India is probably the true #2 but NZ has reached its nadir.

Wahoo the lofty heights of number 7 for at least 3 weeks.
Our tour of NZ really is the basement battle, and having watched this latest series, I think it's going to be pretty close.

As long as your boys can bowl straight, NZ won't score over 250. Ever.
Not one Test-class batsmen in their entire team. A couple of their top seven are barely even first-class quality.

If the Yarpies beat us this summer they join us as equal #1s...
If they go up one to 8/9 won't we drop one to go 7/9?

5th - New Zealand - currently defending 5 out of 9 series.
Those five are: Bangers, India (snigger), Sri Lanka (snigger), Windies and Zimmers...

Depends on how our warm up match goes as far as the pace bowling is concerned, though I'd guess this will be more or less it:
Gayle
Chattergoon
Sarwan
Marshall
Shiv
Nash/Johnson
Ramdin
Taylor
Benn
Powell/Roach/Baker
Edwards
Our batting lineup is pretty terrible too, but at least we have test class batsmen in Sarwan (barely) and Shiv. We are going to miss Bravo bigtime.

What about Morton?
I know he might not be as talented as other but he should some guts during the series against AUS.
If Edwards and Taylor stay fit then WI will surely win the series.

IND will have a HUGE chance when they play against them in the upcoming series.
SL? when did that happen?

They have decided to give more sensible batsmen like Johnson and Nash a try as they got a bit fed up of watching Morton give away his wicket.
If they fail he will be back soon enough as he scores loads of runs in our domestic competition.
