Dharamsala: New Zealand might have been bruised and battered by India in the Test series, but batsman Luke Ronchi on Saturday asserted that the visitors would be a completely different side when it comes to limited-overs cricket and they were banking on their recent good form in the ODIs to sign off the long tour on a high note.
New Zealand were humiliated 0-3 by India in the Test series but Ronchi backed his team to come good in the five-match ODI series, starting with the first game at the picturesque HPCA stadium here today.
"It's completely different ball game now, completely different cricket, a cricket which we have been playing really well for a while now. Tests are gone now. We can't do anything about it. Now we are just looking forward to the fives ODIs," the wicketkeeper batsman told reporters during pre-match media briefing on Saturday.
"We are a good ODI team and if we can continue playing the way we have been playing for a while now, it's going to make for an interesting series.
"Our ODI cricket has been good for a quite a while now. We did not play that well in this Test series but in the past we have done great job in Tests as well. We will be positive going into each game and back our processes and skills," insisted Ronchi.
