Nagpur: New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson is aware of spin-friendly conditions in India but added Kiwis are a dangerous side when they take to the field.
“We certainly are expecting spin to pay a big part in this tournament. I suppose judging by the warm-up games in Mumbai (against England and Sri Lanka), they had a bit for the seamers and it swung a little bit. They were very good surfaces but from what cricket we have seen here in Nagpur, spin looks likely to play a big part. It’s important that we adjust our game plans accordingly,” Williamson said.
The Kiwis will observe a minute silence after the anthems and will sport red armbands during the match to honour Blackcaps legend Martin Crowe, who passed away.
