Matt Henry amid injury out of ICC World Cup 2023

During the last match New Zealand vs South Africa 2023, pace bowler Matt bowled 5.3 overs against rival team South Africa before leaving the match due to a hamstring injury. He went through hamstring scans to identify the extent of his injury.

Matt grabbed 11 wickets in the seven matches of the ICC Men’s World Cup 2023 tournament. Now he joins the expanding list of injured Kiwis players. Likewise, Kane Williamson is suffering from a thumb injury and Mark Chapman has a calf injury.

It is doubtful whether Kane and Mark will contribute to the match against Pakistan or not. Lockie Ferguson will hopefully participate in the upcoming match as he is continuing to recover from his Achilles injury. The New Zealand vs Pakistan match is going to be held tomorrow at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.
