In-form batter Daryl Mitchell has replaced injured Devon Conway in the New Zealand squad for the upcoming two-Test away series against India.


Conway was ruled out of the India tour and Sunday’s ICC T20 World Cup final against Trans-Tasman rivals Australia with a broken hand he sustained in New Zealand’s semi-final win over England on Wednesday. NZ coach Gary Stead said Conway would return home with the T20 squad after their three-game series in India next week, while Mitchell will stay on for Tests.


“Daryl’s versatility means he can cover a lot of batting positions and he’s certainly got plenty of confidence at the moment,” Stead said in a statement issued by NZ Cricket. NZ will reach India on Monday for the tour which begins with three T20Is (Nov 17 in Jaipur, Nov 19 in Ranchi and No 21 in Kolkata). The two-Test series starts in Kanpur (Nov 25) with the second Test to be held in Mumbai ( from December 3.)
