Dhaka: While New Zealand should have a relatively easier time in Bangladesh that series starts on Thursday but Kiwi captain Daniel Vettori is refusing to allow any complacency set in.

On the Bangladesh series

The results might not have been what they wanted but we are looking at them individually and they are still a good side. And if we are not at the top of our game we might get upset. That's the thing we are trying to avoid while we are here.

On the warm up

It's been a nice build up so far. We are getting used to the conditions. We are coming from New Zealand where it is a bit cold but we are quickly adapting.

On expectations from series

We have come here expecting to win; so, nothing less than that. We are not underestimating Bangladesh as an opposition. We know how good they can be in their own backyard.

We have some goals. If we win 3-0 in the ODIs, then we go to number two in the world and that will be something special for New Zealand.
