The X Factor

So Xavier Doherty is the next new great white hope of Aussie spin bowling - I wish him better luck than the last few to amble up to the crease.

I know Hauritz has been around for a while but he really only brings V Factor - V for vanilla that is.

Maybe, like most pro sports, we could have a trading marketing where the Black Caps could send Vettori across the ditch in exchange for a couple of openers and a fast bowler.

He Who Laughs Last ....

... gets to giggle the longest.

Not sure why the Aussie boys would feel it necessary to give Hauritz the tickle up. I am pretty sure he was already very happy.

Still, as I always say, if it works keep giving it to them.

Hauritz Appeals

But not to many.

It is the mark of a flawed genius such KP to give his wicket away to the real struggler.
