Geoff Longley writes in the Press. Not surprisingly he thinks Cantabrian Shane Bond should have won the Redpath Cup for bowler of the year instead of Chris Martin, who left Canterbury last season to play for Auckland.
In the Sunday-Star Times Michael Donaldson compares hard-working bowlers Mark Gillespie and Ewen Thompson before the start of the State Championship final.
In the Herald Richard Boock gets really steamed up because Scott Styris might be dropped from the New Zealand team. If Richard is this angry now, I can't wait to see him if Styris does actually get the chop.
I thought there might be a little tension at the Herald's cricket desk, because Adam Parore has responded to Richard Boock's fury by criticising "a number of media commentators ... fixated on ... selection policy" and praising Styris' competition - Jacob Oram. But perhaps Boock is getting a little tired of all the shouting, because his rant about Saint Scott has been followed by a nice profile of Oram.
Away from the Styris/Oram battle,Dylan Cleaver talks about Matthew Sinclair's move into exile, a theme Mark Richardson and the prolific Richard Boock also take up.

That's a good side, but I would want Fulton in there (he has done bloody well so far) and another pace man (probably Jimmy Franklin).
