McKay Out From Pakistan Test, Tuffey Replaces Him

Auckland: Daryl Tuffey, the New Zealand fast bowler, has been included in the squad for the two-Test series against Pakistan, starting Friday January 07 at Seddon Park, Hamilton. He takes the place of Wellington fast bowler Andy McKay, who hasn't recovered fully from a side strain.

Tuffey played the last Test at home against Australia last March. He has played only four Tests in the last 80 months but is a more regular member of New Zealand's one-day side.

The other fast bowlers in the New Zealand Test squad are Chris Martin, Tim Southee, Brent Arnel and James Franklin.
