    A suggestion from former Black Cap Chris Cairns about which New Zealand's seamers should do what when it come to the Wellington wind in the second test against England

    Cairns expects the trio of Tim Southee, Will O'Rourke and Matt Henry to use the Basin Reserve conditions to their advantage.



    The second test is set to start Friday.
