Virat Kohli in New Zealand
Small grounds are usually beneficial for the batsmen but not when the pitches favour the bowlers. The pitches in the island nation offer a lot of swing for the pacers and New Zealand's bowling lineup is a threat to even the best.
Kohli has played four one day internationals in New Zealand and has amassed 214 runs at an average of 71.33. In seven tTest innings, the gutsy batsman has scored 373 runs at a healthy average of 62.17. India will travel to New Zealand in January 2019 after their tour to Australia in December-January.
