that's a throwback Black Caps result. Embarrassingly flogged with only our spinner showing some backbone...
Look winning in India has always been really fucking hard, and even more so now. But after that fucking pasting the opportunities not taken in the first test look even worse.

I don't mind losing in India, most do. But we got totally pumped

Bullshit decision. Getting ten in an innings is incredible, the fact only two blokes beforehand did it speaks volumes.
Speaks volumes to how insipid our other bowlers were. Taking 10 wickets in 48 overs is something many more would have achieved if the rest of the bowling attack had been as helpful to the cause as ours.

Losing both tosses was absolutely critical. We needed them to go our way to have a realistic chance.

Not sure if winning the second toss would have helped us much....

Unlike some NZ rugby journos, it looks like Wisden doesn't write up a player as having a shocker and then score them a pass mark... Marks out of 10: Player ratings for New Zealand in the India Test series

Somervilles innings was very handy in the context of things, definitely helped us sneak a draw.
So I’m comfortable with him rating higher than Nicholls and Taylor and the same as KW.
But…..all things considered I don’t want to see him in test colours again.

More on the Taylor decision...
Seems like wishful thinking. Nicholls is the first cab off the rank to be dropped and he just seems to glosses over Mitchell requiring selection as a specialist batsman.

@rotated I hope Ross gets at least one test at home to show if he's 100% done or it was more about Indian conditions ... or something like that.

One more test to say bye
