#2 Mike Hesson
Mike Hesson is one of the best coaches the New Zealand side has had. He found the side in mediocrity and rose them to new levels.
Trending
It was his suggestion of making McCullum the captain that played rich dividends for the side eventually getting them to a near World Cup win in 2015.
He was the coach back when India was thrashed in New Zealand at 2014. No wonder that all his inputs played a huge role in that series win. Undoubtedly, the former series winning coach's absence had played a huge role in the series loss this time around.
The 44-year-old had a contract ending only after the World Cup 2019 but due to family commitments, he decided to bring an abrupt end to his contract. Had he stayed a little longer, the Kiwis might have won the series just like they did back in 2014, and the previous World Cup runner-ups might have even won their first ever World Cup.
