Oct 26 2013: New Zealand captain Brendon McCullum and senior batsman Ross Taylor will skip next month's limited overs series in Sri Lanka to prepare for December's home tests against West Indies, the country's cricket board said on Saturday.
Top-order batsman Kane Williamson would lead the team in the three one-day internationals and two Twenty20 matches against Sri Lanka, New Zealand Cricket (NZC) said in a statement.
New Zealand are scheduled to host West Indies for three tests, five ODIs and two T20 internationals during the series, which starts on Dec. 3.
The Black Caps failed to win a test during their drawn two-match series in Bangladesh which ended on Friday. The teams now embark on three ODIs and a lone T20 international to conclude the tour.
ODI Squad: Kane Williamson (captain), Corey Anderson, Ian Butler, Anton Devcich, Grant Elliott, Tom Latham, Mitchell McClenaghan, Nathan McCullum, Kyle Mills, Adam Milne, Colin Munro, James Neesham, Luke Ronchi, Hamish Rutherford.
