Karachi, Jan 7 (IANS) New Zealand fast-bowler Matt Henry has been ruled out of ODI series against Pakistan and India after suffering an abdominal strain on day five of the second Test in Karachi.
"Matt Henry will return home with other members of the Test Squad not taking part in the ODI Series against Pakistan after suffering an abdominal strain on Day 5 of the 2nd Test in Karachi. A replacement in the ODI Squad to face Pakistan and India will be confirmed soon," said an update from New Zealand Cricket (NZC) through Twitter on Saturday.
Previously, fast bowler Blair Tickner was named as a replacement for fellow pacer Adam Milne in New Zealand's white-ball squad for ODIs against Pakistan and India due to concerns over the latter's preparation for bowling in 50-over cricket.
