So I had free time with me... So worked below calculation

Averages of today's bowling lineup

Bhuvi 35.44
Bumrah 21.75
Hardik 40.65
Jadeja 35.90
Chahal 26.36

Add all their averages and then divide by 5 to get mean average runs given per wicket; later multiply it by 10 to know average score teams can get against this line up...

Let's do this...
35.44+21.75+40.65+35.90+26.36 = 160.1
160.1/5 = 32.02 runs given per wicket
32.02 * 10 = 320.2 average runs scored
Subtract by 60 to get approx. Best display and add by 60 to get worst display.

60 is 10 overs worth of runs which I have taken as constant in above to get approx. range of this bowling line up

So the range of today's bowling line up is 240 on its best day to 380 at its worst day

Let's try same on an ideal bowling line up for India

Averages :
Bumrah 21.75
Shami 24.76
Kuldeep 23.97
Chahal 26.36
Hardik 40.65

21.75+24.75+23.97+26.36+40.65 = 137.49
137.49/5 = 27.49 runs given per wicket
27.49 * 10 = 274.9 average runs scored

Subtracting and adding by 60 as constant we get approximate range for this bowling line up

Range is 214 at best to 334 at worst...

337 England scored, we can say on our worst day
214 Afghanistan scored, we can say on our best day

We got away conceding less runs against NZ because their batting line up is paper thin with only Kane in form and rest struggling including Ross and Guptill...

Imagine 30 overs of Jadeja, Bhuvi and Hardik against England or Australia !  I rest my case !

I didn't say India's XI

Just post your eleven if you think NZ will win. Although I will tag you and laugh at your cricketing knowledge after India eventually does the inevitable and sends NZ back home.

 

Latham (wk), Guptill, Kane, Ross, Nicholls, Neesham, Grandhomme, Munro, Santner, Boult, Fergie

 

Batting till 9, with boult also capable of batting a bit at 10. fast scorers at 6-9. nicholls at his best position at 5. bowling: 2 bowlers + 3 all-rounders (neesham, grandhomme, santner) + 2 part-timers (kane & munro) can deliver 50 overs.
