Simon Doull.

I find Sky TVcricket commentator, Simon Doull, quite rude and nasty. I get the impression he doesn't like centres such as Nelson hosting Black Caps games. For what reason. I simply don't understand. Yes, Nelson has to perform to earn Black Caps games with good crowds and a good pitch. If Nelson doesn't then no it doesn't deserve international cricket. However, I think Nelson does well. We never get big teams like England, Australia or India visiting. But I think Nelson should get a test match against someone like Ireland or Afghanistan and maybe a big game with South Africa one day. Simon just doesn't just attack Nelson, he attacks the Basin Reserve in Wellington as well as Hagley Oval in Christchurch. But when it comes to Auckland's Eden Park or McLean Park in Napier he thinks they are great cricket grounds. However, in my opinion, they are not great cricket grounds they are rugby grounds. I have a challenge for Simon Doull. Next time he comes to Nelson I am prepared to cook him up a Canterbury potato and a Pukekohe potato and see which one he eats first. It's time for Simon to play nice.

On January 3rd, I went to Nelson Airport and met some of the cricketers from both the Sri Lanka and New Zealand teams. I was really pleased ...
