NZ vs AUS: Australia suffers major setback ahead of T20I series, explosive batsman ruled out due to injury
New Zealand vs Australia, T20I Series: The Australian and New Zealand teams will play a three-match T20I series between October 1-4. Australian wicketkeeper-batsman Josh Inglis has been ruled out of the T20I series against New Zealand due to a calf strain. Alex Carey has been included in the squad as his replacement. Inglis experienced discomfort in his right calf after a running session in Perth earlier this week. Following a scan, the decision was made to rule him out of the T20I series against New Zealand.
Cricket Australia wants to include wicketkeeper-batsman Josh Inglis in an exclusive training program. The board is expecting Josh Inglis to regain a place in the team before the three-match ODI series against India. Josh Inglis is an integral part of Australia's white-ball side. Australia also requires Josh Inglis in red-ball cricket. This wicketkeeper will serve as Alex Carey's cover in the home Ashes series.
Josh Inglis has scored 878 runs for Australia in 36 T20Is, averaging 30.27, while in 33 ODIs, he has scored 766 runs at an average of 29.46. He also has 119 runs in three Tests. During this period, Inglis has taken 30 catches in ODIs and made four stumpings. In T20Is, he has 19 catches and stumped two batsmen.
The Australian and New Zealand teams will play a three-match T20I series between October 1-4. All matches will be held in Mount Maunganui. Australia will then play three ODIs against India starting October 19, followed by a five-match T20I series.
Australia's squad for the T20I series against New Zealand: Mitchell Marsh (captain), Travis Head, Alex Carey, Matthew Short, Mitchell Owen, Marcus Stoinis, Glenn Maxwell, Tim David, Sean Abbott, Ben Dwarshuis, Xavier Bartlett, Adam Zampa, Josh Hazlewood, Matt Kuhnemann.
