Wow, emotional stuff from Martin Crowe. I'd recommend reading this interview with McCullum, too, it's refreshingly deep, and not just "it was good to get a big score and help the team" bullshit.
"No tear in the eye. I'm from South Dunedin." 'I feel a little bit embarrassed'
Yeah that's a quality interview. Love the South Dunedin quote.
Hahaha that Zaltzman one is great, especially the comments about England having their best week.
I'm really liking NZ cricket as a whole at the moment.
Course, they'd be rolled for 9 in the face of Mitch, but for now let's let 'em enjoy it.
I really want an Australia vs New Zealand match - of any format - now just to see how much we've improved. Are we as good as the team of 2000-02 that could frequently defeat Australia? I don't think that's going to be the case until we sort out our openers (you can offload some of your surfeit of openers to us if you like) and find a replacement for Vettori. Sodhi hopefully will fill that role but he's a work in progress at present.
