New Zealand have been forced to reshuffle their squad as all-rounder Jimmy Neesham will skip the Kiwis' upcoming T20I series against England.
Neesham was due to join the NZ camp following the completion of his domestic campaign with The Oval Invincibles in England's domestic T20 competition.
But the 32-year-old will instead return to New Zealand to be alongside his wife ahead of the birth of their first child according to the ICC.
Neesham has featured in more than 150 matches national team and played a pivotal role in the success they enjoyed in the last edition of the ODI World Cup as he amassed 232 runs and claimed 15 wickets.
