Re the conditions and the toss. I think the possibilty of swing and the extra bounce are important factors which will be right up there with anything else they're considering. The opposition of course are probably the biggest factor. The stats in Wellington say you should bowl first but McCullum put WI in the field based on who they were playing. I can't really pick it and that's after talking to players/coaches. Milne's replacement is also a hard one to pick. Pretty pumped whatever happens, huge day for sport in NZ's history.
