I'm not an expert on these things but why couldn't have Wellington have been the 3rd ODI and Hamilton 2nd? Presuming that is because GnR was confirmed after the CH scheduling...but NZC has to be better than scheduling an important game at a ground not fit to hold water, rather than just presume it won't rain. Unfortunately they're not.

Actually I see Hamilton is a day game anyway on the weekend.
So, my point isn't very valid.
If they wanted to avoid Napier, they could have. If they thought it's drainage wasn't up to intl standard.

quality turn of phrase.Proves my point. Teams are strong at home, but very weak away. I remember New Zealand toured Australia last month, and they lost all the games. Now, when Australia tours New Zealand, the results are reversed. However, in ODI Cricket, Australia are one of the few teams that can win series away from home all over the world. They are ranked #1 for a reason, and that too a long time. Test Cricket you could say all teams struggle away from home now. I know South African won a test series in Australia not so long ago, but conditions ain't much different to theirs at home. The key question is can i.e. India win a test series in i.e. New Zealand, and Australia win a test series in i.e. India.
You've based that off one ODI they lost by 6 runs?

Not much interest on CW for NZ/Aus matches anymore it seems. Meanwhile India vs England ODIs and T20s get an incredible amount of interest, Must be a sign of the times.
Australia look up for today and NZ not playing Sodhi is thoroughly depressing. As Doull said, if he's not going to get a game on his home ground where he won the MOTM vs. Australia last year, he'll never get one in NZ.
