New Zealand pacer Adam Milne ruled out of T20 World Cup
New Zealand have been handed a huge setback ahead of the upcoming T20I World Cup, with pacer Adam Milne being ruled out of the showpiece event. The blow comes following a torn left hamstring he suffered on Sunday while playing for Sunrisers Eastern Cape in SA20. New Zealand have confirmed that Kyle Jamieson will be added to their T20 World Cup squad as Milne's replacement. Notably, Kyle Jamieson is currently involved in the ongoing five-match T20I series against India.
"We're all gutted for Adam. He'd worked so hard to get himself ready for the tournament and was looking back to his best in his eight games for the Eastern Cape Sunrisers. It's unfortunate timing for Adam and we wish him a speedy recovery," said head coach Rob Walter.
"It's great that Kyle [Jamieson] is already with us here in India. He's an integral member of our pace-bowling group and has hit the ground running on this tour. He's a hard worker with a good set of skills and experiences that will hold him in good stead for the tournament," Walter said.
New Zealand's updated squad for T20 World Cup: Mitchell Santner (c), Finn Allen, Michael Bracewell, Mark Chapman, Devon Conway, Jacob Duffy, Lockie Ferguson, Matt Henry, Kyle Jamieson, Daryl Mitchell, James Neesham, Glenn Phillips, Rachin Ravindra, Tim Seifert, Ish Sodhi
