An erratic year is ending on a high with the series already wrapped up in New Zealand
There has been a definite end-of-term feel in Hamilton this week for an England squad who have already wrapped up the series following
There has been a feeling of progression in this England team, though, despite the fluctuating results, with the emergence of bowlers Gus Atkinson and Brydon Carse andWoakes may also feel he has proved a point. Despite his poor overseas record he finishes the winter with eight wickets from three games at an average of 35.62.
A workhorse in the mould of former Australia seamer Peter Siddle, Potts has 31 wickets at 29.22 so far in Test cricket and is a player whose heart and willingness to run in over after over has seen him gain the admiration of Stokes, his Durham team-mate. It promises to be an emotional week at Seddon Park, the 36-year-old’s home ground. England, aware that Southee – with four wickets at 61.50 in the first two Tests – has looked a spent force, will surely target him ruthlessly in his big farewell.
