New Zealand leg-spinner Ish Sodhi has been ruled out of the T20I series against South Africa due to a fractured thumb sustained in training. The injury will sideline him for at least four weeks, impacting the team's spin attack. Lockie Ferguson is set to return for the upcoming matches.

The right-arm fast bowler, known for his express pace and ability to deliver in crunch moments, is expected to return to franchise duties for PBKS later in the IPL 2026 season

Rain has delayed the Pakistan vs New Zealand T20 World Cup 2026 Super 8 match in Colombo, with drizzle covering the ground. Overs will start being cut after 8:10 PM IST, and the latest start for a five-over game is 10:16 PM IST. Pakistan recalled Fakhar Zaman, while New Zealand welcomed back Mitchell Santner and Lockie Ferguson. Fans await weather updates.

Lockie Ferguson will miss the early IPL 2026 matches for Punjab Kings to spend time with his newborn. He plans to join later.
