New Zealand were dealt a setback in the ongoing ODI series against India after pace sensation Adam Milne was ruled out owing to a torn abdominal muscle. Medium-pacer Hamish Bennett has been called up as his replacement in the Black Caps’ squad, which won the first ODI of the five-match series in Napier.
The 21-year-old Milne played in the first ODI at Napier and picked up one wicket in 7.3 overs that he bowled, before walking off in the 41st over of the Indian chase. It was only his seventh ODI in a short career so far, wherein he has earned quite a reputation as a tear-away fast bowler.
He clocked a 153 km/hr delivery against West Indies in the first T20 International at Auckland in their recently concluded tour.
