      What's the bare minimum here? Surely we need to get atleast a lead of 250

        I genuinely have no idea. Hopefully someone else does.

        His run of scores is just abysmal

            Not if he is going to open the batting. That is unreasonable.

              Yeah fairly sure it’s never been done consistently at test level. Alec Stewart always went down the order when he had the gloves as one example.

                Dane Cleaver would probably be next in line as a pure wicket keeper, but Blundell probably has the slightly better first class record (although averages less) so probably not much of an upgrade.

                Mitch Hay will be the keeper at some point in the future but probably a bit inexperienced at the moment (has played for NZA already though).

                  I don't believe it would be at all practical. You can't have a keeper concentrating and bending down all day in the field and then having to immediately start batting. It does not seem conducive to a good opening partnership.

                  Kuggelijn looks all at sea. He may as well swing at a few and hope to get some edges over slips.

                    He’s going ok. Having a swing and up to 29 very useful runs

                      He listened to me though I was not really being serious.

                      Up to 29 now. I don't want him to get out playing a stupid shot but he does seem to have a reasonable eye.

                                  Cam Fletcher? He has been part of the test squad before. Think he was there during the world test championship win
