Injured Black Caps all-rounder Scott Styris is refusing to blame poor coaching on New Zealand's embarrassing 4-0 series loss to Bangladesh in Dhaka.

There have been calls to sack coach Mark Greatbatch following the tour.

The Black Caps arrived home late last night.

Styris says it's not Greatbatch's fault the players were dismissed so cheaply throughout the tournament.

Styris says his teammates just played some incredibly dumb cricket.

He says the players all need to ask themselves what the hell is going on.
