Cricket - NZ vs Pakistan

There's some top quality talk back ( is that an oxymoron) from Devlin calling this one of the great NZ test series wins.
The Black Caps were behind Pakistan in every single stat.. ..except the one that mattered. Shah took 29 wickets and his team still lost the series !

One of the articles posted above makes the point that the difference was that almost all of our players chipped in through out the series, whereas Pakistan were reliant on a couple of guys going big. That gave us the strength to recover after earlier failures while Pakistan were boom or bust.

That's pretty much what Craig McMillan said. We also only got 2 centuries to their 5.

Raval is a shit house catcher. Every time I watch the Craps he seems to drop one.

There's quite an interesting pattern in the run scoring figures.
Kane...and Nicholls
Four Pakistanis
Four New ZealandersThen Safraz, CdG, Imam and Hafeez who all had awful series.
And then all the bowlers who batted 8-11, none of whom scored many runs.

He started off in the slips before being banished to the outfield.
