1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,600
Speaker 1: It's been quite quite the arting in India, hasn't it?

2
00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:05,320
Speaker 1: Series whitewash, three Tests, three victories, first time we have

3
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:10,600
Speaker 1: ever done at magic moment. Yeah, this is the greatest

4
00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:14,200
Speaker 1: Test series when in New Zealand Test cricket history. I

5
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:16,480
Speaker 1: think it's probably fair we won by twenty five Gary

6
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:17,760
Speaker 1: Steeds with us morning mate.

7
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:18,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, hi, Mike.

8
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:20,480
Speaker 1: Of all the things you've done, where's it sit?

9
00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:27,800
Speaker 2: Probably right up there? Look, I think winning in India

10
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:34,159
Speaker 2: is incredibly special just one Test, but win three in

11
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:37,479
Speaker 2: a row over here is Yeah, it's really amazing. And

12
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:40,519
Speaker 2: I said to the guys today, I think for me anyway,

13
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 2: it's right up there with winning the World TIS Championship.

14
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:46,519
Speaker 1: Take us through how it happens. So first time you

15
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:49,560
Speaker 1: think this is great, weren't expecting it maybe, but good

16
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 1: on us, and then it sort of starts to build

17
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:53,599
Speaker 1: from there. Did have that feel about it?

18
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 2: Yeah? Look, I mean we knew that after the first

19
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 2: Test match, which probably favored us in terms of the

20
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 2: pitch conditions, and that a little bit more than we're

21
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 2: expecting that it was always going to be tough after that,

22
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:13,760
Speaker 2: and they produced a couple of turners in Pune and

23
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 2: then in Mumbai, and I guess that's the one thing

24
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 2: that sort of makes you most proud is the way

25
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,040
Speaker 2: that we've adapted to beat them sort of at their

26
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 2: own game. And that's yeah, particularly pleasing I think as

27
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:27,839
Speaker 2: a coach anyway, are.

28
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 1: They gracious and defeat the Indians so they come up

29
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 1: to you and go, can't believe it? Well done?

30
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,399
Speaker 2: Yeah? They were, They were very gracious. I think when

31
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 2: you play over here, it's hard if you haven't been

32
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 2: here to really understand. I guess the magnitude of the

33
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:46,680
Speaker 2: crowd as well, and the noise that they make, and

34
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 2: you always talk about silencing the crowd if you can,

35
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 2: and if you know, if you've done that, you're in

36
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 2: a good position. And they certainly ride the highs and

37
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 2: lows with their team.

38
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: Who is there hell to pay for the Indian team

39
00:01:58,240 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 1: from the locals and the press?

40
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 2: Ah? Yeah, I imagine there is. There's always pressure, I

41
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,080
Speaker 2: think on if they're not if they're not winning, because

42
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 2: they're expected to perform and win all the time. So

43
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,079
Speaker 2: that's certainly nice of being in our shoes.

44
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 1: Anyway, have you got something you can go on with now?

45
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 1: I mean, is this a thing or was this a

46
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 1: moment in time do you reckon?

47
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 2: Oh look, I mean every test you go into or

48
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 2: every every series you play, you go in with the

49
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:28,960
Speaker 2: highest of hopes and hoping that you can play your

50
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 2: best cricket. And I guess that's the one thing that's

51
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 2: most pleasing is I think the cricket that we've played

52
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:37,919
Speaker 2: has been outstanding and there's been contributions from from everyone

53
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:43,400
Speaker 2: right throughout the whole team throughout the series. So delighted

54
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 2: for the guys. And I guess all the hard work

55
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 2: that you do put in that it's nice for it

56
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:49,520
Speaker 2: to pay off like this.

57
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:51,520
Speaker 1: I reckon go well with it, might appreciate it. Gary

58
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:53,799
Speaker 1: Steed out of India this morning, heading off of Force

59
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 1: to Sri Lanka. The headline in the Sitting Morning Hero,

60
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 1: which doesn't normally come in New Zealand cricket doesn't involve

61
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 1: Australian It's just a bunch of keywis taking on the world,

62
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 1: which was a nice headline. For more from the Mic
