The right-arm Kiwi fast bowler, Kyle Mills, has made his way back to the New Zealand squad for the one-off away Test against Zimbabwe.
The Kiwis are set to meet the Rhodesians in a couple of Twenty20 Internationals and three One Day Internationals (ODIs) before playing the only Test at Bulawayo, from November 1 to November 5, 2011.
Along with http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Dean-Brownlie-c1349 has also been included in the setup.
Under the command of the newly-appointed skipper http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758.
Following fitness issues of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/John-Geoffrey-Wright-c67883, believes that it is a massive opportunity for the 32-year-old to regain a permanent role in the national troop.
"This is a good opportunity for Kyle Mills. He is keen to play the five-day form of the game so he'll take his chance with the other four bowlers. He has done a lot of training this winter and is keen to play," said Wright, who was appointed as New Zealand’s
head-coach just before the recent mega event.
Mills, who has played in 19 Tests so far in his career, was seen in action during the qualifying round of the ongoing Champions League Twenty20. He managed to grab three scalps in a couple of games and looked in a great rhythm.
Talking about the two new faces, Bracewell and Brownlie, who were included in the national crew in lieu of their fantastic performance in the recent Emerging Players Tournament, the coach shared, "Doug Bracewell did very well at the Emerging Player Tournament
so that led to his selection in both tour parties. Like Bracewell, Dean Brownlie had a good EPT and strong domestic form so has earned his place. He's a player we think a fair bit of."
