I live in India. Am an avid Cricket Follower. Can some one tell me the Name of the Cricketer who has represented NZ in Test Matches and is a Qualified Medical Doctor? - Shankar. C.N.

Not sure, I'm fairly certain it wasn't a recent player. Martin Sneddon (1980s player and current head of NZ cricket) is a lawyer and Adam Parore has a law degree too. Lisiate 03:01, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

It's Justin Vaughan - now NZC CEO

[edit] Copyvio pic?

That's a nice pic of the Black Caps in the article. Unfortunately, it has www.photosport.co.nz on it, top left hand corner. Is it in fact copyvio? Moriori 23:22, August 17, 2005 (UTC)

  • I'm not sure that that means fair-use at all. Isn't publishing an image in the internet redistribution as per the second sentence above? The link goes on to say: You may request in writing to Photosport Limited to be supplied with an image or images for certain specified uses. Such request will require a written agreement to be reached between you and Photosport Limited governing the use of the image or images. -- Ian ≡ talk 00:47, 18 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Matches this year

The article says NZ has played 3 tests this year. Haven't they finished a 3 match test series as well against South Africa?

[edit] All Rounders Double

This article states that the double is 3000 runs and 200 wickets, yet the Wiki Category for it states that it's 3000 runs and 300 wickets, a feat that only one NZ player, Richard Hadlee has achieved. Pottski

Whether the definition is 200 or 300 wickets, Shane Warne needs to be added to the list (as he now has over 3000 test runs).

A quality allrounder is someone who has a higher batting average than their bowling average. There are far too many bowlers-who-can-bat-a-bit in the alllrounder lists simply because they have played so many games - even Muali has over 1000 runs. I suggest deleting all those players whose bowling average is higher than batting average.

[edit] New link

I've just added a new external link to our NZHistory.net.nz feature on New Zealand cricket. It is written by a professional historian and includes images and videos. Let me know if there is a problem with this. Thanks.

[edit] adding links to scorecards

I think it would be good to set up a new column in the "first test", "series" and "oneday" wins verses each nation tables to link to the scorecards of these games. perhaps hyperlinking from a column with the game number? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 202.49.35.20 (talk) 04:08, 4 April 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Injury

Given the injury list during the Cricket World Cup, is there a list of replacements? I only know that Hamish Marshall replaced Lou Vincent.

[edit] Current Squad

The current squad should include players who played last seaosn and have a reasonable chance of playing for NZ in the upcoming season, not just those on a contract.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Black caps.gif

Image:Black caps.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Timing of Updates

This page is badly lacking in references (basically, each statistic should be linked to the relevant source, (which is nearly always cricinfo - finding a stat there without a direct link can be difficult). Therefore, editors should refrain from updating statistics while a match is in progress. It would be best to wait until Cricinfo has updated, probably 24 hours after the conclusion of a game. That way we will avoid figures on the page being out of step with the sources. dramatic (talk) 00:22, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
