I actually agreed with the decision. As much as it was swinging a bit, the thought of a tiring pace attack trying to run through Cook, Bell, Trott etc could have been messy (e.g. 2nd Innings in Dunedin). Would much rather see them have a rest and come back firing. Plus McCullum was in a far better position to make a call on how much they had left in the tank.
Looking forward to today though.
P.S. Is anyone changing their tune on McCullum/Hesson? I'm starting to nibble on some humble pie.
