NZ team named for 20/20 WC

So the squads out for the 20/20 World cup in South Africa.

Major development is that Flemings gone and Vettori is captain although that's been rumored for a while.

Nathan McCullum and Bradley Scott get a chance to while Gareth Hopkins is in alongside Brendon McCullum.

Heard Willie "worst broadcaster in NZ" Lose talking to Braces this afternoon and he said they're going to SA with the intention of bringing back the trophy and this is the best possible team they could name.
He's planning to open with Vincent and b.McCullum and said there was the possibility of playing Brendan and Gareth Hopkins in the same game whiel Jacob Oram will likely bat at 3.

What are your thoughts people?

And the full squad is:
Daniel Vettori (Captain), Shane Bond, Peter Fulton, Mark Gillespie, Gareth Hopkins, Chris Martin, Craig McMillan, Brendon McCullum, Nathan McCullum, Jacob Oram, Jeetan Patel, Bradley Scott, Scott Styris (subject to fitness), Ross Taylor, Lou Vincent
