In boxing it is said that the big guy will always beat the small guy. Luckily that is not true of all sports (actually, it’s not even true in boxing, but that’s a convenient belief), or a small country with limited resources where cricket is not even the most important sport would not be the World champions in Test cricket. India, 11 times larger in area than New Zealand, with GDP 13 times greater (World Bank figures, 2019) and population 260 times more, also have the richest cricket board in the world and a larger pool to choose from. The World Test Championship (WTC) was a reminder that whatever your strengths outside the field, only 11 players can play, and New Zealand’s 11 were better than India’s on those rain-affected days.
