New Zealand Announces Squad For 1st Test vs South Africa, This Player Recalled After 7 Years
New Zealand recalled seasoned Colin de Grandhomme and Hamish Rutherford and called up wicketkeeper Cam Fletcher and pacer Blair Tickner as cover for regulars in an extended squad for the first Test against South Africa, starting February 17 at Christchurchs Hagley Oval.
With the Covid-19 pandemic still raging, New Zealand Cricket (NZC) decided to pick a larger than the normal 15-strong squad, which will allow the selectors to better cover their options while mitigating the health risk associated with bringing players into the team environment at short notice, should there be any injuries.
