Openers - Martin Guptill & Brendon McCullum (c)
The limited overs specialist and the captain himself will be able to provide the required foundation for the middle order. Tom Latham.
Middle order - Kane Williamson, Ross Taylor, Luke Ronchi (wk)
The Kiwi side has a dependable middle order lead by the 24-year-old Williamson and the experienced Taylor. The wicket-keeper batsman adds value lower down the order.
All-rounders - Grant Elliott, Corey Anderson
Having responded spectacularly to his recall into the squad, Elliott in all possibility will join Anderson in the playing XI. A lot will depend on the success of this pair than what it looks.
Bowlers - Daniel Vettori, Tim Southee, Kyle Mills and Trent Boult
Nathan McCullum should be left out as Vettori takes the responsibility of being the lead spinner. With a wide range of quicks to choose from, the think-tank might prefer the experience of Mills ahead of Adam Milne's pace.
Mitchell McClenaghan's economy rate should allow Boult to grab on to the last available spot as Tim Southee is a sure starter.
Reserves - Adam Milne, Mitchell McClenaghan, Nathan McCullum and Tom Latham.
