A left-arm medium-fast bowler who can swing the
ball, James Franklin was introduced to international cricket when
barely out of his teens when the injury blight hit New Zealand.
First picked for the one-day side in 2000-01, he was picked for the
home Test series against Pakistan the same year, but struggled to
make an impression and only played two Tests. He then lost his place
in the one-day team after the Sharjah Cup in April 2002. Originally
a player with batting potential, he has since worked more on his
bowling game, although there were hints during the domestic summer
of 2002-03 that he was regaining some of his batting touch. A player
with international ability, Franklin can be confidently expected to
regain his place and play a significant role in New Zealand's
future, and his chances were improved when called up to the Test
squad during the 2004 England tour for the last Test at Trent
Bridge. Playing club cricket in Lancashire at the time, he was named
as cover when Shane Bond had to fly home with his long-standing back
injury, and ended up taking an impressive six wickets in the match
which New Zealand lost. A call-up to the one-day squad followed
after more injuries, and he weighed in with a Man--of-the-Match
performance in the NatWest Series match against England, taking a
best of 5 for 42 at Durham. Named in the Test team to tour
Bangladesh in 2004-05 as a result of a fine summer, Franklin went on
to take 5 for 28 in the first Test.
