New Zealand Squad vs India 2025: Bracewell to Captain ODIs, Santner Returns for T20Is

New Zealand have announced their squads for the ODI and T20I series against India, starting on January 11. Kane Williamson will not be part of the series, and Michael Bracewell has been named captain for the ODI matches. Jayden Lennox has been been called for his maiden series, after a great domestic showing in the year gone by.

“Jayden has been an identified player of interest for some time and has some good New Zealand “A” experience under his belt. He’s consistently been one of the top performers in white-ball cricket domestically for a number of seasons,” coach Rob Walter said.

Bracewell to lead ODIs, Santner returns as T20I captain

Mitchell Santner has recovered from his injury and is back in the team as the T20I captain. Leg-spinner Adi Ashok has also been added to the ODI squad after doing well in List A matches. The series will first begin with the ODIs. India have only named their T20 squad, that will be missing names like Shubman Gill and Jitesh Sharma. They are yet to name the ODI squad.

New Zealand T20I squad: Mitchell Santner, Michael Bracewell, Mark Chapman, Devon Conway, Jacob Duffy, Zak Foulkes, Matt Henry, Kyle Jamieson, Bevon Jacobs, Daryl Mitchell, James Neesham, Glenn Phillips, Rachin Ravindra, Tim Robinson, Ish Sodhi.
