Williamson ruled out of remainder Pakistan series

New Zealand Captain Kane Williamson has been ruled out of the remainder of the Pakistan T20I series due to hamstring injury.

Williamson had a scan on Monday, following the scan the injury would be confirmed on the same day, once the results are ready.

New Zealand Head Coach Gary Stead said Williamson would probably sit out the final two games and prepare himself for the South Africa Test series.

“With the test matches so close as well and in the big scheme of things (they are) a higher priority I think we’ll try and make sure he’s right for that,” Stead said.
