New Zealand will face Pakistan in the first test match of the three game series at Dunedin. The two sides will come into the series having won one tournament each and with issues on their plate. The Pakistanis easily overcame the Kiwi challenge by winning the T20s whereas the ODIs were taken by the hosts New Zealand.

The problems that the two sides are widely varied in nature but in essence that would mean that there is not much to choose from between the two teams. Pakistan had a lot of controversies going against them, especially with the captain Younis Khan resigning and deciding not to tour New Zealand. Already Shoaib Malik has been blamed for the fiasco, and with Mohammad Yousuf, the newly instated captain, already being critical of Malik’s captaincy in 2007, the whole thing is nothing short of a television soap.

With the Kiwi conditions usually not suited to the teams from the sub-continent, it could get very interesting for the Pakistanis – offered 3 for a win by Ladbrokes – at Dunedin. Of course, a Kiwi side is always ready for a scrap, and with a fit-again Daniel Vettori at the top, they will go into the game as marginal favourites; Stan James offering 2.875 for their win.
Rains are a definite must in this part of the town, and with Kiwis not having hosted a game in the month of November for a long time, a rain-reduced game looks like a distinct possibility. Bet365 offers 3 for a draw and for now, looks like the most tempting option!
