But l say wellington is better than most spinners we have in the setup.
Why not remove Hammy and PU and throw him in.

New Zealand to play as Aotearoa
New Zealand will adopt a temporary change during their tour of Africa, playing under the name Aotearoa for the first ODI against Zimbabwe in Harare on August 2. The one-off move will help celebrate Maori Language Week; Aotearoa is the Maori name for New Zealand, and will be emblazoned on the front of the team's playing shirts during the match.

Considering that Lady Hamilton was Lord Nelson's mistress they decided to steer clear of future brotherly trouble.

On another note I saw a guy at a mens clothing store yesterday that looked exactly like Hammy. I almost asked to take a picture to post it here. I swear even Hammy's mother wouldnt be able to tell these guys apart!
Seems to be alot in Siouthern Africa.
One of the many reasons crimes rampant in SA is alot of them just look the same, so they just blend into the distance once they jack someone.

According to Cricinfo, there are 4 changes for the NZ series: In: Nyumbu, Mpofu, Ervine, Jongwe. Out: Waller, Tiripano, Mutumbami, Vitori.
Personally pleased to see Nyumbu given another go, but sometimes I think our selectors just play a game of musical chairs...

Having said that, Our selection panel looks a lot better with Zhiel, Whatmore Hondo and Chigumbura. Love to have been a fly on the wall when they were discussing Utseya's inclusion....never thought I would see the day when I actually want one of our bowlers to get smashed out the attack, so he can get rightfully dropped and then hopefully banished.....
