Ross Taylor said the performance with the bat will allow you to lead by example and leading his team to Zimbabwe in their first mission since taking over from New Zealand captain Daniel Vettori. "There will always be nerves to take over as captain for the first time, but more importantly for me is to score runs, that runs from the front," Taylor told the New Zealand Herald. "If you value takes the team to follow and his speech becomes easier. There is no point preaching to the team if you're not scoring runs. "

New Zealand has been a long break from international cricket, which did not have, because of their semi-final exit at the World Cup in March earlier this year. They had to make only one field of preparation at home before the tour of Zimbabwe, and Taylor admitted that some of the practices would help match more. "Ideally, it would be good to have a few games more, but in the long term to take advantage of this break to the players. It will be a busy two years ahead."

There are four newcomers in New Zealand limited-overs and Test squads for the tour of Zimbabwe, but warned Taylor premature expectations of the faces tested. "Dear young people is the key to getting ahead. And 'the way of tracking these players and should not be taken away from their potential. There is no point to three new people and letting them know themselves."

Zimbabwe has been competitive in their season at home so far, beating Bangladesh in the ODI series and in the spot test before losing all three formats for Pakistan. Taylor believes that the trip would not be a cakewalk for his side. "It's nice to see they are very competitive on their own ground. All players under the illusion that it will be an easy trip, and I hope they have looked at the statistics. It's certainly not going to be a walk. "

New Zealand begin their tour with a Twenty20 international in Harare on October 15 followed by another T20,3 ODIs & one off Test after T20 series.
