India Will face New Zealand Twenty20 International on 25th Feb and 27th Feb 09. Before the start of the Series, New Zealand middle-order batsman Ross Taylor said India should not lose sleep over the nature of the tracks here and the two Twenty20 Internationals would be enough for them to get used to the bounce.
Taylor further added "I think a lot of people have made a lot of the wickets the last time they were out here. I think the wickets have improved a lot since then. I don't think the Indians need to worry about green, seaming wickets,
It shows in our domestic form. The little dibbly-dobbly bowlers aren't having as much success as they had five or 10 years ago. That is good for New Zealand cricket that the bowlers are having to work a bit harder for their wickets and I am sure over the next month or so, the Indians will see how our conditions have changed," he said.
"There's a lot of cricket played. The idea is to adapt as quick as possible. There will be a little bit of getting used to for the Indians but our wickets aren't as bouncy as Australia," he said.
"I am sure after the first two Twenty20 games, they would have got used to the bounce and in the nets as well. That won't be a factor come the first one-dayer. It will be interesting to see how it goes," he said.
At the end Taylor "India would be the best team going around in all forms of the game at the moment and it is exciting for us to play against them and see where we really are on our home turf. Hopefully, we will have some success. But I am sure the New Zealand public will have a good series to watch,"
