Four players are in line to debut at home for the Black Caps in their post-Christmas T20 cricket series against Sri Lanka

Wicketkeeper Mitch Hay, batter Tim Robinson and fast-bowling all-rounder Zac Foulkes have all made New Zealand appearances offshore.

Shock Indian Premier League selection Bevon Jacobs has earned his maiden Black Caps call-up.

Selector Sam Wells says the Auckland batter's been on their radar - but it was his first-class red ball form that clinched his selection.



Jacobs, Robinson and Foulkes all drop out of the squad for the subsequent ODIs against Sri Lanka, replaced by Will Young, Tom Latham and Will O'Rourke.
