New Zealand big favourites on their home pitches.

Guys like Taylor, Ryder, McCullum, Vettori will pile on the runs.

Pakistan's batting is woeful, just look at the warm up game.

I expect NZ to win 2-0 and Taylor man of the series.

I wonder if the spot fixing trial starting will over shadow the cricket, would be a shame if it did

McCullum for man of the series, can see him racking them up. Hoping Azhar gets his first test ton, he's had to play in tough conditions since his debut, probably not much easier in NZ

I reckon Azhar to come in at 3 with a maiden hundred. Hoping he does, thought he was unlucky to get stranded at the Oval against us last year after playing so well.

Quite difficult to predict a winner but I will say this series will end up in a draw.

Azhar certainly deserves a century beside his name as he has been playing in very difficult situation not only conditions. His temperament as a youngster is ideal in cricket and youngster should look upon him. After Dravid Azhar is the best temperamental player I have seen in Asia.

If some of you don't know Azhar is a good friend of Asad and Azhar's gloves are from Uzisports.

Actually conditions dont look that testing today in NZ, looks like a bit of a road! Enjoyed McCullum gloving it then looking at his hip. Think I'm gonna go for NZ Series, Pakistan far too inexperienced in the bowling department, can't depend on Gul all innings. Younis Khan bowling 16 overs in?! Thought they pick a spinner to bowl him not to throw the ball to a part timer from mid-off. The rest of Az's kit is from Asad as far as he told me too.

Pakistan's inexperienced bowling attack is still very talented and good and you seriously can't doubt them.

To unsettle the batsman, who knows he might take a wicket or two :D
