NZ Super Max: Allott omitted

Canterbury will field its strongest Shell Super League Cricket Max
team but Black Cap Geoff Allott has been omitted from the team
against Otago in its fourth-round match at Carisbrook tomorrow night.
Left-arm fast-medium bowler Allott was included in the original Max
team selection for the first weekend of matches and is bowling
impressively at first-class level as he seeks a return to the test
arena and was in the Black Caps one-day team for two recent tours
overseas.
But he was expensive in the early Max games often through the pace he
generated and selection panel convener Brian McKechnie said the
selectors had to look at their bowling options for the specialist two
10-overs-a-side games.
Squads
Canterbury: Llorne Howell (captain), Nathan Astle, Stephen
Fleming, Chris Cairns, Chris Harris, Craig McMillan, Ben Yock, Mark
Hastings, Warren Wisneski, Shane Bond, Darron Reekers, Mark Priest.
Otago: Robbie Lawson (captain), Chris Gaffaney, Matthew Horne,
Andrew Hore, Rhiane Smith, Graeme Greene, Stephen Mather, Aaron Gale,
Glenn Jonas, Martyn Croy, Shayne O'Connor, Nathan Morland.
