I can see why they're rotating players in and out of the squad. The Windies just ain't putting up a fight on this tour.
Such a great opportunity to pad averages though!!
Good to see some of the lesser lights - Nicholls, Astle, Worker and Ferguson - taking advantage.
That was an excellent partnership between Astle and Nicholls - Nicholls in particular.

@booboo I find it amusing the way we as sports fans can hold grudges for so long.
I am trying to think of the all time great NZ grudges - under arm bowl, that French forward pass, Dennis Connor...

@Higgins beat me to it with the Deans incident.

I wonder in years to come if they will be individual grudges or if they will merge into a generic grudge against French refs.

Meanwhile, the dead rubber is underway here in Christchurch, and the weather is adequate at best.

Neil Broom is a cricketing retard. Guide it on purpose to slips once... you are a fool... do it twice and you should be dropped form top flight cricket for a loooong time.

Insightful analysis from Rigor: "once people put Umbrella's up that means it's raining".

This second coming of Broom is rapidly turning into a disappointment after a very promising start. Seems like he's a nemesis against Bangladesh (who he averages 58 against from 9 innings) and pretty poor against pretty much everyone else - he averages slightly less than 18 against non-Bangladeshi opponents.

Broom played some very good innings last summer and over the winter as well against good opposition. Brownlie is the only other option to bat 3 IMO with Williamson out. Broom was always a bit of a short term solution.
They could've given one of the young guys a go.

Good call. Broom is hardly likely to suddenly get better at his age.
