Black Caps vs Windies Series
-
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.

Like who? Bruce isn't a #3.

Poor decision, that was missing by miles. Can't believe they didn't review.

In fairness, those often don't go your way when they are just clipping, so can't be too critical. Poor decision though, did not look out.

8/4, this tour can't end soon enough for the Windies.

Windies will be a bit better in the T20s with Badree, Pollard and Braithwaite but the rest of them look so terrible right now it shouldn't make a difference.
I don't think there can be any doubt that this current Windies side is definitely worse than Bangladesh.
