The AUS vs NZ series continues with the two-match Test series after the three-match T20I series. The first test will be played in Wellington from February 29 to March 4. The match starts at 3:30 am IST.

New Zealand tops the WTC points table after their Test series victory against Australia. The Kiwis whitewashed the Proteas 2-0 heading into this test series.

Tim Southee will lead the Kiwis in the Test series. He will have his key player, Kane Williamson, back. However, wicketkeeper opener Devon Conway has been ruled out of the first Test due to a thumb injury.

Daryl Mitchell also returns to the Test squad after fully recovering from his foot injury. He missed the South Africa Test series followed by the Australia T20I series. Will Young is expected to take Conway’s place in the lineup.

Southee will lead the bowling attack with Matt Henry, William ORourke and Scott Kuggeleijn. Or Rourke and Kuggeleijn have played just one Test match each.

Mitchell Santner is the lateral spinning specialist. Left-arm Kiwi pacer Neil Wagner announced his international retirement ahead of this Test series.

Australia will be directed by Pat Cummins. The Australians cleanly swept the Kiwis in the T20I series under Mitchell Marsh heading into this series. They occupy third place in the WTC points table. The Australians swept Pakistan and drew a Test series against the West Indies before this series.

Cummins has all its experienced players back in the Test side. David Warner announced his retirement from Test cricket after the series against Pakistan. He retired from ODI cricket after the World Cup and only plays T20I cricket.

Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, Scott Boland and Nathan Lyon form the bowling core. Steve Smith’s experiment at the top after Warner’s withdrawal has not produced results so far.
