Star Kiwi opener Devon Conway has been ruled out of the NZ vs PAK 4th T20I after testing positive for COVID-19. His last-minute exclusion from the side could see Chad Bowes come into the fray in the fourth match at the Hagley Oval in Christchurch.
However, Conway getting tested for COVID-19 also means that other New Zealand and Pakistan players are also at risk of contracting the virus. With the Shaheen Afridi-led side already struggling in the series, a loss of a player could see them lose 5-0.
NZ vs PAK 4th T20I: Probable XIs
New Zealand: Chad Bowes (replaces Devon Conway), Finn Allen, Tim Seifert (wk), Daryl Mitchell, Glenn Phillips. Mark Chapman, Mitchell Santner (c), Ben Sears, Matt Henry, Ish Sodhi, Lockie Ferguson.
Pakistan: Mohammad Rizwan, Saim Ayub, Babar Azam, Fakhar Zaman, Iftikhar Ahmed, Azam Khan (wk), Mohammad Nawaz, Shaheen Afridi (c), Mohammad Wasim Jr, Haris Rauf, Zaman Khan.
