watch New Zealand vs India 1st Twenty20 live streaming

World champions India are worried more about the New Zealand weather than the composition of the New Zealand team.

The Indians face Daniel Vettori's men when they take on New Zealand in the first Twenty20 cricket international at the AMI Park on Wednesday.

The advent of autumn has seen the temperatures drop and there have been sporadic spells of rain, which have offset India's preparation for the match.

Cold windy factor could unruffle Indians 

More than the Black Caps' resilience and home advantage, it will be this cold-windy factor which could ruffle Mahendra Singh Dhoni's all-conquering legion.

Given their streak of success in this format and the plethora of talent they have in their ranks, India start as hot favorites in the two-match Twenty20 series.
