New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson has admitted he is wary of the threat Indian bowlers could pose on a spin-friendly pitch as the two sides prepare for their opening World T20 clash at Vidarbha Cricket Stadium, in Nagpur, on Tuesday.
Insisting that spin could play a major role in the T20 format's pinnacle event, the 25-year-old said that the Nagpur pitch was expected to be slow and could perhaps take a little turn.
Last Year, the International Cricket Council (ICC) had rated the pitch as 'poor' after the Test match between India and South Africa ended inside three days.
India and New Zealand have been drawn alongside Australia, Pakistan and Bangladesh in Group B.
Mahendra Singh Dhoni's side, who recently clinched their sixth Asia Cup title, will head into the tournament as the No 1 ranked team.
