NZ Cricket

Following the NZ cricket team is gut wrenching. They seem to always do quite well with bowling and fielding. However, when it comes to batting they never live up to expectations. Unfortunately they just don't have the perseverance to bat long periods of time. I think the main problem is that they simply don't play enough test matches. Another contributing fact is that players come into the team too young and haven't done their apprenticeships in the national game and the main reason why that is happening is that the older players aren't staying around long enough.

Well done to England, hopefully NZ can do better once we go to England to play the English team over there.
