New Zealand, on Wednesday (August 9), announced their squad for the upcoming T20I series against UAE and England. The Black Caps will play three T20Is against UAE before flying to the UK where they are scheduled to play 4 T20Is against England.

Veteran fast-bowler Tim Southee will lead the team in both series. After the T20I assignment against UAE ends, Southee will join the London Spirits outfit for their last league game. He will also be available for the finals if the London-based outfit manages to qualify.

A total of 11 players from New Zealand have signed up for the ongoing edition of The Hundred. The players who have been picked for the T20I series will join their national side for the series starting on August 30, three days after the Hundred final at Lord’s.

New Zealand T20I squad:

The Black Caps have recalled fast bowlers Blair Tickner and Ben Lister for the T20I series against UAE. The pacers have managed to make it to the squad after allrounder Henry Shipley and fast-bowler Lockie Ferguson withdrew from the squad. Shipley will miss the series after sustaining a back injury while playing for Sussex.

On the other hand, Ferguson will be busy playing for Welsh Fire in The Hundred after signing as a replacement player. Star pacer Kyle Jamieson has also returned to the team after fully recovering from a back injury. Jamieson has not played a T20I for New Zealand since March 2021.
