New Zealand Cricket Board announced its team
Let us tell you that the team announced by the New Zealand Cricket Board for the three-Test series between India and New Zealand has been led by Tom Latham. Before Tom Latham, this team was led by Tim Southee. But he recently resigned from the captaincy, due to which the board has made Latham the new captain. Let it be known that New Zealand Cricket has announced its 17-member team on Wednesday, October 9.
Kane Williamson has also been given a chance in New Zealand’s 17-member team. But it is difficult to see him playing in the initial matches of this Test series. Because he is currently suffering from a groin injury. The New Zealand Cricket Board has included uncapped player Mark Chapman in the team as a cover for the former Kiwi captain.
Not only this, Michael Bracewell has also been selected in the team only for the first Test match and apart from him Ish Sodhi will be a part of the team in the second and third matches. New Zealand’s team looks very strong for the three-Test series against India, but it remains to be seen whether this team will really be able to compete with Team India or not.
