James Faulkner, Australia all-rounder,
has been ruled out of the remainder of
their New Zealand tour after injuring
the right hamstring in the 159-run loss
to the hosts in the first One-Day
International at Eden Park in
Auckland, on Wednesday (February 3)
.Marcus Stoinis has been announced as
Faulkner's replacement.
"James reported increased stiffness in
his right hamstring during the first
innings tonight and found it difficult
running during our batting innings,"
said Alex Kountouris, Cricket
Australia's Sports Science and Sport
Medicine Manager. "Unfortunately,
with the short turnaround between
games we do not believe he will
recover in time to take any further
part in the series. As a result, he will
return to Melbourne tomorrow to have
scans and start rehabilitation.We are
hopeful this is only a low grade injury
but will know more in the coming
days." Faulkner ruled out of New Zealand tour - Cricbuzz

In a bid to keep their series hopes alive,
Australia have recalled in-form
batsman Usman Khawaja ahead of the
second One-Day International against
New Zealand on Saturday (February 6).
A win for New Zealand at their
Westpac Stadium fortress would see
them wrap up the three-match series
with a game to spare and snap a
remarkable run by Australia who have
won each of their last six ODI series
and the 2015 ICC Cricket World Cup,
over the past two years.
Shaun Marsh was surprisingly
preferred to Khawaja in the team that
conceded the first game by 159 runs in
Auckland on Wednesday.
Australia have also brought in leg-
spinner Adam Zampa for the second
round in Wellington to replace injured
quick James Faulkner.
Khawaja, who has not played an ODI
for three years but scored centuries in
three consecutive Tests against New
Zealand and the West Indies late last
year, Read More: Australia recall Khawaja for New Zealand ODIs - Cricbuzz
