    Kane Williamson returns for T20Is against India: Details here

    New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson has returned to the side for the upcoming five-match T20I series against India from January 24.

Meanwhile, the side would miss the services of Trent Boult and Lockie Ferguson. Here are further details.

However, fellow pacer James Neesham, who is recovering from an injury, has not been included in the squad, but would feature for the 'A' side against India A.

    We're delighted to have Hamish back: NZ chief selector

    "We're delighted to have Hamish back in the fold for what will be a huge series against India. We all know he brings good pace and bounce, but it's the clever variations he's added that make him such a well-rounded T20 bowler," said Gavin Larsen.
