Blackcaps at Arms - A wonderful Team

We don't need to dwell on this years triumphs, when we have a summer of cricket in 2019 to contend with.

First up a 5 match ODI series versus India.  Both sides are on a roll so should make for  a great and close series.  India are 2nd on ICC Rankings and Blackcaps are 3rd.

Matches are scheduled for the following:

1st ODI  23/1  at McLean Park
2nd ODI 26/1 at Bay Oval
3rd ODI 28/1 also at Bay Oval
4th ODI  31/1 at Seddon Park
5th ODI  3/2 at Westpac


Later in February Bangladesh play 3 ODI's and 3 tests.  I'm expecting big things now we have consistent performances and frankly I think Bangladesh will be lesser performed than Sri Lanka.

ODI's (Bangladesh are 7th on the rankings)

1st ODI  13/2 at McLean Park
2nd ODI  16/2  at Hagley Oval
3rd ODI  20/2  at University Oval

3 Tests

1st Test  28/2 at Seddon Park
2nd Test  8/3  at Basin Reserve
3rd Test  16/3 at Hagley Oval.

Mouth watering prospects.  Remember our top 5 batsmen are combined averages of each of their last 25 innings at 49.7 (Lowest is Raval on 40 and highest is Latham on 56.9)
