Not even bitter, but does that really qualify as a 'series' victory?

well it certainly aint a loss

and congrats to the Kiwis on a good series win on the back of some excellent line and length and disciplined bowling

4 tests over the summer isn't enough - but they don't pay the bills I guess

We take what we can get, we're a better side than England IMO (or at least should be) but as per the last tour in the UK have a tendency to shit the bed at times - nearly did that again, thank Christ we didn't - shame Sodhi is not close to a test bowler atm

Lol @ the two test 'series'.

Every series should be a minimum three tests.

The ICC must really hate Test cricket.

of course it does, both sides knew it was only 2 tests or did someone forget to tell the poms lol

The way some of the kiwis spoke and celebrated after the match speaks volume, they won this series

Agree with others should be 3 tests minimum if you have test status

We draw in india and in south Africa if it was only 2 tests, instead we get walloped lol

As fans we take whatever test series we can get...

We bottled the last series in England, and indeed the last one at home against them for draws - we hadn't beaten England in a test series at home since 1983/4 I think - that's a long time, and indicative of how we are battlers at cricket - as an Eels fan I am sure the mid-80s bring back fond memories for you too LOL
