turf?

As desparately as I tried not to, yes.

I see where you're going with this so I looked up the laws and it appears I may be less right ...
29.1 Wicket put down
29.1.1 The wicket is put down if a bail is completely removed from the top of the stumps, or a stump is struck out of the ground,
...
29.1.2 The disturbance of a bail, whether temporary or not, shall not constitute its complete removal from the top of the stumps, but if a bail in falling lodges between two of the stumps this shall be regarded as complete removal.
(My bolding)

@Siam That's who the commentators are talking about.
Alternatives would include pushing Latham up to open, but I don't really like that because it's a tough gig opening and keeping - we tried it with Tom and he fell apart.
We could also just push Little Kane up to open - to hopefully lessen the risk of losing an early wicket - as we did with both Fleming and Crowe on occasion. But then Rossco probably has to bat 3 - unless Nicholls....
Or we try Nicholls or Neesham as openers.
I think I'd give Young his chance, even though I know virtually nothing about him.
Another dismal start by our openers, piling the pressure onto the rest.

Is Hamish Rutherford worth another look?
Rutherford, Worker and Young were the top order for NZ A, so one of those three for sure.
I think Young has the inside running because he was in an earlier full NZ squad.
Other interesting feature of today's team in a "must win" game is that Ferguson is playing and Southee (and Henry) is not.

Fuck, just back from a meeting and stopped into the local dairy for an update - my shop-keeping bro and I were lamenting yet another failure by our openers, and wondering who is likely to replace Munro. I mean enough is enough and whether it's talent, application or a mix (plus India bowling well) who cares. We are not getting the runs we need and Williamson and Taylor are pretty much opening.

Bike, Colin, on, your.
That's enough chances.
So ... does Latham open and keep?

Young has never opened in a List A match in his life.
Very good player though.Whatever they choose, its going to involve compromise somewhere.

What about the Neesh?

Kane to open isn't a bad option

Looking at Rutherford s cricinfo record at first class and list A levelh it is very underwhelming. I doubt he is the answer.
