    Wellington pace bowler Hamish Bennett insists they're just happy to be back on the field, regardless of who they're playing to open the domestic season

    Wellington pace bowler Hamish Bennett insists they're just happy to be back on the field, regardless of who they're playing to open the domestic season


    Bennett will line up for Wellington this summer, with the Plunket Shield first up starting tomorrow against Canterbury.

    The southerners have added Daryl Mitchell to their roster as well as new coach Peter Fulton.

    But Bennett doesn't care who they play.
