New Zealand announces WT20 squad

WELLINGTON: At the end of Pakistan series, New Zealand have announced their squad for World Twenty20 (WT20) event, which is to be held next month in India.

Kiwis will head to India armed with a three-pronged spin arsenal after offspinner Nathan McCullum, legspinner Ish Sodhi and left-arm orthodox allrounder Mitchell Santner were included in a 15-man squad for the World T20 announced on Monday.

New Zealand had rotated through a series of spinners in their limited-overs squads during the recent pair of home series against Sri Lanka and Pakistan, though McCullum had not played for New Zealand since the tour to South Africa in August.
