Cello Basin Reserve: New Zealand opening batter Devon Conway will miss the first Test against Australia, starting at the Cello Basin Reserve here on Thursday due to a thumb injury he sustained during the T20I series.

Batter Henry Nicholls has been called into the squad as batting cover and will join the team in Wellington for training this morning.

Conway was struck on his left thumb during the second T20I against Australia on Friday. He was then forced to leave the field with Finn Allen taking over the keeping duties for the remainder of the innings.
