New Zealand Cricket in no man's land

Meanwhile, New Zealand finds itself in a peculiar situation.

 

"New Zealand Cricket has threatened to exclude players who join the breakaway Indian Cricket League."

 

This puts them in a situation of finding quality players to play in the national team.

 

As Tim May, chief executive of FICA, the international players' association, points out, " So what are we going to do, have a New Zealand second XI out there?"

 

Uh! Uh! I doubt whether they can field a 'second XI', or maybe yes, if they include half a dozen sheep in the team.
