Veteran fast bowler Tim Southee has resigned as New Zealand’s Test captain following the team’s 2-0 whitewash in a recent Test series against Sri Lanka. The decision came just days after the defeat, with Southee stating that his resignation was made in the team’s best interest. Having taken over the captaincy from Kane Williamson in December 2??022, Southee led the Blackcaps in 14 Test matches but felt it was time for a change in leadership after the challenging series loss.

Tim Southee’s career and captaincy performance

Southee, one of New Zealand’s most accomplished pacemen, has had an illustrious career since his Test debut in 2008. Over 102 Test matches, he has claimed an impressive 382 wickets. However, during his 14 matches as captain, Southee struggled to maintain his usual standards, taking 35 wickets at an average of 38.60, significantly higher than his career average of 28.99. His performance in Sri Lanka was?? particularly underwhelming, with only two wickets in 49 overs across the two matches, highlighting the strain of leading the team while managing his own form??.

New captain to lead New Zealand against India

Opening batter Tom Latham has been named the new Test captain and will lead New Zealand in their upcoming three-match series against India, beginning on October 16. Latham, who previously captained the Blackcaps in nine Tests between 2020 and 2022, returns to the leadership role as New Zealand, the inaugural World Test Championship (WTC) winners, currently sit sixth in the WTC standings. The series against table-topping India will take place in Bengaluru, Pune, and Mumbai, offering Latham a significant challenge in his first a?ssignment as full-time captain.

Southee’s reflections on stepping down

Reflecting on his decision to step down, Southee emphasized his deep connection to the Test format and the privilege of leading his country. “Captaining the BLACKCAPS in a format that’s so special to me has been an absolute honour and privilege. I’ve always tried to put the team first throughout my career, and I believe this decision is the best for the team,” Southee was quoted as saying by India Today.

Southee further expressed his desire to focus on improving his on-field perform?ances and returning to his best form, which he believes will best serve the team moving forward. He also voiced his commitment to supporting his teammates, particularly the younger bowlers emerging on the international ?stage. Southee extended his well-wishes to Latham, expressing confidence in Latham’s leadership and offering his support throughout the transition.

“I believe the way I can best serve the team moving forward is focusing on my performances on the field and getting back to my best, to continue taking wickets and helping New Zealand win Test matches. I will, as I have always done, continue to support my teammates, especially the exciting young bowlers making their way on the international stage. I wish Tom all the best in the role and he knows I’ll be there to support him on his journey, as he has done for me over the years,” Southee concluded.

New Zealand Cricket has strategically bolstered their preparations for an upcoming subcontinent tour by recruiting two seasoned coaches: former India batting coach Vikram Rathour and ex-Sri Lanka spinner Rangana Herath. This move comes as New Zealand g?ears up for a series of high-stakes Test matches in the Indian subcontinent.

Roles and responsibilities: Afghanistan Test and beyond

Rathour’s role will be concentrated on the one-off Test against Afghanistan, set to commence on September 9. On the other hand, Herath’s expertise will be fully utilized during New Zealand’s two-match Test series against Sri Lanka. Both coaches have already integrated into the New Zealand squad currently based in Greater Noida, where they are preparing to face Afghanistan at the Greater Noida Sports Complex Ground.

Impact of the appointments for New Zealand

New Zealand head coach Gary Stead expressed optimism about these strategic additions, emphasizing the immense value they bring. “We’re thrilled to have Rangana and Vikram join our Test group. Both men are held in high regard in the world of cricket and I know our players are really looking forward to the opportunity to learn from them,” Stead said in a statement released by New Z??ea??land Cricket.

He stressed that their deep knowledge of subcontinental conditions would be pivotal in refining the Blackcaps’ game plan for the challenges ahead. Stead highlighted the specific benefits Herath will bring to the team, particularly for New Zealand’s trio of left-arm orthodox spinners – Ajaz Patel, Mitchell Santner and Rachin Ravindra.

“For our three left-arm orthodox spinners in particular, Ajaz, Mitch and Rachin, having the chance to work with Rangana across three Tests on the sub-continent will be hugely beneficial. Rangana’s experience, especially his success at Galle, where he has taken over 100 Test wickets, will be incredibly valuable as we prepare for the Sri Lanka series,” Stead concluded

Upcoming challenges and Afghanistan’s coaching strategy

Following the one-off Test against Afghanistan, New Zealand will embark on a two-match Test series in Sri Lanka before returning to India for a three-match Test series. Rathour, who played six Tests for India in the late 1990s and later served as a selector and batting coach, recently contributed to India’s success in the T20 World Cup 2024 under head coach Rahul Dravid.

In a related development, the Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) has also earlier appointed R Sridhar as an assistant coach for their upcoming series against New Zealand and South Africa. Sridhar, who served as India’s fielding coach from 2014 to 2021 under Ravi Shastri, brings a wealth of experience to Afghanistan’s coaching setup.

As New Zealand gear up for an intense cricketing season, openers Devon Conway and Finn Allen have made significant decisions regarding their central contracts with New Zealand Cricket (NZC). Conway, at 33, has opted for a casual contrac?t, while the 25-year-old Allen has declined a central contract to focus more on franchise cricket opportunities.

Devon Conway discloses the chief reason

Conway, selected for New Zealand’s overseas Tests against Afghanistan and Sri Lanka, has pledged his commitment to all international fixtures over the next 12 months, with the exception of the white-ball series against Sri Lanka in January. Despite moving away from a central contract, Conway has expressed his dedication to representing New Zealand, particularly in crucial tournaments like the ICC World Test Championship and the Champions Trophy in Pakistan.

“Firstly, I’d like to thank New Zealand Cricket for their support through this process. The decision to move away from a central playing contract isn’t one I’ve taken lightly, but I believe it is the best for me and my family at this present time,” Conway said on? a video released by the ?Blackcaps on X.

Addressing his decision, Conway thanked NZC for its support and cited family considerations as a key reason for opting for a casual contract. He emphasized that playing for the Blackcaps remains the pinnacle of his career and that he remains passionate about contributing to New Zealand’s success in international cricket.

“Playing for the Blackcaps is still the pinnacle for me and I’m hugely passionate about representing New Zealand and winning games of international cricket. I’m excited to be part of the upcoming Test squads for an important period in the ICC World Test Championship cycle and am looking forward to being involved in the ICC Champions Trophy in Pakistan next February if selected,” Conway concluded.

New Zealand cricket CEO’s perspective on Conway’s decision

Trent Boult and Martin Guptill had previously moved away from national contracts in 2022 to pursue franchise opportunities, with Kane Williamson doing so earlier this year. NZC CEO Scott Weenink acknowledged Conway’s commitment to the national team and emphasized the importance of flexibility in the current cricketing environment.  Weenink expressed his satisfaction with Conway’s decision to continue contributing to the Blackcaps through a casual contract, highlighting the player’s quality and importance to the team.

“We’re delighted with Devon’s decision to commit to the Blackcaps �?he’s a quality player who’s made a strong contribution to the team over the past few years. In the current environment it’s important to have flexibility in our system to navigate some of the challenges posed by franchise cricket �?and this is another example of how we’re working hard to retain our best players,” Weenink was?? quoted as saying by the Hindustan Times.

“Playing for the BLACKCAPS has always been the biggest achievement in my playing career.

Although it has been a while since my last appearance, I never gave up hope that I might be able to return off the back of my franchise T20 form. With the announcement of the BLACKCAPS squad for the T20 World Cup now is the perfect time to close that chapter officially,” Munro was quoted as saying to NZC.

New Zealand are set to lock horns with Australia in the first Test o??f the two-match series, starting from Thursday (February 29).

New Zealand have not beaten Australia in a Test match since 2011 and the Blackcaps head coach Gary Stead sees the upcoming series as an opportunity for the home team, who currently placed at the top in ICC World Test Championship standings, to correct the anomaly against the reigning champio??ns.

“We don’t play Australia that often, which is strange considering that they’re just across the Tasman there,” sai?d Stead while addressing the reporters in Wellington on Wednesday.

“But, look, they always set the benchmark and are current world Test champions and they are that for a reason. They’re a very good side. But that’s our opportunity. And that’s for us to go out and I guess show our wares and we’re certainly looking forward to the challenge that is ahead.”

NZ vs AUS 2024, 1st Test:

• Start date and Time: February 29; 10:00 pm GMT (Feb 28) / 3:30 am IST/ 11:00 am local
• Venue: Basin Reserve, Wellington

Basin Reserve Pitch Report:

The Basin Reserve pitch in Wellington is ??adorned with a lush green cover for the upcoming fixture. This green hue is expected to provide substantial assistance to the seam bowlers from both teams, posing significant challenges for the side batting first. With a track record of producing results in 43 out of the 67 Tests it has hosted, the venue has favoured teams bowling first, with 29 of those 43 victories achieved by the bowling side.

Bowlers taking the initial opportunity to bowl on this pitch are poised to capitalize on the moisture content and the presence of fresh green grass, enhancing their eff??ectiveness in exploiting the conditions to their advantage.

The cricketing world was treated to a breathtaking spectacle at the University Oval as New Zealand and Pakistan clashed in the third T20I of the five-match series. New Zealand, winning the toss and opting to bat, set the stage for a thrilling encounter where Finn Allen emerged as the star of the show. His explosiv??e innings left spectators in awe as he demolished th?e Pakistan bowling attack, sending the ball all over the park.

Finn Allen’s blazing ton

New Zealand’s batting prowess was on full display as they posted an imposing total of 224/7 in their allotted 20 overs. However, it was Allen who stole the spotlight with an extraordinary innings, amassing 137 runs off just 62 balls. The opening batter’s innings included an incredible five fours and a record-breaking 16 sixes, leaving the Pakistan bowlers helpless. Tim Seifert and Glenn Phillips also played crucial roles, con?tributing valuable runs to help set a challenging target for the visitors.

Several record-breaking feats

During his blazing ton, Allen achieved numerous feats. He equaled Hazratullah Zazai‘s record for the most sixes in an innings in T20Is. Moreover, his 137 became the highest individual score for a New Zealand batter in T20Is. Allen also broke the record for the most sixes in an innings for a New Zealand batter and his innings went down in the record books as the third-highest score by an opener in T20Is.

Valiant effort by Babar Azam

In response, Pakistan fought valiantly, with Babar Azam leading the charge with a stellar knock of 58 runs off 37 balls. However, the New Zealand bowlers, spearheaded by Tim Southee, Lockie Ferguson, and Mitchell Santner, picked up crucial wickets at regular intervals, ensuring that Pakistan fell short, managing only 179/7 in their 20 overs.

Player of the Match

Allen was rightfully awarded the Player of the Match for his exceptional batting display, which not only secured the victory in the third T20I but also played a pivotal role in New Zealand’s series-sealing triumph.

Unassailable lead

With three consecutive victories, New Zealand has now taken an unassailable lead in the T20I series. As the cricketing action moves to Hagley Oval for the next match scheduled on Friday, January 19, Pakistan will be eager to salvage pride in the remaining fixtures and potentially disrupt New Zealand’s dominant run.

Here’s how Twitter reacted:
