New Zealand's bench is making easy work of Pakistan. Pakistan are close to full-strength and their line-up showed glimpses of something to come but New Zealand will be a lot happier with how they went early on in the game.

ODIs have been scarce at Napier with the last five all going the way of the team batting second. Results give an easy indicator of which way to go when winning the toss. A green tinge indicates there is swing early on impacting sides batting first.

Mohammad Rizwan
Rizwan, sacked as T20 skipper has a point to prove. He struggled in the Champions Trophy and will be eager to make things right.
Nathan Smith
Nathan Smith has a role to play and he has done the role well in the past. He is a handy batter down the order and chips in with some quiet overs pretty well too.
Both teams are a little short on experience and home advantage could keep New Zealand favourites to start.
