New Zealand Names 16-Member T20I Squad for India Series; Ravindra Injured, Milne Returns
New Zealand has announced a 16-member squad for the five-match T20I series against India starting October 22, led by captain Mitchell Santner. The squad features a strong pace attack including the return of Adam Milne and Michael Bracewell, both recovering from injuries. Batting all-rounder Rachin Ravindra is ruled out due to a dislocated shoulder sustained during a promotional shoot, with an expected six-week recovery aiming for a return in the ODI series beginning November 4. The series will be played across four cities over 11 days.
