NZ names squads for Windies tour
WELLINGTON, New Zealand, MAY 3 (AP/UNB) - Opening batsman Brendon McCullum has been omitted from New Zealand's one-day and Twenty20 squads for its tour of the West Indies, playing only in the test matches.
New Zealand Cricket named its three T20, ODI and test squads Thursday, and McCullum's name was included only in the test squad. Selection manager Kim Littlejohn said the former wicketkeeper had played a lot of cricket in recent seasons and had earned a rest.
South African-born fast bowler Neil Wagner has been named in the test squad little more than a week after the International Cricket Council granted him dispensation to be selected for New Zealand.
