BLACKCAP Brendon McCullum’s on going back complaint has ruled him out for the remainder of the HRV Cup. It has been decided that the most common sense approach is for Brendon to rest to give him the best possible opportunity of taking a full part in the upcoming international series with Pakistan.
Captain Daniel Vettori is also missing HRV Cup as well as the upcoming Twenty20 series against Pakistan as he recovers back stiffness suffered during the recent tour of India.
The BLACKCAPS Twenty20 and Test squads are expected to be named on Wednesday 22 November.
