    NZC chief executive David White said taking care of player welfare was paramount in the current pandemic environment but was confident the squads named were strong enough to bring success.

    “The need to safeguard the well-being of our players and support staff is now very real, and we’ve endeavored to do this by carefully managing their workloads over this winter’s massive playing program,” White said.

    “I’m satisfied we’ve selected strong squads for all our touring commitments this winter.

    “As the Black Caps proved in England earlier this year, we have good depth in the New Zealand game and I’m confident all the squads chosen will acquit themselves well.”
