Yes they look similar to South Africa in the 90's in that 1-5 will get so many runs and the rest will score more than the batsmen do.

McCullum has played well,Marshall did ok and showed some fight.Taylor threw his wicket away and the others weren't in long enough really to know how they will do in the rest of the series.We should be looking to bowl them out for under 250 but i have a sneaky feeling they will get close to 300 thanks to McCullum,Oram and Vettori.
