Captain Tim Southee has completed confidence in Will Young and Will O'Rourke, who'll continue to cover major injury blows ahead of test one against Australia starting tomorrow in Wellington

Young's in for opener Devon Conway while O'Rourke remains on for his second test with Kyle Jamieson still out.

Southee says both players are in-form, with O'Rourke taking nine wickets against South Africa.



New Zealand have yet to decide whether Scott Kuggeleijn or Mitch Santner will make the final XI .

Australia will field the same team which lost to the West Indies in Brisbane.

Captain Pat Cummins says they aren't intimidated by the Basin Reserve's green pitch.
