Kane Williamson's hip problem could force him into a potential change of fielding position

The Black Caps captain will miss next month's Twenty20 series against England with the injury.

Coach Gary Stead says some of the movements which are required when fielding in the gully playing for Northern Districts in the Plunket Shield may have aggravated it.



Paceman Lockie Ferguson will play the first three games, before making way for Trent Boult for the following two.
