Phillips, Astle added to New Zealand squad

Visakhapatnam: Wicket-keeper batsman Glenn Phillips and leg-spinner Todd Astle have been added to New Zealand’s limited overs squad that will face India away from home.

Both the players have made their debuts for New Zealand but are yet to play ODI format for their side.

Wicket-keeper Phillips has only a T20I under his belt while Astle has so far played two T20Is and two Tests for the Kiwis.

Phillips played three List A matches against India ‘A’ for New Zealand ‘A’ and notched up a hundred in the first game while Astle bagged five wickets in three matches including a four-for.

While Phillips and Astle are the new inclusion in the lineup, coach Mik Hesson has insisted that they would be looking for an aggressive start.

New Zealand begin the proceedings for the three-match ODI series from October 22 in Mumbai while T20I series begins from November 1.

ODI squad: Kane Williamson (capt), Todd Astle, Trent Boult, Colin de Grandhomme, Martin Guptill, Matt Henry, Tom Latham, Henry Nicholls, Adam Milne, Colin Munro, Glenn Phillips, Mitchell Santner, Tim Southee, Ross Taylor, George Worker

T20 squad: Kane Williamson (capt), Todd Astle, Trent Boult, Tom Bruce, Colin de Grandhomme, Martin Guptill, Matt Henry, Tom Latham, Henry Nicholls, Adam Milne, Colin Munro, Glenn Phillips, Mitchell Santner, Ish Sodhi, Tim Southee
