My personal preference is for games to be high scoring in ODI's, I consider a low score under 200. I like to see risks taken and fast running. When I want to watch the batsmen get tested and be patient, that's when I love test matches.

But out of the seven games played, everytime India batted first not only did they lose, they didn't once post a score over 200. Each time India batted first NZ got to the total required at the earliest on the 26th over and the latest on the 37th over. This is what made it very one sided and boring. And if I recall correctly, NZC CEO Martin Snedden said they were going to look into the pitch conditions.
