Martin Crowe, 49, is going to make a comeback. "The question is: can he produce this [his form in the nets] at the pinnacle of club cricket and represent Auckland again at first-class level? asks Andrew Alderson in the New Zealand Herald.
"I'm on track, religiously practising at the Papatoetoe indoor nets and at Cornwall," Crowe says. "The skills sessions are going great. I've been working through a few niggles with my hip flexor and hamstrings but apart from that, I'm fine. I'm not due to play until November [when two-day club cricket begins]. As tempting as it may be, I won't play 50-over cricket; that's a young man's game.
