Okay, so we got thrashed by Australia again.  But there are thrashings and then there are thrashings.  Zimbabwe have just proven that there are worse places to be a cricket fan.
It is interesting to note how different the New Zealand test team will be from the one day side.  Gone is the entire pace attack - Mills, Hamilton, Cairns, Canning and Wilson are out, and replacing them are O'Brien, Franklin and Martin.  It could be a selection of horses for courses as Martin and O'Brien are both short of a length bowlers and that should suit the fast Jade Stadium surface.  And incidently, who on earth decided to help the Australians by starting the test series on a surface tailor-made for their bowlers?
