New Zealand has been forced into a squad shuffle, with left-arm quick Ben Lister replacing the injured Kristian Clarke for their white-ball tour of Bangladesh beginning on April 17.

Lister, who has not played for the Black Caps in over two years, takes over from Clarke, who has been forced to withdraw due to injury.

Clarke suffered a cut to the webbing on his right hand while attempting a catch for New Zealand A in their tour match against Sri Lanka A earlier in the week.

Lister, also on the Sri Lanka tour, will travel to Bangladesh on Sunday ahead of the ODI series which begins next Friday, with the New Zealand-based team members departing for Bangladesh on Monday morning.

The first two games of the ODI series will take place in Mirpur, with the final match to be played in Chattogram.

The action then switches to the T20I series, with the first two matches taking place in Chattogram on April 27 and 29. The final game of the series will be played in Dhaka on May 2.

The Black Caps finished as the runners-up of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 before going down to South Africa 3-2 in a home T20I series.
