Injured williamson

ICC World Test Championship Final: Kane Williamson will not travel to India for the third Test in Mumbai to ensure he is fit for the upcoming three-Test series against England, the New Zealand Cricket said on Tuesday.

Williamson has been battling a groin complaint he picked up against Sri Lanka last month and hasn't featured for the BlackCaps through their drought-breaking victories in the opening two matches of the series against India.

"A cautious approach will instead be taken which will see Williamson continue his groin injury rehabilitation in New Zealand ahead of the first England Test starting at Hagley Oval on November 28," it said in a statement.
