Black Caps

Black Caps' legspinner was struggling to generate energy with the ball at the end of last summer. Now he's thriving, and back in the test frame.

“I think in ODI cricket, spin has been pivotal all over the world. They were influential in helping New Zealand to the semifinals, where they lost to England by seven wickets. He and Santner had strong experience bowling in India, which should serve New Zealand well. “I think bowling with Mitchy [Santner] is about really understanding our roles. It’s great to have the success internationally already that it shows me it’s the right way forward, but it’s about really understanding that action.” [revealed last week he likely had 80% of his squad pencilled in ](https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/cricket/black-caps/131592063/batting-depth-being-worked-out-with-black-caps-world-cup-squad-80-complete)and Sodhi will be among the certainties.
