*Official* New Zealand tour of India 2024

King Kane

International Regular
Latham has to go down as one of our greatest ever test openers.

John Wright, Bruce Edgar and Mark Richardson are the other great NZ test openers that I have seen.

None of them were all that great tbh, they just weren't as bad as all the other test openers we've had.

If NZ do win, this test resembles one of those famous one-off backfire wins on spin tracks we see with Aus and Eng series in India.

The problem is it is coming in the heels of a freak win in the first test. India normally do the gamble that over a longer series their spin superiority with win them over.

If NZ do win, it all comes down to that first morning of the first test that really changed the possibilities of this series.
