On February 14, McCullum's team gave the home fans plenty more reason to be loved on Valentine's Day. Exactly six weeks later, West Indies will be out to break many hearts.Gayle's participation is a huge point of speculation. He trained with the team at the Basin Reserve on Friday, but as Holder said, the call will only be taken on match morning.
The forecast for Saturday is some cloud, some sun, and no chance of rain. Temperatures are expected to range between 19 and 14 degrees. There was not a blemish in the sky when the ball swung heaps for Southee against England, but there wasn’t as much assistance for the bowlers in the other two games at this venue. The pitch will be the same one on which South Africa made 341 before dismissing UAE for 195.
Results so far at 2015 World Cup:
Beat Sri Lanka by 98 runs (A solid batting performance from the batsmen saw New Zealand post 331-6, which the bowling attack easily defended by bundling out Sri Lanka for 233)
New Zealand v West Indies head-to-head:
Total played: 60 West Indies won 30, New Zealand won 23, no result 7
Never met at Wellington Regional Stadium
Last match: Jan. 8, 2014 – West Indies won by 203 runs in Hamilton

With the team banking on Gayle to return to the line-up, the management will have to take a call on who to drop. The likeliest candidate is Smith, whose best is 31 and average 15.50. Johnson Charles scored 55 from 40 balls against the UAE when opening in Gayle's place, so he should hold on to his spot. If Smith is retained, Charles could drop down a spot to No 3. Should that happen, Jonathan Carter may have to move out, even though he scored his maiden ODI fifty in the previous match.Darren Sammy feels the pressure is on New Zealand since they are the side backed by many to win the World Cup
