English on Italian

Peter English, has written a profile of Daniel Vettori for Baggy Green in which he calls for Dan's selection in the World XI matches against Australia and slams the rest of the New Zealand attack.

Interesting article and the comparison with Andy Flower was pretty apt. For a while it looked like Vettori might have Bond as another world-class player but that wasn't to be. I think Jacob Oram is our great hope and really hope that Oram and Vettori can play together.

Hadlee didn't just have Crowe - more importantly, he had Chatfield. A great bowler needs another great bowler keeping the pressure on. In the PWC ratings, I noticed that in the 80s while Hadlee was constantly rated number 1, Chats was usually rated number 10.
