The opportunity to play a rare ChCh AWs game, at sold out sparkly new Te Kaha in November a likely attraction in itself. 

The likes of Bell and Surman who grew up in Canterbury, would put their hands up you would think. Depending on injury niggles, and their club schedules.

I guess Baze is also partly auditioning for the coaching role longer term. I'm sure the WC review will carry the greatest weighting, but not beating India won't help his chances. So he will want to have a reasonably strongest squad. Or will a coaching decision be made by NZF before that Nov window?
