New Zealand's (NZ) historic 3-0 series whitewash against India has been met with high praise, particularly for the leadership of new captain Tom Latham. Former New Zealand fast bowler Shane Bond commended Latham's captaincy, crediting both his individual performance and the foundation laid by former captain Tim Southee. "Great start to your captaincy reign! I think you've got to pay some credit to Tim Southee, who was magnanimous enough to step down and say, 'look, it's someone else's time', and Tom would have reaped the rewards of a lot of the work that Tim's done over the last few years. But I know Latham's a very good captain, good man, and good leader. I thought the innings he played in the Pune Test was the best innings I've seen him play, leading from the front," Bond said, as quoted by ESPNcricinfo.
