BOUNCING BACK ISN’T A TERM WE USE: WILLIAMSON ON RECOVERY

Wellington, Feb. 24: The perfect execution of plans against India has pleased New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson but he refused to term his team’s 10-wicket win as “bouncing back” from their 0-3 debacle against Australia.

New Zealand came into the series after their nightmare in Australia and put up a splendid performance to outclass India in just over three days.

“Bouncing back isn’t a term that we use within our group. You can get carried away thinking about results (especially) when you have a number of poor ones and sometimes the want (urge) for a good one can be a distraction towards getting (achieving) it,” Williamson said.
