So, no, they were just kind of okay, weren't they?

And, yeah, England didn't play well, so that's why they lost.

Look, it's just...

The New Zealand side's a good side, and Matt Henry's numbers, we had them up yesterday, just phenomenal since Trent Bolts retired, and he had a very sporadic start to his test career.

It's a good side.

I thought they'd miss Kane Williamson a lot.

What Henry Nicholls has been able to do in the last six, eight months in domestic cricket is bang the door down.

Are they a top one, two side in the world?

No.

But that's kind of where New Zealand's at.

We're always going to be in that three, four, five ranking, I think.

In world cricket, we'll beat some sides, we'll lose to some sides, and we'll be very good at home generally.

And that's, if you look back across the history of New Zealand cricket, it's kind of how we've been.

Yeah, and also, I mean, we haven't played a lot of test match cricket, but we have played a bit in that time.

I think Kane was unavailable for that Zimbabwe series last year.

And I think someone was injured, whether Will Young or Kane was injured with the 200 ball.

three years ago.

So he had a good run.

He had a really good run for quite a long time, Henry Nicholls.

And then after a double hundred or a big hundred at the basin, he had five or six low scores and then got left out of the side.
