Jamieson, O’Rourke, Sears Return To Tests, Foxcroft Earns Maiden Call-up; Williamson Back For England
Sir Richard Hadlee Medal: The New Zealand selectors have bolstered their pace-bowling unit by deciding to bring back spearheads Kyle Jamieson and Will O’Rourke for a one-off Test against Ireland in late May and a three-Test series against England in June.
The Canterbury quicks will join a large contingent of seam bowlers, with Zak Foulkes, Matt Henry, Nathan Smith, and Blair Tickner named for both tours, while Michael Rae and the uncapped Kristian Clarke have been included for the Ireland Test only, along with Ben Sears, who will also head to England as the 16th travelling reserve.
With the full support of New Zealand Cricket (NZC), reigning Sir Richard Hadlee Medal winner Jacob Duffy will miss the tours to remain in New Zealand as he and his wife await the birth of their first child.
