Love how all the haters have come back to have a pop at the Black Caps now they are struggling again.
It is one test in a desert sharkhole. Relax.
Not a hater, just sick of being let down when they get a group of guys together that show some potential only to get arrogant and then screw up more often than not.
As for this test, Latham has shown that the pitch is like ashphalt and that any batsman is going to hit a big score. The wicket is offering absolutely nothing to the bowlers, kinda makes the test a waste of time.
Please give me one example of any of this group of players 'showing some potential and getting arrogant'. Please, I dare you.
In the end, we've been pretty well humped here. Bowlers will be better for a run under their belts in these conditions and hopefully the batsmen will as well. Pakistan are a good side, no way to hide that fact.
Will judge them after all three tests but even if we lose all three I don't think you can think anything but our test cricket has developed a million percent in the last two seasons.
