Don’t know about 3-0 to India in the ODI’s. Think it would be a pretty even series with India probably taking it 2-1. Also unlikely NZ opening partnership to get to 50 let alone 100.
More so worried about our bowling to be fair. Southee isn’t really all that much of a wicket taker. In ODI’s him and Santner are handy containment bowlers while Boult and Fergs of late have been the aggressors. Guptill and Munro have fallen off a cliff in the last couple years. Guptill from top 3 or 4 opening bats in the world to a fairly pedestrian top order player - our best option but needs a good series. Munro lives and dies by his aggression but has mostly died in recent memory. I don’t think it’s long before one of them is shut out to give Phillips or Seifert an extended go. At this time I’d probably chuck Worker in for Munro for a variety in 5th choice bowling options to back up with Neesham/CDG.

Dont undermine us on home turf. Munro's gone for good so all we need is guptill to go well
