A huge difference between talent level

To begin with, the New Zealand talent comes from the New Zealand Basketball league, which is mixed with aspirants who had played in American college basketball but yes the majority of them hail from the nation of New Zealand, which is full of taller and more athletic players than the Indian set-up. They are not even fielding their first-choice team and that can overwhelm the Indian team too. The Indian squad has some veterans like Vishesh Briguvanshi, one of the most renowned players in the nation itself. Young Indian Aryan who is 7’2″ has earned some experience in NBA Academy, how will it help him?
