Nice to have an away win.  Good job, even against a really poor Windies team.

They are I guess, but still have a number of players (e.g. Gayle, Chanderpaul) who on a given day could take apart any attack in the world. Plus we're talking about the Black Caps here... so I'm going to treasure any test win we get.

Completely.  I was going to add that about Gayle and Chanderpaul myself but ran out of steam.  Reading back, my post seems more negative than it was meant.  I was meaning that despite the knockers (and you can't argue with them really the WI are poor) it is still really good to win away from home.
