West Indies T20 opening batsman Brandon King is confident ahead of the team’s upcoming series against New Zealand and ready to draw on his previous experiences against the team.
The Windies will be eager to bounce back from a difficult loss in the previous series against India, but could also find the going tough against a full-strength New Zealand, the world’s 5th ranked team.
New Zealand has won the last two series against the West Indies both taking place in New Zealand. King took part in the last series but scored just 24 runs in the three matches. Against India, however, the player tallied a decent 101 runs in three matches.
“They’re a world-renowned team, their bowling attack is very good, but I have played them before so I have that experience to draw on,” King told members of the press on Tuesday.
“I think my game has also improved. I’m in a better place to face the challenges, so I back myself.”
