Kane Williamson leaves after being dismissed by James Pattinson of Australia on day two. Photo: Getty ImagesFormer Black Caps captain Brendon McCullum believes current skipper Kane Williamson has lost some of his love of captaincy. McCullum questioned some of Williamson's tactics during the Black Caps' fielding effort against Australia yesterday, especially when Williamson turned to Tom Blundell to bowl, calling that particular decision "staggering" and arguing that the Black Caps "just rolled over". Today, McCullum expanded on his critique of Williamson's captaincy, believing his successor as captain isn't enjoying the role as much as prior years. McCullum noted that he believes Williamson has done a "magnificent job" in his 30 tests as captain, but stood by his criticism of yesterday's tactics.
