Thank you New Zealand
Thank you.
Thank you for coming down to play with us and inviting us back. Thank you for being gracious in defeat. Thank you for allowing us to revel in the two back to back whitewashes - particularly as you had in the past caused us great grief.
Thank you for being good sports.

I wanted to open a similar thread.
I have to thank them. Even despite the unrest they stayed in Bangladesh. Now imagine had they fled what an insult it would have been for us.
They did not even.complain.

Signed.
New Zealand is a very good team and good luck to them against SL and WI. I'm sure they'll recover strongly from this tour as they've done in the past.
New Zealand team - you've always been great ambassadors of this sport and you can be proud of that.

My gratitude towards Black Caps. Would like more if they had Daniel Vettori in the lineup.

Thanks for playing us in a highly commercialised cricket world (because of India) where no one other than Zimbabwe wants to play us.

Yeah, they were very nice and polite throughout the tour, didnt forgot to congratulate BD boys and their play. I thought Taylor deserved to be the Man-of-the-Series. Wish they invite us pretty soon or even play with BD more often.

Thanks for the thrilling series.
Despite the Banglawash, I feel NZ cricket on the right track by start grooming players for WC 2015. Our selectors should follow their lead in trying to develop atleast one medium pacer-alrounder.

Mark Richardson: Failure is not an option
New Zealand skipper Brendon McCullum shouldn't be using rustiness as an excuse for defeat in Bangladesh.
How much interest this current tour of Bangladesh has been generating is debatable. It's not been one of the more eye-catching, nor, anticipated series our team has been involved in.
It was probably summed up quite nicely when, last Tuesday night, my wife and I switched over the TV to the ODI. My wife's first reaction to seeing the cricket was: "The Black Caps are playing? Oh, nobody would even know this s**t is on."
Fair reaction, I thought. However tonight's game does catch my eye and holds a lot of interest.
Tonight is a must-win occasion. Yeah, I know, it's not a decider, the series is gone and it's not a game for survival because ... well ... the series is gone. It is, however, a game for dignity and credibility.
I am not being disrespectful to Bangladesh here or even the Black Caps because Bangladesh are a reasonable team now and not an easybeat - but a drawn test series and a whitewash in the ODIs is not acceptable and approaches hang-your-head-in-shame time.
I refuse to buy into the ever-growing popular opinion that we should not be getting upset any more by what our cricket team does - because I expect better and, more importantly, if they believe they are as good as they think they are, then they should believe a loss tonight will cause public outcry.
So what we have now is a must-win game with genuine pressure. It's is not a situation in which the Black Caps have performed overly well in the past. Every so often, they have punched above their perceived weight against England or Australia but ultimately lost the crucial games; this time they must play for their respectability against a team they should beat.
With players like Martin Guptill, Jesse Ryder, Daniel Vettori waiting in the wings and Kane Williamson rehabbing, this is the time for the young guys to show they can play under pressure which is a desirable quality for the selectors. More importantly, it's the time for the senior players to do what senior players are meant to do - perform when it matters.
There are no excuses tonight. They cannot blame their build-up because they have enough cricket behind them and they certainly cannot blame conditions because our cricketers play so much cricket on the subcontinent nowadays.
Rustiness as an excuse, as used by captain Brendon McCullum, is not valid either because, if they believe they are as good as they say they are, even a rusty performance should be enough to sneak past the Bangladesh challenge.
Rustiness should not result in a 40 run-hammering as in the last game.

Thank you for coming and playing. You will grow as we are growing. Have a safe trip back or where ever (SL may be for some) you are going.

Yup, we should also start recruiting players from South Africa and Australia.

Ronchi actually chocked and gave the match away in the crunch time. No wonder he only got a handful of matches to play for Australia.

I actually feel a bit sorry for New Zealand. They are a wonderful team and hope they bounce back in style very soon.

Ronchi is a terrible, terrible WK. Makes Mushy look like Ian Healy.

Yes, thanks, but I envy you guys going to Sri Lanka. I wish it was us going instead. 3 months is too long.

A warm congrats to the Blackcaps for being gracious and polite throughout the tour.
I though they are a very good team and will do good in the next world cup as they have some exciting young players.
Good luck for your trip to Sri Lanka

but they seriously need to improve their fielding & bowling, it was very indisciplined, the last thing u would want as a kiwi is to see all those sloppy fieldings.
