Watch NZ vs WI Test Series Live: Streaming and TV Details Revealed!

Christchurch:

New Zealand will finally begin their campaign in the new World Test Championship (WTC) cycle, having last played the format in July against Zimbabwe in a two-match series, which didn’t form part of the championship. New Zealand have been treading well in the longest format in the last 12 months or so, but will be disappointed with their performances since winning the inaugural edition of the championship.

New Zealand achieved the high of winning 3-0 against India away but were brought to the ground at home by England, having lost the series 1-2 last year. And, given that the Black Caps are scheduled to tour England and Australia in the new cycle, it won’t be an easy journey for New Zealand but as they say, half begun is half the job done and Tom Latham and Co will be keen to start well against the West Indies, who have been fidgety in Test cricket of late.

The West Indies beat Australia away in a day-night Test at the Gabba but were brutally whitewashed at home by the same team. The West Indies lost 0-2 to India but did put up fight in the second Test in Delhi and made the hosts bat second, while taking the game to Day 5. However, New Zealand will be another beast to counter for Roston Chase and Co, and their first challenge and target will be to open their account in the WTC 2025-27 cycle as on their home soil, the Black Caps are difficult to tame.
