New Zealand has made only one change in their squad for the last three ODI’s against Pakistan. All-rounder Colin De Grandhomme replaces George Worker, after coming from a break due to his father’s death.
“It’s been a difficult time for Colin and I know the group is excited to catch up with him. Everyone has been thinking of him while he’s been away. Colin has been effective for us with bat and ball and provides another all-rounder option,” selector Garvin Larsen said.
The selectors have to leave out one of the spinners to include Grandhomme in the first XI. Todd Astle was on the expensive side in the second ODI conceding seven runs in an over. On the other hand, Mitchell Santner was economical giving away only 34 runs in his quota bagging one wicket.
New Zealand squad: Kane Williamson (c), Todd Astle, Trent Boult, Lockie Ferguson, Colin de Grandhomme, Martin Guptill, Matt Henry, Tom Latham, Colin Munro, Henry Nicholls, Mitchell Santner, Tim Southee, Ross Taylor.
