When Indian bowlers missed we jumped all over it: NZ batting coach

Rediff.com23 Sep 2016

New Zealand batting coach Craig McMillan said the key to the unbeaten partnership between Kane Williamson and Tom Latham was rotation of strike as the two batsmen frustrated the Indian bowling attack with their 117-run stand for the second wicket in Kanpur on Friday.

They stuck to their game plans and when the Indian bowlers missed we jumped all over it. "I thought the way they rotated the strike with that left and right-hand combination throughout the partnership was crucial," McMillan said at the press conference after the second day's play at the Green Park.
