New Zealand Looking For An Encore To Six-week Roller-coaster Tour Of Sub-continent: Latham
The New Zealand: The New Zealand cricket team has had a roller-coaster ride on this trip to the sub-continent around six weeks back. Their one-off Test against Afghanistan was washed out by rain without a ball being bowled. They then went to Sri Lanka and suffered a 0-2 thrashing by Sri Lanka.
But they hit a huge high in India, winning a Test series for the first time as they go into the third and final Test of the series starting at the Wankhede Stadium on Friday, New Zealand skipper Tom Latham, standing in for Kane Williamson, said they have managed to revive the up-and-down tour of six Tests against three different teams because they could keep things simple and adapt to the situation and kept playing their own brand of cricket.
"Yeah, we sort of looked at it in terms of having six test matches in these parts of the World which obviously gives us a great challenge to Test ourselves to see where we're at. I think from our point of view, it's always been about improving and adapting as best we can. And I mentioned last week that even though the results didn't go the way we wanted it in Sri Lanka, we did a lot of good stuff. It's just cricket sometimes where you fall on the wrong side of the result.
