Our review identified changes needed to be made and, in Stephen, we have a coach who has a reputation for demanding the highest standards.
In hindsight the Maxwell powerplayer selection wasn't ideal, at least I have Boult though when many would've gone for Southee.

Well looks like we're going to have to use a 4th bowler.

Very arrogant IMO. Clarke should not have come back against new zealand who are arguably (and making a strong claim) of being the best odi side in the world. Should have gone in with the same side that played England. Still might have blown us off the park mind but probably not as idiotic as this.
It also meant Smith had to bat at 5 and Clarke 4. It's ridiculous, why unsettle a team that's been dominating like we have?

If Southee hadnt gone for like 40 off his first two overs his stats for this game would actually be pretty good
