New Zealanders in England, 1965

Not for the first time in these early weeks of their tour New Zealand gave a feeble batting display, but effected a praiseworthy recovery at the second attempt.

The match followed the same pattern as the first Test, New Zealand collapsing, recovering, but still being beaten rather easily.

This match was a triumph for Surrey in the persons of John Edrich and Barrington.

Between January 22 and July 13, less than six months, New Zealand took part in thirteen Test Matches

This was a disappointing struggle because both sides generally adopted a negative policy

Everything else in this match was overshadowed by the remarkable Test debut of Taylor for New Zealand

At Bombay, March 12, 13, 14, 15

India won by seven wickets, thanks to the off-spin bowling of Venkataraghavan who exploited a parched pitch and took twelve wickets for 152 runs

At Rawalpindi, March 27, 28, 30
