Guptill recalled in NZ squad for England tour

Hamilton, Apr 7 (IBNS): New Zealand has recalled batsman Martin Guptill for their upcoming tour to England.

Guptill has last played a Test for the national side in 2013.

New Zealand coach and selector Mike Hesson was quoted as saying by blackcaps.co.nz: "This is a stable, established Test side but there will be opportunities for contenders.”

“Martin’s a classically-styled batsman and there’s really no reason why he can’t be as influential in the longer game as he is in the short," he said.

"In the absence of those players with IPL commitments, BJ Watling will be captain in the warm-up games against Somerset and Worcester, while pace bowlers Jacob Duffy (SBS Otago Volts) and Ben Wheeler (Devon Hotel Central Stags), and all-rounder Mitchell Santner (SKYCITY Northern Knights) will join the squad," read the website.

Mitchell Santner is the only uncapped player selected for the ODI and T20I squad.
