New Zealand performance in this edition of the world cup was an aberration

New Zealand    performance in this edition of the world cup was an aberration.
They are a mediocre  team and has always been one . The had all the advantages of playing on home grounds with pitches prepared especially for them.
West Indies could  have beaten them except  for the stupidity of the  West Indies coaches .
The west indies were down 4 wickets but were 30 runs ahead at that point. All they had to do was play safe and preserve their  wickets  and ignore the asking run  rate , waiting for the  final 15 overs to blast away .
What happened . ?  Gayle , Sammy . Russel  just kept blasting away like drunken sailors , giving their wickets away.  The small ground was  to  the advantage of  the West indies but the were playing  20 20 cricket .
I blame the coach and management  for that,

Silly post .  The Kiwis were  playing inspired cricket.

Hmmm coulda woulda if only

[/quote] In addition the West Indies had the batting power play pending and combined with  the small ground , there was no way that they  should have lost
The blame lies with team macro  management.

Richie Richardson and stuart Williams did NOT unnastan the Nuances ?  :-\
