Very cool to come out with a draw like that in Kanpur: Jamieson
Earlier, Jamieson shared his thoughts on the first Test match against India where the Kiwis, despite having their backs against the wall, managed to draw the game on the final day with one wicket remaining.
"It was an awesome Test. Pretty nail-biting going down to the last wicket in the dying minutes of daylight we had. Very cool to come out with a draw like that. In Test cricket, we see a lot of victories within day three or four but to go down till the end on day five and have a thrilling draw at the end was pretty cool," said Jamieson in a video interview by New Zealand Cricket (NZC).
“I hadn’t played anything in this part of the world, especially red-ball cricket. So, trying to learn and see how my game will go in these conditions. I think that’s the beauty of Test cricket, it challenges you to play yourself all around the world. I have had limited experiences overseas and certainly hope through the course of my career that challenges like that. Those are the sort of things that make you drive and strive to get better and take on these challenges and learn from them," he added.
