New Zealand must adapt quickly to Sri Lanka wickets: Chapman
New Zealand open their Super Eight campaign against Pakistan in Colombo on Saturday, ahead of matches against Sri Lanka and England at the same venue.
Pace, bounce and spin in Colombo will be markedly different to Chennai and Ahmedabad, where New Zealand played their group matches, but Chapman said the players knew all about the variation in pitch conditions.
"I think guys understand what they need to do on slower wickets after playing in India where pitches were batting friendly," said the middle-order batsman.
