What sort of pitches do you reckon your guys will have lined up for the series? Hopefully not like that last series against England. (which was the last cricket I saw broadcast from the Caribbean)

To be honest i don't even think our players know what pitches they will get!!
, in Guyana it will be spinning like mad, in Barbados it should be good for pace and in St Lucia it's usually decent for batting but the ball can bounce a bit, i'd imagine it will be a mixed bag really, i'd like to think the spinning tracks would be to our advantage though.

Yeah Dan is good and all but we've got Bishoo and Sunil Narine!!
, plus the fact that our players have faced nothing but spin over the last year could help our case aswell.

How many tests is it Windie - better be 3 tests!
I actually think the Windies and NZ should play each other in 4 test match series since we are so close on the rankings.

Can't agree with that.
2nd Test: New Zealand v West Indies at Napier, Dec 19-23, 2008 | Cricket Scorecard | ESPN Cricinfo
Three members of NZ's XI for that match played our last Test in Hobart. To be fair, Vettori would have played if fit, so that makes four. Still a pretty different side.
If NZ were to play 2 spinners, I'd much rather Todd Astle be given a game than have to see Jeets bowl again...
Back on-topic, I'm not sure how much he opened (Cricinfo mentions him doing it for NSW, but batted middle order in tests), but Archie Jackson was an incredible teenage batsman.
Was taken far too young, some called him the second coming of Trumper, others thought he would have rivalled Bradman if his health hadn't deteriorated.

I think it's three but i'm not sure as we only played two against Pak, if i had my way i'd make WI vs NZ a regular thing and try and get a little rivalry going!!..
, especially as NZ don't seem to play much test cricket these days.
