I'm more saying our bowlers our better than your bowlers aren't going to do well against our batsman. Our bowlers did better in both Australia and England and are very well suited to these conditions.

I actually watched every minute of India in England and India in Australia and I believe Zaheer was excellent in England and then Sreesanth was probably better than RP. Though RP was solid throughout he did get a bit lucky at times.

In Australia Ishant was immensely unlucky a lot of the time, unluckiest bowler I had seen there since Malinga.Then Pathan was probably the next most dangerous looking throughout.

The Indian attack needs a few more years to really find its feet IMO. By no means a poor attack and certainly up there but they aren't as good as SA or Australia yet. And at home NZ (and a full strength England) are better too.
indian attack is by far the best allround attack in the world.southafrica do not have
match winning spinners and australia do not have a bowling attack as of now
and newzealand attack is as good as zimbabwe

i have watched every new zealand match and i know how weak their batting is
and how poor their bowling is they struggled against bangladesh
got hammered against a not so deadly australia.and drawn a series against a
weak westindies at home.fact is after bond newzealnd do not have a attack capable of taking 20 wickets unless they are playing on green tracks and batsman they cannot
play anything above 140km except ross taylor who has potential to be worlds best batsman oneday.
That is quite untrue, Jesse Ryder looks perfectly at ease against the fastest of bowling. The only problem is he's a lazy bugger who gets out to silly shots.

I'm also pretty skeptic that you've watched every New Zealand match. The West Indies were outplayed in both matches by NZ, saved by the rain once and the flatness of the track in the other. We pushed Australia to a greater extent than expected winning several sessions (though neither match). And Bangladesh at home are beginning to get pretty hard, though we beat them anyway.

Our openers are nothing to write home about, true. However our middle order of Flynn, Taylor and Ryder looks quite good.

What is the height of RP Singh btw?

(Going to ignore the rest of your post)
Didn't think he was much taller than Southee. Not that height is necessarily an advantage for a swing bowler, it tends to make it difficult to get lbws. The best swing bowler in the world is 5ft10 and the best ever was 5ft9.

Haha, once you say that everyone knows its the opposite.
All you show is that you have knowledge of the results, and the results alone.

And now you have cleared it up for the remaining 1% of people who didn't realise you had an extreme Indian bias.

Yeah agreed, too much height can hinder a swing bowler IMO.

Just wondered how much he knew about Southee.

biased indian

still think if every one is fit ours will be more balanced attack than the kiwis ..but the whole test series will depend on how our batsmen will turn up to bat ..

against australia in the first the pitch was a little helpful so it seems like the match was close
but in truth there was no hope for newzealand in first test as thier batting cannot
follow up the good work done by their bowling and at adelaide they were up to a good start
on aflat track but collapsed ,this performance against a atbest good side is worse
tha n past drubings.if bangladesh are hard at home that says much about nz cricket.

the guy was saying southee was more naturally talented than rp singh it was nothing to do with swing bowling.
