New Spin on Daniel Vettori

[Player]

Latest word on Vettori is his ankle injury is minor and is expected to play a meaningful role in the three test series.

He has a fitness test on Friday which he is expected to pass and will then rejoin the team immediately.

Daniel Vettori first test anyone?

I heard that he would likely be ready for the second test in Hobart.

My source is Bryan Waddle, New Zealand radio cricket commentator of over 100 tests.

Assuming he will pass his test, increasingly considered likely, New Zealand cricket wants him to play this weekend in an invitation game in Christchurch, New Zealand before rejoining the touring party.

It is of course then up to the selectors to pick him for the first test but who would you choose from

Vettori 100+ wickets @ 30 average
and can bat kind of

Wiseman 30 wickets @ 45 average
and is a bowler the captain has no confidence in

Sulzburger never represented his country before

Even almost fit I think it is a no brainer.
