The entire top seven that played the majority of the matches in the recent T20 World Cup in India and Sri Lanka has been rested for the ongoing five-match series in New Zealand. It has opened up the way for newbies Connor Esterhuizen, Dian Forrester and Jordan Hermann to make their T20I debuts on this tour.

It is also an opportunity for fringe players like Jason Smith, Tony de Zorzi, who has recovered from the injury that ruled him out of the T20 World Cup, and George Linde to show their value in a bid to push harder for a place in the regular starting XI.
