I think it will be a tight match. Having lost the ODI series to a team that we Bangla-washed twice is not going to give any moral boost to the Indian team. If anything, our boys will probably get some comfort from this, although NZ won the series in their own back yard.
Nevertheless, SL series is in the past and I hope the team management and the captain did enough to prepare the boys mentally. It's a new day, a new competition and new opponents. I don't think they are as bad as they played in the SL series. I hope they put the past performances behind and play to their potential.
Good luck tigers.
