Fisher Earns Maiden Call-up As NZ Name 16-man ODI Squad For WI Tour
Sir Richard Hadlee Medal: New Zealand have unveiled a 16-member squad for their five-match ODI series against the West Indies, with Northern Districts fast bowler Matthew Fisher receiving his first-ever call-up in the format and Jacob Duffy returning to international cricket.
The series, which begins on July 11 in Guyana before concluding in Barbados on July 21, marks the BlackCaps' first ODI assignment in the Caribbean since their historic series triumph there in 2022.
Fisher's inclusion is one of the major talking points of the squad announcement. The 26-year-old pace bowler has impressed in domestic one-day cricket, collecting 43 wickets in 25 List A matches at an average of 26. While he has already represented New Zealand in a Test against Zimbabwe in August 2025 and a T20I against Bangladesh in April 2026, the upcoming tour will offer him his first opportunity in ODI cricket.
