Thoughts on NZs best team and line-up? Still some water under the bridge and would depend on players coming off (Guppy scoring decent runs at 100% S/R, Latham to put up some numbers as well maybe around 75-80% SR)

For me it would be:

  1. Guppy
  2. Latham
  3. Williamson
  4. Taylor
  5. B McCullum
  6. Anderson
  7. Ronchi
  8. N McCullum
  9. Southee
  10. Milne
  11. McClenneghan 

On slower pitches (Hamilton, Dunedin, Wellington) I'd probably drop a seamer and maybe bring Vettori or Elliot in alongside McCullum although not sure Elliot will be seen as a bowling option for the CWC.

My team would be very similar, probably only Mills for Milne would be the only change.  We won't see it though, they seem pretty locked in to opening with McCullum.
