Indore: New Zealand bowling coach Shane Jurgensen yesterday hinted that skipper and prolific batsman Kane Willamson will play the third Test, which they need to win to salvage some pride. Williamson did well in the Kanpur Test with scores of 75 and 25 but he missed the second Test in Kolkata due to illness.
"It's looking positive. Final confirmation on that will probably be tomorrow. We trained today and he did some batting and had a decent hit and a run-around. We will have another look at him tomorrow but it looks positive," Jurgensen said at a press conference yesterday.Jugensen was also optimistic about Jimmy Neesham, who missed the first two Tests due to rib injury.
