New Zealand suffer Henry blow ahead of fourth T20I

New Zealand on Saturday suffered an injury blow ahead of the fourth T20I with pace-bowler Matt Henry ruling out from the remainder of the series.

According to a statement issued by the Blackcaps, the pacer will continue his rehabilitation programme.

Henry suffered injury in his right-shoulder during the recent ICC Champions Trophy semi-final win against South Africa.

He has also been dealing with left-knee issue.

Canterbury pace-bowler Zak Foulkes has been retained for the remaining two matches of the series following Henry’s injury.

Will O’Rourke, who was originally listed for the opening three games, has instead joined the T20I squad for the final two matches in place of Kyle Jamieson.

The Blackcaps lead the series 2-1, with the remaining games at Bay Oval in Tauranga on Sunday and Sky Stadium in Wellington on Wednesday night.
