This news is a couple of days' old, but I just noticed it. In a recent first-class match between Gloucestershire and Oxford University former New Zealand opener Craig Spearman struck 216 ("retired out") off only 168 balls. One poor unfortunate - a Mr SJP Moreton - making his debut for Oxford bowled one over in the match. The significant thing about this one over was that it was delivered to Spearman, who whacked it for 34 runs.
Not a bad start to the season for Spearman then. Andre Adams didn't do too badly in his first game for Essex either. He took 3-52 and 0-9 in a rain affected match against Yorkshire.

Mike - do you know which of the Black Caps are off to play in England? I know Fleming is off to Notts, and I recall Hamish Marshall saying that NZ Cricket were trying to get him a contract.
