Manchester starting again for New Zealand

Whilst it seemed like Hamish McGregor was being given the nod for New Zealand as first choice, it appears that this isn't the case as Manchester got the start over him in today's game against India. This is a little confusing given the current run of things. In a tournament like this changing goalkeepers could be counter productive or even detrimental to the back four and resulting team performance as they keep adjusting to each goalkeeper's style of play, as goes with the Kookaburras (potentially, doesn't seem to be affecting them that much!!). Although there is no rush for them to decide on their starter for Rio and whilst it seems that the youngsters are being given good playing opportunities to develop, as Pontifex is still available. The Mazon foam wearer managed to keep things tied up as his team missed a great opportunity to score in the dying end of the game. You can see his performance in the video below:
