New Zealand Test Cricket Team, Captain Tom Latham: New Zealand test cricket team is coming to India in the near future. But even before this the team got a new captain. Wicketkeeper and batsman Tom Latham has been given the captaincy in place of Kane Williamson. Latham has started showing his aggressive attitude even before starting the work. New Zealand team is going to tour India this month. The captain of the Kiwi team himself has challenged the Indian team.

There is to be a 3 match test series between India and New Zealand. Before this series, Team Saudi had resigned from the post of captain. Since then Tom Latham has been given the same team. Saudi had resigned after the defeat of New Zealand team in Sri Lanka.

After becoming the captain, Latham has asked the team players to play without fear against India. He said that the New Zealand team will challenge India on its home ground. He said, 'I think we have to continue the good work. I will depend on the spinner in my team. Going to India is a good challenge. Once we go there, I hope we will be able to play there with complete freedom. We will play without any fear and try to defeat them. If we can do that, we'll give ourselves a chance.

Tom Latham takes a look at the Test series played in India. They've found a way to play here. He believes that the only way to win against India on home soil is aggressive cricket. He said, 'We have seen that the teams that have performed well in India in the past have been very aggressive, especially with the bat. He plays some such shots which put the Indian team under pressure. We will go there and decide how we will go there and how we will play. We have to play well. Hopefully we can coordinate well there.
