It goes against everything that is natural to 'support' the Australian cricket team, but a 3-1 series win to them, gives the Black Caps a real shot to make the World Test Championship Final at Lords in June.

Think India would then need to beat England 3-0 or even 4-0, in their next series to pip the BCs.

BCs would still be big underdogs, but would love to see Jamieson & Co get a crack at the Baggy Greens in English conditions.

Even a 2-1 series win for Aussie (assuming it's a 4 test series) means that India would have to beat England 4-0 to finish ahead of us. So defiinitely  if you're a NZ cricket fan you should be supporting Australia, and then England, just to complete the dirty feeling.
