Not a good start to Grant Bradburns coaching career as an international coach, losing both 20/20s so far.
If anything, coaching Pakistan to wins over the Black Caps is a great audition after recent comments in NZ Cricket about having a specialist limited overs coach.

Also, Bradburn coached Scotland for 4 years, including at a world cup. So, not the start of his career as an international coach.
That took me down a wikipedia rabbit hole, where from a quick perusal of when they last won stuff - I have concluded that Northern Districts have been crap since he left, apart from in T20.

He's coaching Pakistan!
Outside of Chapman, the 2nd, 3rd and 4th-string players haven't taken their chances so far. Some are clearly not up to it. Even some of the regulars haven't fronted.
As a side note, there is a big Canterbury flavour in the NZ XI.
Yep stuffed my wording up doing it posting on my phone in an express mode.

ND has always lost so many multiple format players to the NZ team that they seldom have those players available when needed in red ball cricket. We saw what impact Santner had in some games.
Watling to the rescue next season.

That was a fantastic chase to watch. Every over the other side took back control.

Well done Neesham as well, Pak need 15 of the last over. Gets tonked for 10 off first 3 deliveries, then 3 dot balls including 2 wickets..nerves of steel
