    You'll have to wear it unfortunately as the numbers don't lie.

    NZ fielded 8 players with less than 15 Test caps which has never happened since the Baby Blacks and never happens, as opposed to Australia's 2. NZ fielded a side with 400 less Test caps than their World Cup winning side.

    Of course countries blood and rest players, especially in dead rubbers of a comp they've already won.

    Australia had to win.
