That's the positive that New Zealand's brains trust are clutching to, after a 4-1 series humbling by India. I think that'll be the best part that came out of this series, it was a very tough series.

The tough experiences continue with three Twenty20s against India this week, before Bangladesh arrive for the final ODI hit-outs next week.
