Auckland have decided they don't want wicket-keeper Adam Parore for their next State Championship match starting in Palmerston North against Central Districts on Monday.

Parore, who told the national selectors he was taking an indefinite break from cricket 10 days ago, was available for selection.

But Auckland Cricket chief executive Lindsay Crocker said: "Adam has demonstrated an unwillingness to play for us.

"The selectors prefer to stick with someone who makes a full contribution to the team both on and off the field," he said.

That effectively turns the onus back on the national selectors about whether to pick Parore for the Test series against England without him having played any cricket since the CLEAR Black Caps returned from Australia.

Consistently they have asked players returning from injury to play domestic cricket to prove their fitness and it will be a test of their policy as they consider their options before naming the Test side.

The Auckland team is: Brooke Walker (captain), Andre Adams, Chris Drum, Matt Horne, Llorne Howell, Tim McIntosh, Rob Nicol, Mark Richardson, Reece Young, Gareth Shaw, Lou Vincent, Sam Whiteman.
