A bit of a sneaky tour here.
The last time we played Test matches in Sri Lanka was more notable for what happened off the park- it was Ross Taylor's last series as NZ captain (I think). The series was drawn and that was considered to be quite the achievement.
A good chance for us to bounce back from the WC blues.
I guess we're going to see a 15 man squad with an emphasis on spin?
Williamson (c)
Boult
de Grandhomme
Latham
Nicholls
Southee
Wagner
Waitling
Blundell/Seifert?
Santner
Sodhi
Young
Neesham
Raval
Taylor
Maybe a few players that could do without this tour- chiefly, Trent Boult?
