Ollie Robinson Replaces Injured Cox In England Squad For NZ Tests
ICC World Test Championship: Uncapped wicketkeeper-batter Ollie Robinson has been added to England squad for their ongoing New Zealand tour to replace the injured Jordan Cox, England and Wales Cricket Board said on Thursday.
Cox fractured his thumb during a warm-up fixture in Queenstown and was subsequently ruled out of the three-match ICC World Test Championship series, with batter Ollie Pope taking the gloves for the first Test in Christchurch with regular keeper Jamie Smith away on paternity leave.
Robinson is expected to join the squad in New Zealand later this week and and will come into contention for a Test debut as early as the second Test in Wellington that commences on December 6.
