BLACKCAPS Hosting Australia - Second ODI Pre-pre
Dave Warner and his Australian comrades can't be smoked twice right?

Trent Boult and Matt Henry do damage, while Henry Nicholls looks like a left-handed mini Kane Williamson. And we smashed Australia.
We've all just seen Australia handle India's run-scoring exploits with ease and Eden Park is a child's cricket ground which I see Australia dining out on
George Worker, he'll murk ya
Canterbury cruised through to the final after rain ruined their Elimination Final against Otago and here we are, anticipating an intriguing Ford Trophy final between Canterbury and Central Districts.
Welcome home Henry, how nice of you to remember us.
And so we sing "Fuuuuuuuury, he's a furr-ball..."
Jacob Duffy is set for a show down with Ed Nuttall, while we're #TeamRyder and Neil Broom goes alright.
Colin Munro's earned an ODI call up as the BLACKCAPS roll out a futuristic ODI squad to face Pakistan.
Hamish Rutherford and the Otago Volts have charged into the finals, there's the usual recaps and a few finals predictions as well.
There's new faces in Australia's bowling group, who apparently like our conditions. There's also Josh Hazlewood who is the second coming of Glenn McGrath, that's who we should be worried about. Summer Is Coming...
Big Mitch is all over this T20 sitch, while the BLACKCAPS middle order certainly isn't.
Neil Broom is the Street-Sweeper, brushing bowlers to the side. Broom's Otago Volts are pushing for the finals while Auckland also snatched a win and rain killed the buzz in Christchurch.
Ben Wheeler usually takes wickets, against Northern Districts he and Doug Bracewell both scored the runs. Weird huh? Catch up on the latest round of Ford Trophy.
Guess who's back!? Mr Boom Boom Biggalow himself and his band of Pakistani cricketers who have played so much T20 cricket it makes my head spin.
Mitchell Santner is a spinner who can bat real well, which leaves room for other spinners, especially in India where the World T20 will be held.
Todd Astle got the nod from the BLACKCAPS selectors after some handy Ford Trophy form, plus Ryder's still scoring, Nicholls returns and where's Jimmy's runs?
Jesse Ryder is himself a cricket team who I support, who I want the best for, who takes wickets, scores runs and grabs catches.
Daryl Mitchell went large (souvenir details inside), Ryder's consistent and Otago consistently suck.
Guptill and Henry were great, Nicholls and Milne not so. Let's get into some wash up form this ODI series.
