We need pitches that suit our own bowling strength. This NZ side is among the weakest of the top 8 teams that will visit us in the near future. We will not get any spin advantage against sides like Pakistan Sri Lanka, India or England. We will get blasted out by South Africa and Australia. So ideally this is our chance to prepare a crumbling pitch and push for a win using spinners. A Test match draw where we again couldn't take 20 wickets counts for very little. Our bowlers need to take 20 wkts at least at home because when we travel they are not going to get pitches to their liking.
