Negative view. In the past there weren't big scores in the NCL. If there suddenly are now that shows that something has changed. Yes the pressure will be higher and the bowling better quality in Test matches. Nobody denies that, and not every player who succeeds in NCL will succeed in tests. But runs are being scored at a rate that they have never been before, it can only result in an improved showing by the national team's batsmen, the only question that remains is by how much.
