Vettori out, Boult debuts for BLACKCAPS

The BLACKCAPS are without the Daniel Vettori for the second Test against Australia with the experienced spinner suffering an injury shortly before the start of play.

Vettori aggravated his left hamstring during team warm-ups at Bellerive Oval in Hobart before the start of play.  The late change hands 22 year old left-arm bowler Trent Boult his first Test cap.
