What an absolute shellacking. Great stuff.
Puts the aussie fiasco into context. We've totally dominated India
It makes me even angrier about the Aus fiasco. We're so much better than the shitshow we put together for that tour. We just had our tactics all wrong, which I've talked about already on here
Forget the rankings. Aussie in Aussie is the hardest challenge in cricket. But I agree we didn't help ourselves on a host of levels
India in India would be right up there now. Those two, then daylight.

New Zealand in New Zealand looks like a handful too.

Meanwhile at Millbrook, itβs a cracker arvo watching DMac, BB, Goldie and Izzy smash it around in a T10
I see you're really struggling to adjust down there.... How is the meat bin?
The place we are looking after has a coupe of freezers full and considering that the front paddock has 20 Angus stud bulls in it, I'm guessing I can find something decent
Trouble is that I've got some Crays and Blue Cod to get through first.Weather is great though and I've just found out that entry to the Open is free so even though I'm not a golf fan, it is just down the road and might fill in a gap before the next test.
I could get very used to this life.

Ross's 100th test match results in 100th test win for NZ π
Ross has played in 36 of those victories.
I'm guessing that's a record for NZ players?
wonder how many Brian Waddle has commentated

Sweet! We are one of the main sponsors so two from the business get to play the pro-am each year.
So far, not me

Looking at a few recent Indian scorecards - I think Rohit Sharma is probably the only player they're missing from their top line-up?
I don't think he'd have added much. I think he might be the most overrated batsman in the world at the moment. Text book definition of a flat track bully.

Google tells me Brian started in 1981 - so possibly as many as 88!

Yeah, makes him a weapon in the batsmen friendly shorter forms, but not someone that concerns me a great deal in a test where the ball actually doing something.

In the never ending search for narrative, what does this all mean. We just hammered India. We've beaten England. But we've also been ritually humiliated in Australia.
I'm kidding, I don't care. We just murdered India. Fucking yew!

Number 1 side in the world by a fair margin. Number 1, then daylight.
Aus/Eng/NZ are clustered.

Think it just highlights how difficult it is for teams to win away in Australia, New Zealand and India.
Especially when the home team wins the toss, cricinfo just put up an article highlighting this.We havenβt lost a test at home after winning the toss since 2009!! 10 wins, plus even when we lost the toss we still win more then we lose.
