NZ Black Caps to work on programme of easy competitors to boost morale

Apparently NZ Cricket spirits are high as the Black Caps are about to complete an unbeaten  series with over Bangladesh
From the TVNZ site: "The day-night fixture at AMI Stadium presents the New Zealanders with a golden opportunity to complete a rare 3-0 series whitewash, something they also achieved over Bangladesh at home in late 2007."

Information to hand suggests that this morale booster will be followed by a season playing other teams starting with the Maldives Only 11, moving to a team from Andorra (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/992562.stm) , then San Marino (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/2669927.stm), and ending with a series against a Woollongong under 15 team.   All of them will be home games in New Zealand to minimise chances of an energy depleting upset loss of any games, although cricket officials concede the Woollongong Schools' Team series is unlikely to be a whitewash.
