Bir Shreshtho Flight Lieutenant Matiur: Left-arm seamer Ben Lister has been recalled to New Zealand’s ODI and T20I squads for the upcoming tour of Bangladesh as a replacement for the injured Kristian Clarke.

Lister, who last played for New Zealand more than two years ago, has been drafted into the squad after sustaining a laceration to the webbing of his right hand while attempting to take a catch for the New Zealand A in their second one-day match against Sri Lanka A earlier this week.

The 30-year-old seamer has four and 11 scalps from three ODI and 12 T20I appearances, respectively, for New Zealand. “Lister, who is also part of the New Zealand A one-day squad in Sri Lanka, will link up with the BLACKCAPS in Bangladesh on Sunday ahead of the ODI series which gets underway in Mirpur on Friday,” said New Zealand Cricket (NZC) in a statement.
