New Zealand is one of the strongest contenders for winning the World Cup next year and facing them in their own backyard will be a tough challenge for the Indian side. Team India will face the Kiwis in a five-match ODI series in February next year.
The strong Indian batting line-up will have its work cut out against a formidable New Zealand pace attack. Tim Southee and Trent Boult can demolish any batting side in the World and it will be a litmus test for the experienced Indian batsmen.
The conditions in New Zealand will be somewhat similar to those in England, thus making this series even more vital.
