The fourth ODI between England and New Zealand at Lord's witnessed as many as three New Zealand players walk off the field due to injuries. The 2023 ICC Men's World Cup is less than a month away, and New Zealand had to cope with a number of injuries on Friday at Lord's.

Commentators were heard saying that Mitchell had apparently dislocated his left ring finger in a major blow for New Zealand.
Washington Sundar has been called as a cover for the injured Axar Patel for the Asia Cup final against Sri Lanka on Sunday. Axar sustained several injuries during India's six-run loss to Bangladesh in their last Super Four match on Friday. The extent of Axar's injuries is currently unknown and hence bowling all-rounder Washington, who was part of India's Asian Games squad, has been called up as a precautionary measure. "Axar is currently suffering from multiple injuries. He has hurt his little finger, got hit on forearm by a throw from deep and most importantly has developed a hamstring niggle. So Washington has been called," a BCCI source told PTI on conditions of anonymity.

New Zealand, dramatically beaten by England in the 2019 World Cup final on the same ground, struggled badly in their run chase, slumping to 211 all out in 38.2 overs.
