Replacement Players for 4th & 5th T20I Matches

Due to IPL commitments, Kyle Jamieson and Will O’Rourke will not be available for the last two T20I matches. To fill their spots, the New Zealand management has decided to include experienced fast bowler Matt Henry and young pacer Zakary Foulkes for the 4th and 5th T20Is. These players are not part of the IPL, so they will be available to support the team in the final two matches.

For the first three T20I matches, New Zealand has selected a slightly different squad. While this squad is relatively strong, the absence of regular players can be noticed. The team management has given opportunities to new players so they can prove their talent on the international stage.

As of now, New Zealand has not yet announced its ODI squad for the Pakistan series. Cricket fans are eagerly waiting to see whether the team will continue experimenting in ODIs or if a full-strength squad will be selected.
