Pakistan skipper Mohammad Yousuf said the cold and seaming conditions in New Zealand would present stiff challenge to batsmen.
Sounding out a note of caution before the three-Test series starting November 24, Yousuf, who will lead the team in the series after Younus Khan withdrew from the tour, said on all previous tours to New Zealand, the conditions had been a challenge.
"And the fact is that we are going to New Zealand when the season has not started there properly so the weather would also be cold," he said.
"I think we are going to encounter seaming wickets and batting on them would be a big challenge for us," he said.
