New Zealand rested regular captain Kane Williamson and fast bowler Tim Southee to give them more time to recover from surgery."We're going to have a bowl, it looks a reasonably good surface but hopefully later on when he get a chance with the bat, it gets better," Latham said."We're very proud to be world champions and what we achieved four years ago but this is something new," Buttler said.
