I guess it comes down to whether you are willing to accept a middle order with very little experience Todd/Flynn/Hay plus the relatively veteran Ryder or go for something with seemingly less natural talent, but comparatively bags of experience and pick Nicol over Todd or Flynn.

Nicol has had a disappointing season, relatively speaking. I could easily be swayed to select him over Todd, who I've never actually seen play rather than Flynn who looked promising when I first saw him play 2 years ago.

Tough one.

Redmond, McIntosh
Nicol, Ryder, Hay, Flynn
Griggs, Watling
Patel, N.McCullum
Hiini, Southee, Gillespie, McKay

or

Redmond, McIntosh
Ryder, Hay, Flynn, Todd
Griggs, Watling
Patel, N.McCullum
Hiini, Southee, Gillespie, McKay

Team A or Team B?
