Yeah he's extremely lucky to still be in the frame for ODIs at all, but he's been perfectly fine in Tests. Not gun, but fine.

After a good start he dropped a fair few in the slips last year ... needs to work on it.

Have to take back my criticisms of the selections, pretty much everyone made a quality contribution towards the win.
Wish Wagner had got his 10 though.
So does Watling come straight back in for the second test if fit?

That's up to the selectors. It would be extremely harsh to drop Blundy after a ton and a tidy job behind the stumps.

Didn’t realise how bad the West Indies’ Test record in New Zealand is; they’ve actually won a Test in Australia more recently than they have in NZ and only won two Tests there since 1969.
As an aside, quite bizarre that the West Indies didn’t play a solitary Test in New Zealand throughout the 1970s.

Didn't keep for ND so doubt he'll be considered for the second test either.
Presumably Southee will be back though.

Well, yeah. But in would also be harsh to drop a bloke who scored 67 in a crucial 4th wicket partnership.

If they were going to do this (as I advocated for), they would've done it in the first Test, as he was fit to bat. Nothing has changed to make them change their minds on that one.
