New Delhi, Nov 3: New Zealand pace spearhead Matt Henry was on Friday ruled out of the World Cup with a torn right hamstring and has been replaced by Kyle Jamieson.
The 31-year-old sustained the injury during New Zealand’s match against South Africa in Pune on Wednesday and an MRI scan confirming that he had a grade two lower tear, which will require a minimum of two to four weeks of recovery time.“We’re gutted for him,” head coach Gary Stead said in Bengaluru.
“Matt’s been a crucial part of our One-day side for a long time and to see him ruled out as we reach the business end of this tournament is immensely disappointing.“He’s consistently been ranked inside the ICC top 10 ODI bowlers for the past few years which is testament to his class and skills.
“Moreover, Matt’s a great team man and we’re all going to miss his personality and experience.” Jamieson reached Bengaluru late on Thursday and was expected to train with the team on Friday. (PTI)
