New Zealand is gearing up for a packed few months featuring six Test matches, including a challenging three-match series against India. Senior batter Kane Williamson stresses the importance of adjusting to subcontinental conditions, which will be crucial for their success.
The tour kicks off with a solitary Test against Afghanistan on Monday, followed by a two-Test series in Sri Lanka, and culminates in India for three Tests. These matches form a significant part of their World Test Championships calendar.
Williamson acknowledges the tough challenge ahead, emphasizing the value of these games in the Test Championship. He notes the need for the team to grow and adapt, especially with New Zealand's historically poor record in the subcontinent. The former skipper also anticipates spinners to dominate in the subcontinental conditions.
