Seems like the players are content to win 2-1 and will have one eye on flying home for Christmas. Bit shit for the fans who have travelled like although NZ did bowl well.

The first two tests papered over the fact the Kiwis are actually a world class side.

We just haven't turned up, and got steam rollered.

Watch us chase 500 or something 4th innings now.

It could be as simple as we played better cricket then them first two tests and them better than us this tests.

Two good sides as that happens in test cricket

Well quite, that's why they want to get the pesky cricket done early so they can get a few rounds in before, their scheduled flight which I imagine is booked for Thursday

I'd have given Rehan a game it would strengthen the batting as well

I wanted him to play here too, but now come India, England have to consider Stokes' bowling again when picking the make up of the bowlers.

Is it wrong to say that I think Bashir has bowled worse as the year has progressed, rarely bowled a bad ball in India from what I can remember yet all summer and winter been a drag down every over

Yep. I can't complain about possibly being tonked in this match as it was this approach that won the series in the first two tests.
I'm not having my cake and eating it like 🤣

NZ set us a total of 658.

They must have been worried we'd be a lot better second time around.

No chance of that.
