I have really enjoyed the recent ODI series against the West Indies and India - because the Black Caps have played so brilliantly and have been winning.

However, with actual and suspected cases of match fixing swirling around (particularly in India) it does make me wonder how the world's top-ranked ODI team and the reigning world champions can come here and not win one out of five ODI games, against the eighth-ranked ODI side.

Not a Conspiracy Theorist and all this is mainly tongue-in-cheek - but as I said, it made me wonder.
