He'll not be back at all if the selectors have any guts: seems hehas a historyof being a prize ****- cricinfo cite his refusal to attend a training camp for a 30-man World Cup squad, his refusal to play for New Zealand A last year and a sacking by Ireland after failing to turn up for a Friends Provident Trophy match against Surrey.

Combine this with the obvious lack of professionalism in his training (evidence: obesity) and it strikes me that he's a lost cause best abandoned right now.
