T20 WC: Santner Unwell, Jamieson Back As Canada Ask NZ To Bowl
T20 World Cup: Canada won the toss and elected to bat against New Zealand in their Group D match of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup here at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Tuesday.
The Kiwis made two changes to their playing XI from the previous game, with regular skipper Mitchell Santner unwell and rested, and Lockie Ferguson having left the side for the birth of his first child.
Winning the toss, Canada skipper Dilpreet Bajwa said, “It looks like a good surface to start on, and later in the game there might be some assistance for the spinners. So it’s better to put runs on the board and defend a target. We’ve had a couple of night games recently, so a day game is a nice change. I think it suits us, especially with our spinners - the conditions should help them later on. One change- Kaleem Sana is out due to injury, and Shivam Sharma comes in.”
