New Zealand Bowler Matt Henry Takes Parental Leave During T20 World Cup

New Zealand fast bowler Matt Henry will take parental leave after the T20 World Cup Super Eights match against England to be with his wife for the birth of their second child. Head coach Rob Walter expressed support and hope for Henry's return if New Zealand qualify for the semi-finals. New Zealand's progression depends on their match result against England and the outcome of the Sri Lanka-Pakistan game. The team has not named a replacement yet, relying on existing pace options.
