New Zealand all-rounder Kyle Jamieson has been named to the 14-man Test squad that will face England in a two-match series. Jamieson\u2019s most recent international appearance came in the Nottingham Test against England, where he was forced off the field due to a back injury. Jamieson recently played T20 and List A cricket for Auckland after being out for more than seven months.<\/p>\n
\u201cKyle is a very determined character with a strong desire to play international cricket for New Zealand. Since he was forced from the field in Nottingham he\u2019s been very clear that he wants to get his body right to return. He\u2019s reported good progress since his return to professional cricket with Auckland and he will get the opportunity to play some long form cricket as part of the New Zealand XI Squad to face England in their warm-up match next week at Seddon Park,\u201d said coach Stead.<\/p>\n
The first Test will be a pink-ball day-night match at Tauranga\u2019s Bay Oval from February 16 to 20. The second Test will be held at Wellington\u2019s Basin Reserve from February 24-28.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
