NZ Pacer Trent Boult Will Be Missing First Test vs England Due To IPL Commitments
Let-arm pace bowler Trent Boult is unlikely to be available for selection in New Zealand's first Test against England, beginning at Lord's on June 2, as the 32-year-old's team, Rajasthan Royals, is in the Indian Premier League (IPL) final against Gujarat Titans.
The IPL final will take place at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday (May 29), which means the Black Caps pace bowler will "have virtually no time to prepare properly for the first Test", a report in stuff.co.nz said on Saturday.
