    New Zealand Cricket: New Zealand have been dealt another setback ahead of the fourth T20I against South Africa, with Tom Latham ruled out due to injury, NZC said on Sunday.

    Tom Blundell has been drafted into the squad as Latham's replacement, marking his return to T20I cricket for the first time since April 2025 for the Wellington match.

    Latham sustained a blow to his thumb from South African fast bowler Nqobani Mokoena during the third T20I at Eden Park on Friday. Despite the injury, he carried on batting and produced an unbeaten 63, guiding New Zealand to a comfortable eight-wicket victory.
