New Zealand fast bowler Matt Henry has been forced to miss the final one-day international against England because of a calf injury. Kristian Clarke has been called into the squad as his replacement, according to the team announcement on Friday.

This development follows the Black Caps' series victory on Wednesday, where Blair Tickner, substituting for Henry, impressed with a remarkable 4-34 in Hamilton, securing a five-wicket win over the visitors.

Tickner initially joined the team as a replacement for Kyle Jamieson, who was out due to side stiffness. Clarke, who is yet to make his international debut, has shown promise recently with an unbeaten century and a 3-57 performance in the domestic Ford Trophy competition.
