A new look NZ side has been announced for the first of two tests in Aussie.
The playing eleven is based on a combination of general stats plus current season's form.
Martin Guptill misses out due to the exceptional form of Stephen Murdoch, who hit three centuries during the domestic season.
Young off-spinner Bhupinder Singh has taken a hatful of wickets at an average of 20 and has been preferred to the aging Vettori. Talk about a baptism by fire!
